I practice Kata before (almost) every training session when I get there early enough (which is almos all the time). I try to include most the Heian Kata at least every other time to encourage the lower grades by showiing them that the shouldn't be neglected after their grading use has "passed". I practice my Tekui/Favourite Kata at home in sections - as well as in the Dojo before/after Class. I practice a couple of kata by visualisation each night before trying to drop off to sleep  Currently working on Jion and Gojoshiho-Sho because I like them (and Nijushiho and Sochin for future Grading purposes) Jim |

He chuckles like a little kid on cider. cool. The reference to weddings was a bit of wild card, but you never can tell. I can only find one sochin video, it doesnt show it very well What kata (s) did Dave J do last weekend? |

Didn't know that you's invented Tekki Moley - you must be EVEN older than I look ?   Is Godan Grading Kata "your choice/Tekui" then Moley - thought Sochin was one of the selection for Yondan ? Jim |

The footpath was also great for practising my shuto's |

Didn't invent Tekki Jimmy But Was the first (DRUNKEN) idiot ever to attempt it on the bridge in Edinburgh. Didn't know that you's invented Tekki Moley - you must be EVEN older than I look ? Is Godan Grading Kata "your choice/Tekui" then Moley - thought Sochin was one of the selection for Yondan ? Jim |
