Darce Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 Doesn´t it contain some kind of a jump, too? Shukokai Karate, Orange belt ( 7. kyu) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sho-ju Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 Amongst other interpretations, this kata contains several circular strikes, such as hook punches and uppercuts. Any comments? could also be used as grappling...grabbing the hair, twisting, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shorinryu Sensei Posted October 24, 2003 Share Posted October 24, 2003 There's also a leg grab/arm grab then toss them on their head combo in the bunkai. The fist double block for instance..opponent right kicks first (you block with left arm) and right punches (you block with right arm), you lift the leg and take his right arm across his body at the same time...dumps them on their noggin. My nightly prayer..."Please, just let me win that PowerBall Jackpot just once. I'll prove to you that it won't change me!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cymry Posted October 24, 2003 Author Share Posted October 24, 2003 If there is a jump in a kata, it can often mean there is a throw. Like in Heian Godan, there's the 180-degree jump into a low crouching "X-block". One interpretation of this is a shoulder throw, followed by a cross arm choke.

cymry Posted October 25, 2003 Author Share Posted October 25, 2003 Do you have an application for the first three movements of this kata. One of mine is stepping to the outside of your opponent, then hikite while striking to the jaw with your forearm. Then right hook punch to solar plexus, and left hook to the temple to finish off.

cymry Posted October 25, 2003 Author Share Posted October 25, 2003 Or left uppercut to jaw, right hook to solar plexus, then tkae him down by pushing his head back with your forearm while sweeping (like the clothesline in pro wrestling). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G95champ Posted October 25, 2003 Share Posted October 25, 2003 I like the palm strike to the groin and the smashing of the (well you know) at the end. (General George S. Patton Jr.) "It's the unconquerable soul of man, and not the nature of the weapon he uses, that ensures victory." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
