TEKKI SAN-DAN

The last Tekki kata,  has 36 movements. It is a very quick kata, having a rapid timing with many consecutive techniques performed without pause. T3 offers some new techniques such as zenwan-uchiotoshi, zenwan-hineri, and zenwan-gedan-furisute. Many of the techniques in T3 are executed with the "added hand" (soete) for additional support. T3 teaches the student that the added hand may also be used for grabbing or trapping an opponent's techniques. Much of the bunkai of this kata revolve around this idea of "trapping,"
On performing this kata the student must learn to show awareness (zanchin) and focus (kime) with much power execution from the belly (hara)

VIDEO REVIEW Tekki San-Dan



TEKKI NI-DAN

Consist of 24 moves involves whole body movement (Tai sabaki).

Performed in Horse stance all through on a straight line just like Tekki shodan with the exception of a few crossing steps and one heisoku-dachi. The objective in this kata is to develop grabbing, throwing, and locking applications while maintaining a strong kiba-dachi.

The Kata introduces new advanced technique  like   ryo-zenwan-suhei-kamae  (Horizontal forearm position),  zenwan-shomen-gedan-kensei ,  and  oshi-uke. The use of tsukami-uke in this kata teaches how to draw an opponent in for counter-attack.
