BASSAI-MAN Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 in shito ryu , we must learn a lot of katas i know 16 , but are more and im learning the differences on the bunkai of the katas of shito ryu and goju ryu , like saifa and seienchin, but i really really sure that if you dont know the bunkai of the kata then what are you doing , collecting unusless forms? , first learn bunkai then kata , competition kata is just estetic , is a game not a real figth. osuuu " with honoooooorrr" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
