He really doesnt mind at all, and its only for my benefit. Only as an aid to learning.
Its a Nokia N70, the camara is good but not perfect so I still need to go and ask stuff.
One day I may get asked to do the same for someone, I'll show them the same kindness that has been offered to me...
I've decided against doing that Godan Kata. I have this problem with needing to do things in order.
I've found that whilst learning a kata I need to know each step perfectly before moving to the next step. Unlike some I know who can do 'that bit in the middle' or 'the end bit'.
I'm just a weird pleb.

When folk talk about the "understanding of a kata". Is that the bunkai? I know the bunkai is the application of the moves but some people refare to the understanding as though its something other than the knowing
Knowing some workable bunkai for a movement is certainly part of the picture. But rather than having any number of workable bunkai I think its more important to understand the principles inherent in the movement.
