JR 137 Posted September 29, 2015 Share Posted September 29, 2015 To YOU, what makes a Kata seem unique?Even in learning and training in Kata outside of the Shindokan circle, I don't find them unique at all, just other ways of movements. I don't think that the big jump towards the end of Unsu, which is NOT a Shindokan kata, wasn't unique, just different. However, my eyes lite up when I first saw it executed because I was awash of the many Oyo moments and possibilities that I'd discover over time. I took the OP question as only practiced by your school/style; not unique in the sense that there's nothing out there like it. Not that I thought you directed that question to me.Unsu is a great kata to watch. My old organization did it at either sandan or yondan. To the best of my knowledge, Seido doesn't have it in its syllabus. I really wanted to learn it. Perhaps one day when I've mastered every kata I'm responsible for lol.

I was wondering how someone can view a kata within their own style as unique, thereby, I don't view any Shindokan Kata unique. Me not viewing Shindokan Kata's as unique, maybe I'm missing something in Shindokan Kata's that other see from their styles Kata list. **Proof is on the floor!!!
