Naihanchi Shodan is our first Kata. It focuses on a linear plain while staying in a horse stance. Teaching you how to express your power in a whip-like manner generating the power through your legs, rotating through the waste, and expressed through the arms and hands.
This Kata teaches limb control, close-quarter tactics, and balance disruption. If you were to only know one Kata inside and out this would be an excellent one to study!
