One Minute Bunkai: Naihanchi Shodan #3

One Minute Bunkai: This two arm technique is in all 3 Naihanchi Katas. Many interpretations show it as blocking two simultaneous punches but that is extremely unrealistic. In this application the "signature move is right at the beginning where both arms are parallel with the floor, this is where the actual technique occurs, everything after is optional and can change with the flow. This technique is also for catching a kick and can be used as an elbow break. Once again Naihanchi stands out as a supreme teacher of very effective fighting principles.
