This video looks at bunkai for the sequence in Nijushiho / Niseishi that begins with a rising elbow. That elbow is then followed by either a “lower block” and “hook punch”, or a “low punch” and “lower block”, depending on the style being practised. The video looks at bunkai for both variations.
While on the surface the two variations seem quite different, I would suggest that they are alternate illustrations of how the arm can be manipulated in order to further create and maintain a position of advantage.
This is often the case when we compare variations between kata. What we most frequently see is alternate expressions of common principles, or alternate ways of addressing the same issue. There is only one karate, but there are innumerable expressions of it. Looking at alternate variations of any given kata often gives insights in to one’s own version.
All the best,

a smart idea! especially that first application. I believe that it also acts as a dynamic fight!
I don't understand why so many are filming it. Surely they miss out on the whole point of the training session?? It reminds me of when I missed the solar eclipse because my boyfriend was trying to catch it on camera. Enjoy the moment, people!!
It’s because I asked them to :-) We’d done all the training and at the end I wanted to give them some “video notes” to help them remember all we had covered. I do that at most seminars. This is therefore them filming part of the quick summation I gave at the end as opposed to the actual training.
@@practicalkatabunkai that makes so much more sense :) loving your work, by the way. Just getting to grips with bunkai.
Very acurate explanation
But im wondering about similarities between nijushiho and sanseiru, given that both with niseishi have the same chinese Crane boxing root.
Got a few cameras on you haha
Damn you're fast. Had to slow down the video to understand XD
