I like Kanku Dai.

The past is no more; the future is yet to come. Nothing exist except for the here and now. Our grand business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what's clearly is clearly at hand...Lets continue to train!

LOL ! I just posted in the other thread and then saw this !

Kanku sho is my favourite these days but my favourites change every once in a while .

Hangetsu is always up there , even if I don't do the whole kata I usualy the first 3 moves over and over before the start for warm up and breathing and kime , to me it is like going in slow motion how giving my mind time to evaluate the connections of muscles and limbs of my entire body , when I do the whole kata the second part of the kata when in fast mode like those three blocks and punches are the extention of those three slow moves in the beginning .

So if I get the first 3 right usually the 3 fast ones would effective too .

I love so many of them , unsu ,sochin ,empi , niju shiho ,hain godan and shadan .

Best way to find out how competent and able a karateka is to see him do hian shodan !

Any one even a yellow belt can do hian shodan , but how you do it is what matters .

it is a great kata for even a 4th dan to practice and tune up their techniques .

Like our sensei used to say no matter what grade you are in karate you must always pay the karate tax in your training and karate tax is basics . but as you progress in grades you do less and less , up to black belt .if you start by 100 % tax when you are a white belt by the time you reach shodan it had dropped to maybe %50 and after second dan it maybe % 30 but perhaps it should never reach less %20 .

never give up !
