Recommended Posts

Hopefully, many will enjoy this commentary video of Gankaku sho as done by Sensei Paul Walker...

As slow as he's doing this kata; what Bunkai did YOU see?

I thought they were pretty good thread ideas Bob. :) I don't know the kata and we don't have the concept of bunkai in my school but I was waiting to see what people thought of. Why don't you get the ball rolling and suggest some ideas of what you see?

It's not bad Bob, it's just that it is hard enough to understand / realise this stuff in the dojo, let alone over the ether.

I'd been shown by someone once how the ready position, with the hand over the fist, is like a move where someone grabs the lapel, and its a techique to secure that hand, and then slam it down as a control technique.

We do a similar wrist-twisting motion in Yoo-Sin, simulating a wrist locking motion. The manner he brings it around, from the top, seems odd to me, though.

I see from the elbow strike, into two hands grabbing the head, then swinging and thowing the opponent down across the leg as a sweep.
