- ►SUMMARY:Here I demonstrate some options to the opening move of Naihanchi 1. Try them out and adjust accordingly to your style and own individual needs. Ensure you pressure test with equipment (gloves, pads, mouthguard etc.) and cross train with other arts and combat sports to find other applications. Explore the beauty of cross training to gain meaning of your own art, whatever that may be.

It's funny because when I look at Naihanchi katas online, there's so many varieties. So it seems like even just the kata has different interpretations. It makes a lot of these "stick to tradition" people have so much nuance even within their tradition. I love what you're doing with this video. I love videos trying to find function in form. Reminds me of Ando's video too.
🙏 Jerry! I look at all of these things as tools. You take it out and play with them. Figure out creative ways to make it work for you. And there’s no one stopping you from doing that. Unfortunately places due to please tell you how to practice these things which in my opinion is very wrong
As a Student of Shobayashi Ryu, Naihanchi Shodan isn’t so such a high step to your right BUT what I love is your explanation of how to use the kata’s opening for bunkai. I love how you express being open to use whatever your opponent gives you or whatever comes to mind. I love the the opposite elbow to the back of the head too. What a bell ringer that has to be!! Nice breakdown!
this approach is generally in accord with the method for interpreting kata put forward by Choki Motobu and Kenwa Mabuni. On the opening kick, Motobu says, "it should be understood that stepping forward (from cross-legged to character-8-stance) includes the meaning of kicking the enemy." So this interpretation is consistent with that view. However, Motobu says that the opening hand movement is simply a block: "At the time the right hand is stretched out and strikes, it simultaneously receives (defends) the enemy's attack. And thus, because it has the meaning of seizing the enemy's hand, you should turn your palm (vertically)." This is not consistent with the interpretation presented here. However, Mabuni says that each technique in the kata should be broken out and practiced individually, as stated here, and that each such technique should be practiced against a variety of attacks so the practitioner learns to apply it in a flexible manner. Thus, the interpretation presented here is not inconsistent with what Mabuni advises. Of note, however, Motobu says that the elbow strike is representational and does not actually mean that you should follow the block with an elbow strike. Rather, he says, "Note that in actual combat, you should not strike with your left elbow, but thrust with your left fist. Precisely because this is kata, it has to look good, and so that it conceals (the real combat applications). This is important to note."
We must be careful not to be carbon copy of the masters. I aim to be an individual inspired by the masters.
this kata is called "Tekki Shodan" in Shotokan :-) I am glad that I am doing exactly that... to "play" with the kata techniques .... great inspiration - thanks
Thank you so much for your kind words. I am glad to know you’re making connections to my material.
the interpretation of the crossover step made sense here. White Crane Kung Fu practitioners interpret the crossover step too as a leg trip or transition step, not a literal sideways stepping.
Awesome video!
🙏
This is the beauty of martial arts. There is crossovers and similarities more often than differences.
Excellent insights. True that behind the seemingly impractical and useless movements, katas hide in them many real fighting techniques. Shows your cross discipline experience. Great video.
Thank you sir
Excellent video! I agree with your analytic method for kata. I am a Goju Ryu practitioner and instructor. My teacher also does not follow the exact sequence of kata movements and analyzes each movement individually. I incorporate the same methodology into my own training.
Please continue producing this great content.
Tonbo Kenshi-kai Dojo Thank you so much I am glad you find some use for it. I would like to know more about how you train your forms as well.
Thanks for sharing, I always enjoy your content!
Cornwall Karate (UK) Thank you sir I really appreciate that. Please share some of the ways you train your forms.
Very very good stuff that opens up the mind to the possibilities and exploration in a reasonable approach pertaining to an actual fight. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you sir I appreciate that. Just sharing my trials and tribulations with my journey.
Great video!
@@GalinPanchev thanks brother. I appreciate that!
Excellent from Ann Arbor Michigan : Coach, use a boxer stance . Convert the naihachin stance . And integrate boxer fists techniques
Late to the party, as always. I enjoy you teasing out multiple applications for the techniques and using them out of sequence. People putting these together didn't intend to have a single application, and write sequence. They assumed we would be smart enough, and skilled enough to know to move to what works and follow the natural flow of the encounter.
