JoeDeezy Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I have a version of it that is not very good. I was wondering if anyone here had a good write up of Book Set. I imagine it varies now as well between lineages. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordtariel Posted January 12, 2007 Share Posted January 12, 2007 I can't think of any but the web is a great resource for that sort of thing. Do a search on youtube and google video for the specific kata name for video. Some will be garbage, but usually you can find one or two gems out there. There's no place like 127.0.0.1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aruder Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 If you look online, be sure that it is your style's particular version of the kata.Katas like the Bassai and Naihanchi series are common to several styles, but they have many individual diffrences Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
granmasterchen Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 what aruder says is very true you will definitely be surprised on how many different versions of a single kata there are That which does not destroy me will only make me stronger Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cross Posted January 13, 2007 Share Posted January 13, 2007 When i used to do kata i found it useful to video myself doing each one has i learned it.If you have the change to do that you could start up your own collection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baronbvp Posted January 16, 2007 Share Posted January 16, 2007 I have a fantastic DVD of my 6th DAN renshi doing excellent versions of these Shorin Ryu kata: Basic stances, strikes and blocksKihon 1-6Fukyu ShodanFukyu NidanNaihanshi kataPinan kataWansu kataAnanku kataIt is available from him on the web at http://www.cranekarate.com/index.html for about $40 plus $5 shipping. I used to watch them and write down the steps (with my own notes added) in my training journal so I could practice them with and without the video. I still have them and find them very valuable. Only as good as I make myself be, only as bad as I let myself be.Martial arts are like kinetic chess. Your move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andrew_Patton Posted January 28, 2007 Share Posted January 28, 2007 I've always taken time after classes (okay, mainly seminars) to write down everything I could remember of what we learned OR video myself or someone else doing what we learned for future reference, it's always a good idea.
