KURURUNFA KATA GOJU RYU KARATE by Davy Wijaya Sensei

⛩🇯🇵⛩
Kururunfa (久留頓破)
“Holding on and Striking Suddenly”.
Kururunfa’s kanji is made up of four characters.
* The first – Ku – is translated ‘long’ (or always).
* The second – ru – as ‘hold’ (or still).
* The third – run – as ‘sudden’.
* and its fourth – fa – is translated as
‘tear’ (or break – similar to the fa in Saifa).
This reinforces the quintessence of the
kata which is of remaining calm and
holding still while awaiting a committed
attack, which, when it comes, is countered
by rapid evasion and answered by way
of kicks to the knee, kakate (hooking,
grabbing techniques), palms strikes,
arm breaks and takedowns.

Kururunfa’s senjutsu of tai-sabaki
works equally well at close range while
defending against a grab or hold.
Even when being wrestled, a competent
practitioner of Kururunfa will be able
to use kakate (grabbing techniques)
combined with a swift shifting of the
body to take control of an opponent’s
centre of gravity.

Combining hard striking attacks
such as the Kansetsu-geri (joint kick),
Mae-geri (front kick) and close hand
punches with softer open hand
circular techniques for attacking,
blocking, and controlling the
opponent, including joint locks,
grappling and throws. 👊
