Milos Newbie Registered: 01/13/07 Posts: 5 Loc: Serbia	My favourite kata is Passai (old Tomari no Passai version). I very like this kata because of bunkai. Bunkai of Passai kata is very effective in real confrotation. In bunkai we have all basic defensive movements for self defence. _________________________ Shorin ryu karate & Matayoshi kobudo

nahate Member Registered: 04/20/06 Posts: 53 Loc: No VA suburbs of Wash DC	It's hard to choose a favorite since I visit them all on a nearly daily basis but if pressed I'd say sepai, kururunfa, and superimpei.

Taison The Forum Dragon Professional Poster Registered: 09/06/05 Posts: 3629 Loc: BKK, Thailand	Been training Tekki Shodan (Kyokushin) like mad and Pinan Sono Yon (Oyama style). Don't know why, I'm a goju-ryu practitioner but I keep doing KK katas. Guess something hit me too hard on the head. -Taison out _________________________ I got two fists..
