McNerny Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Hello, I'd have to say my favorite kata right now is Sochin. I also like Gankaku and Empi, though. Well, come to think of it, I like them all. Later. A good technique is beautiful but a beautiful technique is not always good. -Hirokazu Kanazawa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emma Posted August 25, 2005 Share Posted August 25, 2005 There are so many different kata's and all with amazing moves and we all experience them in different ways. How do martial artist's remember everything? and it might be only a split second, before someone else counter attacks you/ us first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shotokan Man Posted August 27, 2005 Share Posted August 27, 2005 does anyone know unsu?i think that's a brilliant kata just for the sheer variety of moves involved The less effort, the faster and more powerful you will be. Bruce Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmantim Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Wansu is by far my favorite empty hand kata.....I only know 1 weapons kata, so it would have to be tokumine no kun. "Pain is weakness leaving the body".....my Makiwara tells me so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bagpuss Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 Nijushiho... by far, the moves are great and the bunkia i have for it works good too.https://www.wlsa.bravehost.com https://www.wlsa.bravehost.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
znra251 Posted August 28, 2005 Share Posted August 28, 2005 i'd have to say my favourite kata is either ji'in or meikyo. both have a real spiritual feeling about them, a clarity of mind and peacefulness and yet some devestating movements. ji'in's knifehand strikes to the shoulder region are notable.to see videos of these kata check out https://www.karateonline.org some of the performances on this site are truely amazing. especially jonatan mottrams. (he is commonwealth champion now so they shold be!!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
