Step the right foot across the body, over the left side and bend your knees into a cross legged stance. Repeat this once more after a step back into a left stance.Īdvance quickly into a right boat stance, hammer fisting the right hand into the left and performing a reinforced backfist. Step backwards into a low backstance and raise the left hand into an open high block and the right hand into an open low block. Repeat this combination to the left side with opposite hands. Quickly advance with a left low block and retreat with a right low block. Now, step up to the right forward corner with a right reinforced middle block. Step the right foot back into left front stance and rotate the arm backward like a windmill, bringing the left elbow up into a strike. (The Kiai is a concentration of all of your power into one blow.) This is the first time in the Kata where you will perform a Kiai. Smoothly while stepping the right foot out into a front stance, roll the right fist inward then back outward so that the left hand braces the top of it as it punches. Pull in the front foot to a right crane stance (famous Miyagi movement) and backlist your right fist into the left palm. Repeat once more with the right side and pause after the final underhand spear. Repeat this sequence again but with the left side. Rotate the wrist outward into a grasping block and pull inward to the center as you under hand spear with the rear hand. Pull hands again to the center body crossing the front over the rear and execute an open handed middle block. Grip the hands into fists and pull apart downwards, performing two low blocks above the knees. Press the hands downward towards the knees along the lines of the legs, then scoop both hands upwards slowly and simultaneously to the center of the chest. Step out into a wide horse stance on a right 45 degree angle with the hands at the hips in fists. Start Seienchin with a clear mind and your body relaxed. Seinchin actually is a very short and easy Kata, despite being a high ranking Black belt kata! This kata contains only 44 moves total, which are a mirror repetition of each other for 2 sides, helping balance the practice of Karate among left and right hands / feet. The kata practices both attacking and defending so it's an obvious choice for Miyagi to teach Daniel with the All Valley Tournament approaching. It's a well rounded Kata that practices a wide variety of Karate moves while shifting the body moving on many angles. Seinchin Kata is all about dynamics, which encompasses both slow and fast techniques, soft and hard movements, as well as wide and short stances.

MIYAGI KARATE HOW TO
Miyagi was teaching Daniel how to calm his mind and even taught him breathing techniques to do so.

Miyagi noticed something brewing inside Daniel LaRusso that had to be amended before he could weaponize his anger and fear and apply Karate to it. Doing a bunch of chores for the Plumber who once caught him learning Karate from a book didn't seem like it was working. Originally Daniel San was frustrated at Miyagi for not teaching him real Karate.
