SAIFA GOJU-RYU
(“Smash and Break”) it is necessary to consider attacks from the side in order to perform this kata. The striking techniques of Saifa are circular and so performed with the joints of the arm, wrist, elbow, and shoulder, all free of tension. Only at the point of execution are the joints locked and the muscles tightened, so effectively focusing all your power at the point of impact.
