The purpose of these videos is to track and share my progress in Shito-ryu karate. I wish I had begun this sooner as I am now 6th kyu, but I intend to release these at each rank moving forward.

Big thanks is due to my partner in this video as he had only been training for 2 weeks. Therefore my blocks, punches, sweeps, and takedowns are more on the gentle side.

I've also only been practicing this kata / bunkai for a few weeks.
