I am probably going to bore you, but coming out of an era
where no kata applications were studied, I became obsessive about what you
could do with Seisan kata.
An early compilation of some of what I saw Seisan potential
could be is shown in the following two videos.
Seisan Applications 1991
I went much further as time progressed. And meeting Sherman
Harrill and John Kerker added other dimensions to my study.

Then as
time passed I put my efforts on other Isshinryu kata, but continued to think
about ways to use Seisan.
What I
have come to accept is there is no simple answer as to what can be done, even
with a single movement. The purpose of the study is not to pick and chose a
best answer when you need it. Rather to
reach toward the understanding whatever movement you select can be inserted
into any attack and end that attack.
Of course
that is the goal as I see it.
