Shihohai Kata

[kev7476]

Hi,

 

I was wondering if anyone has seen an online resource for the Shihohai Kata. We have been learning it and I would like to have a reference for it.

 

I was also curious how popular this kata is and what style it came from.

 

The way we have been taught the kata we are stepping up with the left foot at the end which puts us in a different position from where we started(one pace ahead). I was under the impression that we should be starting and ending a kata on the same spot so this seems wrong to me. Any thoughts?

I do not know the origins of this Kata, but in our school we step back at the end, so you end where you start.

 

I searched high (no pun intended) and low for this kata online and could not find anything. I found several others though.
