Video Transcript

"How are you doing? My name is Qaeem, I am going to be demonstrating Shorin-Ryu Karate. In Shorin-Ryu Karate today, I am going to be demonstrating H-Kata3. H-Kata3 has all the blocks and punches that we have just finished demonstrating. It has the rising block; it has the middle block and has the low block. It has the high punch, it has the low punch and it has the middle punch. It also has your forward stance and your horse stance. In this kata you will see all those movements and those kicks and all that put into one. So when you learn or you practice, you master all those technique, this is the kata that you are going to do to practice and put them all together. Once again, you are going to start on the ready position. You are going to bow, which is also called ?? (050). You are going to start out in your horse stance, X block, X block down. Then you are going to step left, down block, forward stance. Stepping forward, you are going to reverse punch with movement into a forward stance. You are looking over your shoulder because you are coming behind. You are going to do a downward block with your right arm. Then you are going to go back into the forward stance stepping forward. Looking over your shoulder, you will be coming down the middle, stepping forward. Looking over your shoulder, you are going around, you are going to do the middle block and finish out with a reverse punch. Looking over your shoulder, middle block, stepping forward, reverse punch, coming back down the center, middle block, going all the way down looking over your shoulder. Coming around, rising block, stepping forward, punch, come around, rising block, stepping forward and punch. You are going to finish off in your horse stance. Come up to the ready position. That is H-Kata3. My name is Qaeem on behalf of Expert Village, thank you for watching."
