Heian means "Peaceful Mind". This word is the first of five said the base rate, which was created by Yasutsune Itosu (one teacher Gichin Funakoshi). Although it is not known how the Heian Kata was created, but many argue that the word Heian is part of a higher order, namely Kata Kanku-Dai. Itosu creating Karate Kata Heian to introduce into the school curriculum to eliminate the impression dangerous techniques contained in advanced word. Heian Kata is Kata Shorin, who demonstrate the power and flexibility of movement.
Important thing :
Punch fore attitude and forward motion. Has 21 movements with the application time of 40 seconds.
Kata means literally "shape" or "model." Kata is a formalized sequence of movements which represent various offensive and defensive postures. These postures are based on idealized combat applications. The applications when applied in a demonstration with real opponents is referred to as a Bunkai. The Bunkai shows how every stance and movement is used. Bunkai is a useful tool to understand a kata.
Kata used for testing in test hikes belt, to familiarize themselves in motion, to make it easier to memorize the movement, and others.
do not worry and feel lazy to know or learn Kata. because you are not required to memorize or do everything. you just need to learn some of the main Kata are commonly in use in the level kyu or beginners. and the rest for Dan or existing levels of black belt.
In learning kata you must lear one by one and do not need to be memorized with difficulty just need to follow the movement many times in order to get used to and memorize.
You can forget about Kata before and remember next kata if you just want to know, but if you do that you will not be familiar with the basic movements and will reduce the rate of movement provisions in the next Kato.
So, should you do Kata you've learned before one in every meeting after stretching and kihon (after do video at Kihon Shotokan Style : learning karate at home 1.1). If you forget, you can see the video again. but do not be too memorize it again did just continue until you get used to and by itself will remember indirectly. use your memory to memorize the next Kato.
