Nijushiho is a beautiful kata featuring movements that are often said

to resemble waves breaking against the shore. The modern-day version
of this kata that we practice is attributed to Okinawan Master Seisho
Arakaki (also Unsu and Sochin). The original Okinawan name for
Nijushiho is Niseishi.  It is a popular kata for tournament competition and
it is a practiced often by the black belts in our dojo.  Its 24 steps include
a wide array of stances, unique bunkai, and challenging transitions
between techniques.
