Naihanchi Shodan Practical Karate Bunkai

In this video I demonstrate various applications from Matsubayashi Shorin Ryu Naihanchi Shodan. These applications are an evolving set of techniques and principles obtained through cross training in various arts and combat sports. Cross training informs my Karate, it gives it spice, flavor and sparks understanding. When you spend enough time in an art, you begin to see more similarities in other arts and combat sports than differences. Then, and only then, real conversations and learning can happen. Get out there and cross-train folks!

⚠️D I S C L A I M E R⚠️
This is my own personal training routine and may not be suitable for you. It is strongly recommended that you consult with your family doctor before beginning any exercise program. By engaging in this training routine, you agree that you do so at your own risk.

Superb video about the way to use Naihanchi Shodan, Motobu Choki was an avant garde.

[danielchau]

Great video. I can’t wait to see more content

[maxventura]

When you study any Kata you soon realize no move is wasted, anything has a purpose and a meaning.

[victorsegovia]

greetings from Venezuela, sensei. I may be a simple blue belt from shito ryu but I think every karate warrior can learn a lot from his brothers and even from others styles, and always trying to be a good person

[falkschiffner]

[makenjikarate]

[maduroholdings]

I love this Kata jt na the only karate kata I know and practice

[kostasnikolopoulos]

I don't know if naihachi is the essence of karate but I sure know that really works

[Leonardo-bowf]

Does katas have any set applications of any technique at all or does the applications vary from student to student all of the time?

[ronan]

One of my favourite kata, shame that many styles including one of the styles I trained with for over 40 years have abandoned it.

So-called Progressive karate styles, some of them should be abandoned

[tacticaltemplar]

Great applications! Out of curiosity, which style of karate does this version of Naihanchi come from?

[matthewbaumann]

What does the opening move mean? I notice Tekki Shodan is different.

Карате это борьба. Напоминает самбо и дзюдзюцу. В карате ката, первое движение защитное это означает зашифрованное борьба. Удары в карате мало и служит как дополнением но не как основным. Основа карате это броски, захваты и удержание. Карате, больше похож с такими стилями китайских ушу как цин-на и шуайдзяо. Я говрю не современном карате а настоящем старым окинавском карате.
