GEKISAI DAI ICHI GOJU-RYU
A first insight for starters in this martial art. This was developed around 1944. This kata is called Shinsei in Shito-Ryu and Fukyu Kata Ni in Matsubayashi-Ryu.
Emphasis is put on smashing the legs with Gedan Barai, attacking using Nae Geri, Empi Uchi, Uraken Uchi and Jodan Yoko Sto Uchi. Breathing should be natural with emphasis on hard and soft flowing movements and body co-ordination.
Designed to introduce fundamental attacks, stances and three basic blocks - Jodan, Chudan and Gedan.
