Well you say it isn't a Wado Kata, but there is at least one senior Wado instructor that I know of that includes this Kata in his book.

Go= 5

Ju= 10

Shi= 4

So together they mean 54 (a mathematical factor of 108). So nothing to do "necessarily" with the correlation of the ryu-ha names of Goju / Shorin Ryu. If that was what you were eluding to.

Naihanchi 1-3

seisan

Rohai

Passai sho & dai

Hakutsuru ( several different ones)

sanchin

These are the Kata's the I perform on a regular basis. their are others I work including weapons also.

My question is how many of you work with the kata's, and have practical Bunkai for them ?

Practice makes permanent, not perfect.

We do a lot of kata work, but we also do a lot of bunkai. I can explain and demonstrate the bunkai for almost all of the kata that I know.

How many do you do well though?

Kata or bunkai for the kata?
