Tekki Sandan Kata (Naifanchi Sandan): performed slowly by André Bertel

- In this video I am doing Tekki Sandan Kata (Naifanchi Sandan) slowly. This was during my warm-up, two days ago, on December 22nd, 2022.
The rendition I'm doing is the Shotokan (old JKA style); however, my version here has personal influences/tweaks from Asai Tetsuhiko Sensei, Osaka Yoshiharu Sensei, and other seniors here in Japan. Moreover, in accordance with such tuition, I've also adapted my form in accordance with/for optimization of the various OYO (Practical applications) of each movement.
To do this without compromising kihon is the essence of kata being trained/practiced as Budo/Bujutsu as opposed to being an empty shell of itself. In this way, Kihon, Kata and (Jissen) Kumite are one, which results in kata being 'fighting forms' valuable for actual self-defense training. Needless to say, this is not mainstream karate now but must be preserved.
The three Tekki Kata each contain numerous effective Oyo-Waza; however, what matters (like all other karate) is that they become reflexive and adaptive in any circumstance. Needless to say, this is imperative in all unarmed fighting arts, and the reason why contemporary Shotokan karate is mostly ineffective.
The path of true karate is a narrow one which few wish to travel, but those who do are greatly rewarded by its extreme efficiency and meaningful depth.
While this video is merely Tekki Sandan performed slowly, some subtle old school variations are shown. For those who are studious, you will find them,

Thanks for all the kind messages. In this session I used Tekki Sandan as my warm-up. If you read the comment under the video and/or corresponding post on my blog it will supplement the understanding of the video. All the best from chilly Kyushu, Japan.
Saluti dalla NZ. Ti ho incontrato e allenato un paio di volte a Chch ciirca 15 anni fa , passa il tempo eh? . La ex moglie di Maurizio Marangoni, Geraldina, non so se ti ricordi di me... Sei un vero guerriero !! Vorrei riprendere ad allenarmi alla mia veneranda eta', ora cerco tra i tuoi video come allenarsi per seniors dopo anni di stop and un po' di artrite... :-) OSU
Wow! Thank you for this Sensei! For me this is the most difficult Tekki and seeing you break this down to its slowest execution was just what I needed! Much respect to you!
After nearly 40 years of karate, I'm more and more interested in practicing kata slowly and mindfully as well as fast and powerfully. Amazing execution as always.
ありがとうございます！！ Thanks for the post and points. I agree with a variety of practice modes. One thing we do here is practice kata slowly focused on ‘precision for effectiveness’ and environmental awareness, then go hard out on-full speed-on the bag (etc).
There are many benefits from such practice, both technical form, explosive power and so on.
All the very best from Japan.

Perfeito ! Oss !
I know its slow motion but the way every motion, every stance and technique lands or are positioned perfectly. Beautifully performed sir.
Thank you Sensei for this educative video. The slow movement helps to understand each step. Hope to see Tekki nidan slowly like this video.
Thank you again 😊
beautyfull... OSS
Wonderful! Thank you Sensei! I see some interesting variations from modern style which reflect how I was first taught back in the 1970's. It is good to see that these variations are not "wrong" but rather improvement on modern "dancing kata". OSU!
Really useful to have this kata shown in slow time. I'm sure I've been omitting some technical aspects of the kata so I'll be looking at this in detail in order to improve. There is always an opportunity to learn and improve. Osu.
Thank you, Sensei, for posting this. One of my favorite kata. Expertly done of course! OSU!
Osu Etienne. It's great that a Tekki is one of your favorite kata as the applicative depth is pretty much unequalled. Greetings from Japan.
The First 20 Seconds were so impressive.
Instantly liked it Sensei!
Thank you so much sensei for such meaningful info OSU
Excellent form!
Il kata preferito di sensei Kase.
Very very good.....Osu!
Oss Sensei,
Vielen Dank!!!
素晴らしいです！ありがとうございます。メリクリスマス。
After some hard core snow shoveling and alpine ski, I am practicing Junro Yondan now and took a break to watch you new video! I'm stuck home for Christmas because of a huge snow storm here in the Laurentians Mountains, Québec, we got more than 80cm of snow. I heard there was snow in Osaka too.
Nice ref to Nakayama sensei video at the beginning (with that performance on the suspension bridge lol)! ;)
押忍!!! Thank you very much, all the best for the new year!!!
Excellent as always André. We wish you and your family a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. Hopefully we'll see each other again soon 🙂
Hello from algeria .OSS
OSU!!!
Sensacional sensei! Oss
⛩
Buena técnica oss
That's great
The main difference I noticed with Kanazawa sensei is the position of your fist at 0:54 (mid-knuckles down instead of tetsui) I wonder what is the bunkai for this?
Greetings and thanks! Yes, SKIF teach this waza as a strike.
I was taught and teach this as ‘neck wrap’.
Naifanchi/Tekki for us (IKS) are our tanden kata; furthermore, and more relevant to your question: ‘infighting kata’.
Kindest regards from Oita City, Japan
