Now that you've got a basic understanding of Kanshiwa Kata, it's time for some analysis and application of it's movements.


KANSHIWA BUNKAI

is the analysis and application

of Kanshiwa Kata

 

In our dojo, we practice several different versions of Kanshiwa Bunkai to explore and understand the mechanics and context of self-defense.

In the video to the right you'll see a dramatized performance of Kanshiwa Bunkai as a Karate Demonstration.
 

The next traditional exercise that you will be learning is called

KANSHU KATA
 

In our dojo, Kanshu Kata is nicknamed

"The Crane Kata"

 

In this "toolbox" you'll quickly discover fast and precise hand and leg techniques geared towards defending yourself against a stronger opponent.

The name


KANSHU

 

comes from combining the names of the first two Grandmasters of

Uechi-Ryu Karate

SHUshiwa and KANbun Uechi
 

The video and directions should help aid you in your learning process

This particular version of Kanshiwa Bunkai was created for this specific demonstration at a Karate Tournament.

As we hope the demonstration shows, the applications of the techniques in Kanshiwa Kata are as vast as the contexts in which you might need to use them.
