Bunkai is deceptive
Next time you think something with the relative simplicity of Heian Shodan doesn’t have much to explore insofar as practical application is concerned, maybe you should think again. Patrick’s blog is always a really good source of information, but this is perfect timing, as bunkai has become a regular topic of exploration in class over the last month in particular. I’m finding the continuous exploration of this when performing and studying kata extremely fascinating. This post will also act as a bookmark for when I want to participate to bunkai discussions in class; should also be a really good resource for other students in class who might be interested too!
