I have just started to learn this kata. It's the first new kata I have tried to learn since I went through Ji'in many, many years ago!

I am finding it hard to grasp this kata, the mix of hard and soft I just can't get into my head!

From what I have learnt so far, it's a lovely kata, just wish I could get it mastered.

It is a nice kata. We were working this during my last promotion while the seniors decided out fate and talked to each person who tested. I couldn't get it with this one either. But the one teaching us this kata allowed me to video it. Some day I'll start putting it together.

Just wondering what rank it this kata normally taught in your system?

It is getting talked about as a black belt kata, quick look at the KUGB grading syllabus, it's a 2nd-3rd dan kata!

My instructor requires his students to know every kata in our system before he will even test them for shodan. Our Gojushiho tends to be taught somewhere around 3rd or 2nd kyu, typically. It's a very awkward kata, for me, so i feel your pain.
