Description

Welcome to this Shotokan kata course, the content contained in this course, is all the required kata from white belt to brown belt at EIKA. The video tutorials are highly detailed but easy to follow.These kata contain all of the basic fundamentals of shotokan karate. Try not to rush through the kata, spend on each move, fully understand the stances, techniques and meanings before trying to speed up.The first kata tutorial covers Taikyoku Shodan also referred to as Kihon kata. This kata has only two different techniques, they are oi tsuki (stepping punch) and gedan barai (down block). Along with the two techniques there are two body positions, they are shomen (square facing) and hanmi (side facing).We then move on to the Heian Kata series, where there are five kata ~ Heian Shodan, Heian Nidan, Heian Sandan, Heian Yondan and Heian Godan.Heian Shodan is the most basic of the five Heian kata and because it's very basic, many Dojo start with this kata and skip Taikyoku Shodan which is fine.The next four Heian kata use lots of different techniques and several simultaneous block and counter techniques. The five Heian kata are an extremely important part of Shotokan karate and should be practiced diligently.The seventh and final kata is Tekki Shodan, which is the first Tekki kata in a series of three. This kata is excellent at developing close distance striking. The techniques are short and fast, so to generate maximum power, the legs and hips need to be used.We hope you enjoy this Shotokan karate kata course. Oss!
