In this video we explore some of the bunkai of the kata Chinte (“Unusual Hands”); specifically the circular arm motions followed by the double uchi-uke and “crane stance”. Throughout the kata we see a lot of attacking weak areas. This sequence sees a method of getting behind the enemy so a knee strike can be delivered to the tailbone (coccyx). As always, great care must be taken when practising such methods.

All the best,

Iain
