“Shotokan Karate: Advanced Kata, Volume Four” S:1 E:2 Kanku-sho

S:1 E:2 Kanku-sho Kanku-sho develops mobility with its many sliding actions and two very difficult jumps. The subtle changes in distance are useful practice for all aspects of karate training but are especially useful for sparring practice. It is a less common variation of Kanku-dai. The kata is demonstrated by Joel Ertl.
