for nearly fifty years I have breathed these heavenly arts. Unfortunately this is kata as theatre, not as the masters of Okinawa Te created it. Whilst it looks "good", it has no bearing on the real martial art as it was meant to be. One must go back to the Original Okinawa Te to understand it, not something that was created for competition. As one who knows what the secret techniques are, this kata does not have them.

Its defence against a staff.

The opening moves of the kata are designed to take a staff; you don't start with one, and have to imagine you have one throughout the remainder of the Kata. I imagine if someone tossed you a staff after the tiger mouth blocks 2nd move in, you'd be set to rock though. :-)

This is so clearly a staff kata - why does no-one do it with a staff?
