dbalsdon Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Are there any decent websites which have diagrams of nunchaku katas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YODA Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 I was once told by a fairly qualified source (Kanazawa Sensei) that there are no traditional Kata for the Nunchaku - only modern ones that have been made up with little basis in combat effectivenes. this being the case - why not make up your own?

YODA Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Maybe so Ad - but bet they've been put together recently. I could knock up a Kata for chucks in a couple of hours or so - people do it all the time for freestyle forms competitions.

YODA Posted April 19, 2002 Share Posted April 19, 2002 Actually - the reason I asked Kanazawa Sensei was that there are 2 Nunchaku kata in his book - "Dynamic Nunchaku" and I was interested in their history! They are called Bu Ho No Kata Shodan (which would suggest that there are more) and Ju Ho No Kata - I wonder if HE compiled them?
