Oct 14, 2008 - It is also amazing to see how little has changed. This kata appears in many schools of shorin-ryu as Naifanchi of uncertain origins pre-dating Choki Motobu.

Oct 14, 2008 - This Isn't Heian Shodan (AKA Tekki Shodan)This Is NAIHANCHI SHODAN

Oct 14, 2008 - No, this isn't Heian Shodan. This is Tekki Shodan, which follows Heian Godan.

gamereaper888 Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - Heian And Tekki Are The Same Thing (AKA Means Also Known As)And You Are WrongThe Kata Order Is This:Heian (Tekki) ShodanHeian (Tekki) NidanHeian (Tekki) SandanHeian (Tekki) YodonHeian (Tekki) GodonThese Kata Were Created By A Man Named ItosuWho Also Taught Gichin FunakoshiAnd Gichin Funakoshi Created The Basic Katas(We Call Them The Taikyoku Katas)

Oct 14, 2008 - dude, youre hella mixed up. i think youre confusing heian and PINAN kata as being the same. Tekki kata correspond to Naifanchi kata and there are only 3

gamereaper888 Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - You Might Be Right, I Know Alot Of Kata And I Get Names Mixed Up, You Know What I Mean lolWhy Can't we Call The Kata By The Same Damn NameGOD, It's So Confusing lol

Oct 14, 2008 - Actually in Japan it is known as Naihanchi, but in western Shotokan Karate it is known as Tekki Shodan, So both names for it are correct, depending on where your from..My favourite Kata this one, apart from Empi.

maofas Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - Naihanchi = TekkiPinan = Heian You = Confused

Oct 14, 2008 - Heian kata are the first five kata learnt in trditional shotokan (after kihon), heian means peacful mind. tekki kata are learnt after heian kata at various stages, tekki shodan (first level) being the first, at 3rd kyu. This kata is Tekki shodan(Tek=Iron ki=horse) hence the kibadatchi used. Tekki and heian are not the same thing.

Itachiduden Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - dude, in Shotokan karate its BIG difference between heian shodan and tekki shodan! maybe they have other names on the katas in different styles!

Itachiduden Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - and after heian godon, comes tekki shodan! And i think i MIGHT know a BIT more of that than u! cuz im taking 1st dan in this style to christmas!

gamereaper888 Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - I Am Aware Of That, I Was Mixed Up, I Admitted My Mistake, And Am Done With This

frontor Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - Hello people the maker of shotokan karate is doing a kata and your arguing about a 13 year old snotball. Who cares about her. Dont post anymore comments about what belt you are, NOBODY CARES. Just enjoy seeing the master doing his art. :)

Oct 14, 2008 - Why do you fight in the presence of such a video?. Arent all martial arts brethren to each other?...Without one their is no unity. Martial arts is about unifying everybody under a set of codes and rules. There are only few of us left, we must all stick together regardless of style or rank.

Dustkicker009 Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - i know this kata as koshiki naihanchin, but with two mai geri. That must've been added later. This is such great footage damn!

Pikolow Says:

Oct 14, 2008 - A true warrior is not defined by a colored object which only holds his or her gee together.Funakoshi himself stated something to the effect of, "When a pacisonar obtains a black belt, NO ONE should know he possesses it."Those who take pride in possessing a belt which has the appearance of black, did not truely learn what 70% of Karate-Do is all about. They did not even learn the other 30% of what Karate-Do is about very well... which is their Kata.
