Yes Bassai Dai nice kata too,remember when i was learning that for my 1st dan,my instructor told me that if i was not knackered after doing that kata i was not doing it properly!

Agreed, love Bassai Dai and Nijushiho too!

If was only allowed 2 traditional kata, it would be these 2 from Shoto-Kan

Definitely Bassai Dai!

I just learned it and love it, its so powerful and I'm always out of breath afterwards.

Got my grading tomorrow morning where I have to do it (Brown White) so a bit nervous.

As for the nerves Doctor,whenever I was grading I always found it was like going to the dentist,the thought of it was worse,once you are there and get started its not so bad.A previous instructor of mine once said to me before a grading,just treat it like another lesson.
