list of your katas really confused me, i couldn't figure it out what style you practice, do you open your Seisan kata with 3 steps and closed fist?do you have a compelete list of your school's katas? I practice Kobayashi Shorin Ryu. All of the kata that I know of is as follows: Empty Handed: Kihon Shodan, Nidan, Sandan, Yondan, Godan Naifanchi Shodan, Nidan, Sandan Pinan Shodan, Nidan, Sandan, Yondan, Godan Itsou no Passai Matsumura no Passai Kusanku Sho Kusanku Dai Tensho Bo: Gyosho Sai: Ichi no sai I'll post a more complete list after I go back to class And as seisan goes, yes, it starts as you suggested. I've posted a video clip as done by my class here. I have video of several other kata if anyone wants to see them, but they must let me know before I post them on the interenet. first i thought your style is a mixed of Shuri and Naha-te but , obviously your Seisan kata is a Shuri-te, although there sames to be a missing part toward the end( Seisan is so old that there are many different versions),what i don't understand is Tensho among all of these Shuri-te katas. thanks for the upload, if you got a chance let me see your Kihon #5,Matsunura Passai, Kusanku dai and Tensho.
