Whitefeather Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 (edited) Hey all,Couple questions for you:1)What is your favorite kata to use in tournaments (or just your favorite kata to do)?2)What is your favorite kata to watch?3)What is your favorite kata of all time?My favorite to do is Anan, to watch is Choshin, and my favorite of all time is probably Anan, although it is a hard call.

jion Posted October 18, 2005 Share Posted October 18, 2005 1) Since I don't like tournaments, I would say Empi is my favourite to do2) Any kata from Goju-Ryu or katas from other styles that are similar to my Shotokan katas3) Bassai Dai. And lately Tekki/Naihanchi Shodan, there's so much bunkai in that kata....probably the only kata you'll ever need.

Leopard claw Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 Rohai is cool, short, but very flowing. Also like Wansu! How many nuns could a nunchuk chuck if a nunchuk could chuck nuns? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JAKEHE3078 Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 My favorite Kata to do in tournaments is Sochin or Gankaku. But since Im a Kumite player I hardly compete in Kata unless it some * tournament.My favorite kata to watch is Meikyo since you hardly see it done.And my favorite Kata to practice is Kanku-Sho. You do not need to be flexible to do a Jodan (head kick), if your opponent is already on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do not need to be flexible to do a Jodan (head kick), if your opponent is already on the ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malanovaus Posted October 19, 2005 Share Posted October 19, 2005 My favorite katas to perform at tournaments are either Kata Seipai or Kata Shisochin. Kata Sanseiru might be one of my favorites as well. MalanovausOkinawan Goju-RyuKarate ni sente nashiThe answers are on the floor Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
