Wanshū (ワンシュー, also 汪輯)

The name Wanshū (汪輯) means "Wang's Series (or Form)" and refers to the diplomat Wang (1621 – 1689). Wang was the leader of a large ambassadorial mission from China, sent by the Qing government in 1683 to the village of Tomari.

The Wanshū kata was either created by Wang or composed by his students and named in tribute to him. There are two major versions of Wanshū kata: one taught by Master Ankō Itosu and one practiced and introduced in the Tomari region.

The Wanshū kata shown in this video is considered an Itosu-kei kata, meaning it was either created or primarily passed down by Ankō Itosu, although its origins are in Tomari-te.

Wanshū is also translated as "Oar in Deep Water," which may refer to the movements in which the karate-ka lunges in for an attack and quickly leaps away, like an oar plunged deep into the water and quickly emerging as the stroke is completed.

Shinsei (新生) Kata

Shinsei (新生, New Life, New Birth) is a kata created by Master Kenwa Mabuni. Shinsei is a summary of the katas Gekisai Dai Ichi and Dai Ni, and it also incorporates elements of Seienchin and Seisan katas. Kenwa Mabuni Sensei wanted to introduce the Nahate system to his students and believed that this kata would provide a better understanding of the advanced Nahate katas they would train in later. Shinsei kata demonstrates a special kind of calmness and elegance, and the techniques in this kata are very effective for self-defense.

Myojo (明 浄) Kata

Myojo is a term that translates to 'morning star.' Nevertheless, the kata's name was derived from the Japanese high school where Kenwa Mabuni Sensei instructed female pupils in self-defense. Later, he developed this brief kata, which he named Myojo. This kata incorporates techniques such as Ryote Furizuki, Ushiro Hijiate, and Sashite.

When you perform the same exercises repeatedly, your body adapts to the stress, leading to a decrease in results over time. By introducing variations such as different exercises, rep ranges, tempos, or equipment, you challenge your muscles in new ways, stimulating growth and progress. This not only keeps your sessions and workouts interesting and engaging but also ensures continuous improvement in strength, agility, endurance, and overall fitness levels.

Matsukaze (松風) Kata

Matsukaze 松風 (“Wind in the Pines”). Master Kenwa Mabuni renamed the kata Matsukaze from its original name Wankan, a kata practiced in Okinawa's Tomari region . Matsukaze is considered an intermediate kata in Shito-ryu. It includes both attacking and defensive strategies performed simultaneously at various stages. It is stated that the phrase "Wind in the Pines" implies strength but adaptability in the face of adversity, similar to a pine tree on top of a mountain facing strong winds. As a result, all movement is forward, either driving the opponent backwards or remaining still.

Naha-te (那覇手Okinawan: Naafa-dii)

Nahate originating in the city of Naha in Okinawa, Naha-te is one of the three major systems of Okinawan Karate (Okinawa-te), alongside Shuri-te and Tomari-te. While these systems share common roots, Naha-te distinguishes itself through its emphasis on strong stances, close-range techniques, and deep breathing methods.

Ananko (安南光), ‘Peace from the South’ is a kata from Tomari-te system. Its history in Okinawan Karate is relatively short in comparison to other kata as it was composed and created by Master Chotoku Kyan. Its meaning is “Light from the South” or “Peace from the South”, as it is thought to originate when Master Kyan returned from a trip to south of China (Current Taiwan).
