Two Karate Throws: Pinan to the Front / "Naihanchi" to the Back

By Practical Kata Bunkai on

#naihanchi
https://www.iainabernethy.co.uk/ In this video we look at two complementary karate throws. We first look at a way of establishing a side-on grip. We then look at two throws that can be applied from that position: one if the enemy is leaning forward; the other if they are leaning backward. The leaning forward throw is found at the end of Pinan / Heian Sandan and it is also shown in some of the older texts. The leaning backward throw is a leg blocking throw and it utilises a leg movement very similar to that of Naihanchi / Tekki kata (the throw itself is not found in that kata). We then use shiko-dachi (square stance) or kiba-dachi (horse stance) to prevent the enemy from taking a corrective step and regaining their balance. The video also shows the teaching sequence as we moved from complaint technique to live practise of the techniques. As always, a short summary video can’t capture everything, but I nevertheless hope you find it interesting. All the best, Iain
