“Bunkai-Jutsu” is the analysis of the karate katas (forms) and their application in real combat. The fighting applications of the katas is one of the most fascinating – and sadly misunderstood – aspects of karate practice. These DVDs are a must for anyone who wishes to practice karate as a complete and practical fighting art, regardless of style.

Volume two covers Naihanchi (Tekki) and Passai (Bassai-Dai). Today, Naihanchi / Tekki is often undervalued due to its simplistic appearance. This DVD shows the highly effective close-range fighting applications of the form and reveals just why the kata was so highly regarded by the masters of old. The second part of the program covers Passai / Bassai-Dai kata and demonstrates the strikes, throws, takedowns, locks, neck-cranks, chokes, combative strategies etc that have made this form one of the most popular in the history of karate.

This program shows both Naihanchi / Tekki and Passai / Bassai-Dai performed slowly and at normal speed. There then follows in-depth instruction on the practical fighting applications of each kata (including ‘style variations’).

• Naihanchi / Tekki
• Passai / Bassai-Dai
Running Time: Approx. 1 Hour 30 Mins

The DVDs are not only great; they are the best instruction videos I have ever watched. I own many karate training DVDS, but yours really out shined all the others. I just wanted to thank you for the great DVDs!!!" - Troy Lovell, Clarkesville, USA

REVIEW: "Regular readers of "Traditional Karate" will remember that we gave Volume One of this Series a glowing review and Iain Abernethy stays with the winning, no nonsense formula for this volume. Abernethy imparts a great deal of knowledge fluently, discussing the reason for each turn or movement in great detail, not only explaining the practical effectiveness of the techniques but also the defining principles behind them. Thus, through repetition, reinforcement and lucid narration, he once again demonstrates that effective self defence can be found within Karate . As with Volume One, this is real value for money, wall to wall technique from a man who obviously has a real passion for his karate, and at a time when self-defence concerns are prevalent, he proves that this traditional art can cut it as a modern fighting system." - Traditional Karate Magazine
