Okinawan Funakoshi Niseshi Kata



Okinawan-style nisēshi kata of Master Gichin Funakoshi's karate lineage, taught to him by Master Aragaki (Niigaki). Niseishi is of the dragon style which teaches flowing movements and clever double techniques. This particular kata can be applied to the sai. 

I have illustrated two versions here, one in standard Okinawan style, the other showing a contrast between hard and soft techniques.
