Harkon72 Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 Pinan Yondan is my best Pinan Kata because it has power and control, speed and focus, strong stances and turns, the bunkai is good, open to the Karateka for application, it's the best for me, I love the last Kiai point with the Hiza Geri/Ni Empi/Shuto uke combination, magick! Look to the far mountain and see all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackKnight Posted October 13, 2013 Share Posted October 13, 2013 There isn't an option for "none" or "all."I don't have a favorite. They all have key concepts and techniques they are trying to convey. Tony Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sensei8 Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 Darn it, I needed Bob to teach me a Pinan kata! I will!!I love Pinan Yondan because it's got quite a lot of "meat" on its bone, and my oh my, the Bunkai/Oyo, are endless. So much so, that when I think that I've disected it throughly, I discover something new.Pinan Yondan for me please! **Proof is on the floor!!!

Wastelander Posted October 15, 2013 Share Posted October 15, 2013 I'm not particularly fond of the Pinan series, as a whole, but of the lot my favorite would be Pinan Yondan. There is some good stuff in it, but nothing that isn't in other Shorin-Ryu kata outside the Pinan series--it's very "Kusanku-ish."

muttley Posted October 16, 2013 Share Posted October 16, 2013 Mine would be Godan, I love the dynamics of it, the power in it's moves, it's just fantastic. I have to say however that I love all Pinan/Heian Kata and that as has been mentioned by others (not on here), that Itosu invented the series as a whole and not as seperate kata (the entire series put together forms the whole).
