Nice! Love the bunkai you present in the videos! I can really appreciate how you continually attempt to keep it practical! Bunkai always looks so fancy, but the fancy stuff doesn't work in a fight. ITS A FIGHT! Hair pulling, face scratching, groin smashing fight! Good stuff!! Keep it up Iain!
Get someone to stand behind you and lock you in a bear hug trapping both of your arms by your side. Now do only the first move of Tekki-Nidan, but very fast, and discover probably the most effective grab escape in a Shotokan kata.
Positive there's a wealth of experience in this video, and techniques to learn from. But would love to see it in good lighting, and from different angles... and to understand the actions explanation better.
Thanks for the kind words! Most of the videos I share for free on RUclips are not professionally filmed and hence they are what they are. Unfortunately, it’s not viable for me to spend a lot of time and money for RUclips. Since it was uploaded nine years ago, this video has generated a grand total of £28.37 i.e. £3.15 per year. If I was to pay for professional filming and a lot of time was spent editing on these videos, I would quickly find myself broke and unable to provide for me and mine. It’s a little different with DVD, download and some app content as there is the revenue to support better filming and editing for those. However, these are free to watch (if not entirely free to make) and hence people “get what they pay for”. I nevertheless hope people find the content useful and I accept that not everyone has the resources to pay for the professional material, which is why I also share stuff here. However, as I said at the start, they are what they are.
Fantastic stuff. I find the Tekki Kata's slightly more awkward to apply Bunkai to. Probably because I over complicate things. There is so much to take away from this. All of it actually. Thank you.

A most excellent video for showing the process of kata analysis!
Thanks sensei...hats off...so practical and realistic

As I guess but how if the opponent is stronger than us?
@@Br4m76 It works everytime, but it has to be the correct technique of snapping elbows up and lifting your weight off the ground when you bend knees.

This is a beautifully ugly drill. I loved it when you taught it in Burlington, Ontario (2018?). It's part of my curriculum now.
great analysis! 100 thx
Nice
