Practical Kata Bunkai: Shisochin

www.iainabernethy.co.uk/
This video looks at bunkai for a few sections of Shisochin kata. In particular, we look at the “signature sequence” of Shisochin both as it appears towards the start of the kata and with the additional entries and exits found toward the end. As part of this we also cover the bunkai for the “rising double elbow” and the end turn.
This video was filmed at a residential course in February 2015. This short clip does obviously not show all of the instruction, but we nevertheless hope you find it interesting and of value.
A huge thanks for your continued support of these videos!
Best Wishes,
Iain

Just fantastic!
I never realized the last part was a lock and a threw too!

I really like Ian’s interpretation of kata. Of karate in general. Wish I could find an instructor as good as him.

I have to thank you so much my friend. Your bunkai help me to develop a couple of nerve attacks and blood knockouts! Keep up the good work👍

Čia koncepciją aiškina. Ir mano kompe kaip tyčia garsas dingo.

Jis yra ne Goju-ryu, o Shorin-ryu karateka, tai dažnai nuinterpretuoja mūsų kata.
