    Kusanku is without any doubt one of those Kata that has the most different variations. The only rival I can think of is Passai. The original Chatanyara Kusanku (which is practised in Matsubayashi Ryu and is to some now known as Kuniyoshi Kusanku), modern Chatanyara Kusanku, Chibana Kusanku, Matsumura Kusanku, Kanku Dai, Kanku Sho, Shiho Kosokun... The list goes on. According to Roland Habersetzer there are 13 versions of Kusanku.

      Uechi Ryu is originally from China and was brought to Okinawa long after Shuriteke, Nahateke, and Tomariteke were formed. The Tomarite family of styles died out, and Uechi Ryu filled that gap. That’s why it is one of the three main styles in Okinawa today. But Uechi guys would be lost in kata competitions, mainly because Uechi is brutal. I'm a Shorin Ryu guy, and I’ve trained some Uechi, and even the women were better conditioned than I was. I've done a lot more conditioning since then.

    • @avakinzerochill
      @avakinzerochill Місяць тому

      ​​ @Ronin-101 nah, that's not why. Wado isn't flashy at all. Honestly, it's probably lack of crossover. Uechi has 8 kata, and I think only like two - seisan and sanchin - are practiced in the accepted styles.

      A LOT of bunkai is manufactured nonsense. It's very rare for a kata to contain information useful in a modern era, while also imparting good fundamentals.

      @@Kamawan0 I would say ALL so called bunkai is nonsense. Unless it's obvious, like a punch or a kick. And that depends on the punch and the kick.

      I would disagree. Most kata, have good stuff in them.
      But it really depends how and when you use it and most importantly how you SEE it, since i have seen so many people take specific combinations and trying to aply them or teach them for situations where it does not make sense. Context is everything.

    Ive used Kishimoto No Kushanku on my recent tournaments because of its complicity and its Uniqueness and it is also similar to my favorite katas like chatanyara kushanku and Chibana no Kushanku and im not even sure if its wkf approved kata but since i saw a vid by Sandra Sanchez performing it i used it on my last tournaments

    It has the same jumping kick and landing on all fours move as Unsu. Noone I asked knows what it does supposedly represent: fighting styles don't care about the katas, and kata people don't care about the applications.

      The jump is only for athleticism. If people try to spin that the Unsu jump is a fighting move, well, ask to fight them and put them to the task of using it on you.
