Hi folks.... newbie to the forums, so ber nice (please).
Details :
I've done martial arts for most of my life, prefering Shotokan and GoJu Ryu, yet picking up bits of White hand crane, Mantis, Judo, Almagamated Kickboxing and Boxing. The club I'm with at present instructs in Okinawan GoJu and Te, as well as Kobudo. It's great, and I'm improving on techniques that got sloppy over time.
yet I'm having a problem with the katas, as some of them are not Goju katas, infact, not even standard karate katas... we have one from aikido!
Question :
I am looking for information regarding the kata's we train in at my club. Below is a list of the kata;
San dan gi
Gekisai dai ichi
Gekisai dai ni
Pinan nidan
SaifaNaihanchi
Te ashi waza
Seiunchin
Sanchin Shisochin
Sanseiryu
Tensho
Seipai
Shin sai dai
Specifiaclly, any details pertaining to the origins, meastro/creator, styles that use it, years, what the name is meant to mean etc.
Any and all help would be appreciated!
Hope to here from you all,
Autocrat
