Konigbreaker Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 My sensei gave me some of this kata a few months ago as a gift. I have always been curious about this kata. I have never heard of it before, and I can't find anything about it on the web on any books. I saw one video of an "Anom" but there were major variations in that kata, and I can't find the video anymore.Does anybody know anything about this kata? It's origins, what it means, ect. Please, I am very curious. This is a signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P.A.L Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 i never heard of Okinawan kata name "Anom", may be you are reffering to "Anan". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ps1 Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 I think if you do a search for Anan, you will find your search more fruitful.Here's the best I've found. It has some variations, propably because it's a very high level competition.http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=8840350406353724468&q=anan&hl=en "It is impossible to make anything foolproof because fools are so ingenius."

P.A.L Posted October 1, 2006 Share Posted October 1, 2006 Anan was a chines boxing master , Anan is a Naha-te kata , the most famous Anan is Ryuei ryu version which won a world title (performed by sakamoto) Mabuni also had his version so shito ryu also practice Anan, Konishi learnet it from mabuni and adapted to Shindo jenin ryu as well.