Thank you for your comment! I look at all of these things as a toolbox. Take out the tool and try it out for various jobs. Some tools work great and some tools don’t you just have to try and maybe even modify the tool to fit the job if you can.
Amazing video! Can you do a tutorial of Naihanchi? I would love to learn how to do it!!
Absolutely! Noted for my film schedule. Thank you for expressing interest. Please subscribe to my channel for more videos.
This is amazing. Thank you
Thx tim
I love this!!!
Leonard Charles thanks man. What do you train?
I would suggest learning the Kata with knowledge of the possible meaning of each move, before venturing out to free style the moves. Naihanchi has built in response to Pushing, grabbing and Punching attaches.
Excellent advice! Thanks for commenting
Great video 👍🔥
Beautiful 😍work sir 👏
Thanks you sir. What did you like about it specifically? What connections resonated with you in your practice?
@@KarateUnity I have a black belt in shorin ryu. And I researched thr founder Master Masamurrah. The book I read stated that one can find all kinds of bunkai in this kata. The footwork is a little different the way I learned it. But everything else is the same. Plus I like 👍your title karate unity. These days ppl want to laugh at karate. Due to MMA etc. And commercial 🎨 lol kudos to you and your movement. Keep that fyah comming. Thank you ouss. If you know any federations out there let me know I am looking to be a member.
@@lrwhiteley I am glad you are diligent in your training. Keep up the studying. If you wish to supplement your training Email me to discuss karateunity@gmail.com
At least i am on the right track. Im mixing it with some silat movements that ive learned before i started karate. Trying to make sense of kata as a functional tool box. *applauses to the spirit against the dogma*
That’s how you do it my brother! It’s a Toolbox. Experiment, play, add, change, delete, and repeat.
Great analogy used encouraging others to “Take it for a test drive”. (To be creative) Loving your content. Question: l’ve heard that Naihanchi came from a much longer form, possibly broken down into 3 separate forms, and that it’s predesessor (a Chinese form) was named Dai Po Chin. Have you ever heard of this form? Thanks.
Hey Carlos thanks for the love brother! I heard of that theory where this form was a longer one. But I haven’t heard of the Chinese form you mentioned. I’d love to learn more about it though. Thanks again for your kind message. All the best and stay in touch!
Maybe Naihanchi Nidan and Naihanchi Sandan are the other two parts of the whole original form, non?
Superb, arigato sensei.
Thank you I am glad do you like it. What specifically about the video sparked your attention?
@@KarateUnity Sorry sensei, only just seen your reply.
I give myself a project in my training each year. A couple of years ago it was to make my left sided techniques as strong as my right side. After a year of working the left side, I was balanced up.
This year is to scratch the surface of understanding Naihanchi. It has always fascinated me, and this year I am practicing it every day and looking for new and varied bunkai such as in your video.
There are many reasons I got a lot from the video: The use of angles, the variety of hand techniques, the unbalancing techniques, the short range kicking techniques.
They will all go into this years training!
Domo arigato!
Good job you’re very good at kata
You know how to apply this on the wooden dummy and can you make a video on it?
Seth, thanks for the inquiry. Simply take the techniques and play on the dummy yourself. You’ll be surprised on what you come up with ‼️
Amazing! Suscribed osu🙇♂️
that is my school!!!1!!
same!!1!1!!
hi mr hansome
Realistic bunkai
Sir which stayl is yours
Thank you for your inquiry. It's a hybrid of everything I've learned. The kata demonstrated here is from Matsubayashi Ryu Shorin Ryu.
OSU 🙏
The best Bunkai vid I’ve yet seen
Thank you brother that means a lot
How could a short person succeed against a taller opponent in sparring, tournament, or street self defense fight
This is a great question. I’m not very tall myself, when I trained for tournament fighting, and during my Peak sparring days, I would train my penetrating Footwork to get in do some work and escape. So the key is footwork and working your defence head movement and crashing in skills
Wing Chun
Definitely influenced by it yes. This was part of my cross training in the past. So you will see in my expression lots of different arts in there. Including Boxing.
Great video!
Thank you Mark much appreciated
