Kihon Hangeki Renshu video

Here is a brief video on kihon hangeki renshu (basic counterattack practice). This is used for introductory jiyu-kumite training for kyu grades and can obviously employ any techniques. No combinations here, just single kizami-zuki (jab punches) and single technique counters.


I'd like to thank Brendon Wells (SKIF shodan) who is in this video. Brendon has represented New Zealand in kumite at the SKIF (Shotokan Karatedo International Federation) World Championships in Tokyo.
