welshdragon Posted August 22, 2005 Share Posted August 22, 2005 Kanku shoBassai Daii'm doing kanku sho in competition now, am doing it in the Shotokan cup next month. best for that kata is to get your sensei to looka t it and even got through it having it taken to pieces. thats what happened to mine!Bassai Dai was easliy my best kata, i won the students gold with it. you need a lot of spirit to carry that kata off, and the timing is essential. make sure your power is good, and your kimi is obvious. make sure that a judge cam see the difference between the strong fast movements, and the slower more tense techniques. again, use your sensei or a video camera.....that way you will be able to see hwere things need to be made more or less obvious!! and now the training begins...........

cleung Posted December 3, 2005 Share Posted December 3, 2005 Yup, videos and mirrors help as well as feedback from black belts since they will be the ones judging you. After 20 years of forms competition, I'm still using video all the time and learning something new about my techniques during each video analysis session.
