Seisan Bunkai: Basic and Advanced

Seisan is the second (or third, depends who you ask) last kata in the Goju Ryu syllabus. A kata with this many possible bunkai needed a longer video than usual. Grab some popcorn and your notes, and join us for bunkai ranging from strict textbook versions right through to pratical, oyo interpretations.

As always, comments and memes provided by the editor, Zoë. Brian the deshi has returned and continues to make Ché's bunkai look good (which is what deshis are for, right?)
