No doubt one of my favorite katas.

I really really like your second application, using all those “blocks” offensively. If I may offer one hopefully constructive critique, I don’t think that step across is a very good choice for “open” distance because it’s not very stable and risks tripping yourself up. Again, I’m no authority on this specific kata but from researching and experimenting with others, Naihanchi/Tekki Shodan in particular, I’ve come to the conclusion that steps across should be interpreted as either foot sweeps to disrupt your opponent’s posture/balance and hopefully get them to the ground and/or stepping across to tie up your opponent’s leg(s) with your own to prevent them from stepping back away from you and regaining their own balance. I’d be curious what results you get with your offensive application from a much closer clinch range and if this concept works as well fir this kata as it does for Naihanchi/Tekki

Great video! I don’t know this kata yet, other than having seen it performed a couple times. What are the movements right before that turning big crescent kick/crescent step? The reason I ask is that through researching other kata, I suspect that most of the big turns in kata should be interpreted as throws and should not be treated as separate movements for a new attacker coming from that new direction. Something that helps me is to take the 1 or 2 movements right before a big turn and assume I’m supposed to be clinched up and grappling the opponent, and then maintain the grip while turning and using any accompanying leg movement as a sweep or something to take their legs out as the turn unbalances their upper body. Maybe I’m wrong but I’d be curious to see your thoughts and experimentation. Thanks!

So, what are the possibilities of hand attacks to the upper thighs?? Low abdomen, sure, but it seems blows to the upper thighs would severely impair forward momentum AT LEAST.

There are many good targets on the outer and inner thighs that can be struck with your hands. However, your legs are thick and most often to effectively activate the target, it takes considerable penetration with your hands (easier if you use your knees, shins, or feet). Techniques like the hook punch in Tekki can be very effective, or double actions like variations of the ex block. Using your lead arm with the downward block leaves very few effective options, in my opinion, especially in a back stance.

I kind of see your point but to me it is still a bit of stretching of the imagination to accept those first two interpretations. That said. what do I know?
