This video shows a bit of application of Itosu no Passai kata (a close relative of well-known Bassai Dai). The explanation to the movements comes from my bunkai research in Muidokan, aimed at understanding the true meaning of kata (hontou bunkai 本当分解). For this video, I had the collaboration of Nicolás Pérez (@fistofshuri), who performs the kata with excellent technique. In the application breakdown shown in the last part of the video you can see a bit of the amazing logic and effectiveness of the classical kata of karate. Nothing in the kata is wasted, everything has an important function and it works for real! This is really a very small bit of what I have to show. Do you wanna see more? What other kata applications do you wanna know more about? * By the way, in this video I have changed a small detail of the application in comparison with the kata. Did you spot what it was? I've simplified it a little bit in order to teach in my seminars to large
