koji126 Posted January 6, 2003 Posted January 6, 2003 I havent done any martial arts in a while. Right now, im trying to remember all the kata and kihon ive done before I left. After that is done, I will be returning. At the moment however, Im real busy with my school work, so it will probably be a year until I can return. So if anyone out there can help me out, i would be very grateful. The style I study is shotokan.

rabid hamster Posted January 6, 2003 Posted January 6, 2003 I'm not too sure if this is what you're asking but I would recommend to try a book or video on shotokan karate and review the katas using that. It is only with the heart that one can see clearly, for the most essential things are invisible to the eye.

koji126 Posted January 6, 2003 Author Posted January 6, 2003 yeah i tried that site. i was hoping for pictures. are all the kihon from shotokan the same? i take funakoshi shotokan. my sensei is kyle funakoshi. i do have a video, but it only shows the katas from hangetsu and up. i dont know where to get the others. im looking for the videos with kenneth funakoshi, i have volume 3. im looking for volumes 1 and 2.
Pacificshore Posted January 6, 2003 Posted January 6, 2003 Since Century bought out Panther Videos, why not check out their website. I'm pretty sure they still carry the Shotokan videos be Funakoshi Sensei. Another source you can look at is https://www.martialartssuperstore.com they have a large selection of training videos at a lower cost. As far as the kihon goes, I'm pretty sure it's all the same in Shotokan. Di'DaDeeeee!!!Mind of Mencia
