Practical Kata Bunkai: Naihanchi Crash and Crank

This video looks at the opening motion of Naihanchi kata (and quite a few others) where the hands come up and pivot down. The first arm motion represents a “cover and crash” to be applied if the initiative has been lost and the enemy is raining down strikes. We then clinch so that the enemy’s ability to rotate, and hence generate power, is limited. This buys us a moment to get back into the fight and regain the initiative.
The first option the kata then gives us is to apply a neck crank in order to escape (the downward arm motion). In some versions of the kata this movement is followed by the head turning right then left. This represents an option should the crank fail: we can grind the head left or right to stop potential head-butts or bites.
Sometimes the kata is telling us to do “A” and “B”; other times it is telling us to do “A” or “B”. In this case we have an “or” and not an “and”.
This video is a short clip from a seminar in Meckenheim, Germany in May 2016. As with all such clips, it can’t cover all of what was covered, or how this short clip fits into the wider training methodology. I nevertheless hope you find it interesting.
All the best,

I laughed out loud when I saw this video. Not because it was funny, but because once you show the purpose of the opening move...it seems so obvious. But I would never have worked it out on my own. Thank you so much for putting these videos out there.
I'm glad you like it and thanks for the support!
Outstanding! I never really saw the value of Naihanchi before. Your imagination and creativity is inspiring.
Excellent as always Iain
I'm a bit late after 5 years, but im Traditional Taekwondo we have a lot of so called Hyongs (which are the equivalent of the kata in karate). I've found, that many movements are shared and that the same bunkai can be applied. If you'd like to deconstruct and analyze one of our hyongs, I'd very much enjoy to watch that video as well.
Thanks for your videos! Helped a lot! Keep going and enjoying what you do👍🏻🔥
Excellent teachings as always 🙏
Very practical application I certainly like this one
check modern MMA, whenever they clinch against the cage there is the fight for head position. The movement is pretty much the same is the grinding that you're doing with the head, combined diving with legs to keep the opponent pinned against the cage.
Thank you!
the start is Also a joint-lock as well
*PRACTICAL* :D thank you
good lesson
