André Bertel's KarateDo This site is based on my daily practice of traditional Shotokan karatedo. I’m a member of the JKA (Japan Karate Association) based in Asoshi, Kumamoto. More than anything else, unlike other karatedo websites, this page is primarily dedicated to training itself; that is, KarateDo as a vehicle for holistic development.
Monday, 26 May 2014 Unsu Kata: A generic outline
As you may well know from earlier posts, I recently switched back to Unsu (雲手) as my tokuigata. This occurred for a variety of reasons, but the most predominant of these were: (a) advice from Nakamura Masamitsu Shihan; and (b) directly pertaining to the first point... that “…the techniques/applications of Unsu really suit my small frame: in a selfdefence context”. Hence, today I thought I’d provide a broad outline of each technique in Unsu kata. Whilst this, by no means, completely describes each of the movements featured in Unsu, it does clearly establish `what is completed in each count’ (and how each action in the kata is 'formally labelled' in Japanese, including the tachikata or stances). All the very best from somewhere over the North Pacific, André. A GENERIC OUTLINE OF UNSU KATA
