I love these flow drills I have to find some of these drills for isshin Ryu seisan I've been coming up with some applications myself and some have been taught I would just like to string them together
The application is way better than what anyone else has put out in TH-cam. How did you come up with this? Was this taught or have u developed this after careful analysis and self study? Osu
Love these videos sir, gives me lots of ideas I started asking questions of my Kata. How am i being attacked? Punch, kick, grab(upper\lower arm), A push? You can't assume every technique is just about punching and kicking. Could be a hard shove or limb(arm) grab and attempted punch. How am i defending?. Joint lock, Limb break, knee\shin strike..groin attack etc.. I try to remember. Just because I'm pointed in a direction doesn't mean the attack is from that direction.. The attacker may end up there. But, may start out behind me. I look at techniques in Kata. Ask. Is this a strike, Or block or joint lock..I look at how its done in Kata(could be in reverse order) block maybe a strike. A strike could be a trapping grab . if i try it as a block and it some how directs the attack into say, my groin..then i toss that idea. then i look at any attributes that may lead me to other techniques like joint locks, or limp\collar bone strikes. To me a fight\defense against, needs an A, B ,C flow. (A)start of the fight (knowing you just got in one) (B)reacting to it(controling the attack(er)trapping etc. (C)then subduing the attacker( knocking him out, snapping his limb, leg\arm. or pinning him to the ground) IF a kata technique leads me back to (A) I have done something wrong ..If you don't control and subdue an attacker you're back to square one. Longer a fight lasts, more likely the attacker will figure you out..5 seconds is about as long as i want any fight lasting 2 secs is better
I'm looking at that X stance at the end of the Kata after the low kick to the knee. I'm thinking that's either a sweep or low kick to the ankle or inner thigh?
Great video. Seisan is my fave kata, and I love the approach you've taken. Always enjoy Ian's vids and this one really made me smile. Thanks Ian!
your bunkai is really making sense and explains the techniques very good. as always I enjoyed your video
Haven’t done traditional for long time, great explanation and exploration. You put in some real research! Thanks

So ruthless!
Any thoughts about the bunkai of Uechi Ryu’s Seisan jump?

Lots of Isshinryu’s Sunsu here! I’ve never noticed that before!
Why is the kata done slow ?
??? What do you mean?
"Goju guys are thugs"... I need that on a t shirt!
I’ve started realizing the same thing after delving more into the Goju kata. Evil some of the things in those kata
