Changes in Naifanchi

2016-05-21 22:24:24

  

 

Naifanchi is one of the basic types of karate. It is said from ancient times that "the type begins in Naifanchi, ends in Naifanchi" or "Karate starts in Naifanchi, and ends in Naifanchi".

 

Besides, there is a Seisan and a Sanchin to the one which is made a basic type of karate. In general, the Naifanchi is based on the Shuri hand and the night hand, and the Naha hand is based on the Sun Chin. Seyssins is also in the Shuri hand and Naha--variations are different--there are.

 

However, it is a point that such a stereotype classification is chiefly the one since the Meiji 30 's, especially after continued. There is a San chin in the Shuri hand, and the Naha hand seems to have Naifanchi in the Kojyogaoka flow, too. Therefore, it is necessary to exclude it at one end when thinking about the transmission system of Karate (karate) especially before the Meiji era "ahead drainage" that it is sure not to Naifanchi in the Naha hand as there should be no San chin in the Shuri hand.

 

Well, the right picture is all had show teacher Subglottic Karate Naifanchi. It is possible to take a look at a certain big tendency though it is different each other, and it is a little. From Dr. Yabe Kento to Prof. Hiroshi Toyama the knee is squeezed to the inside only the last Chibana however teacher, and the tiptoe are standing in the inside (inside character) as for the stand to have opened wide the knees roughly, and the tiptoe is standing in the outside (outside character) or parallel.

 

Moreover, the point where the hand of the former is turned to the front of the palm, and "it is so-called handmade" (note 1), and "Back sword receiving" which only Chibana teacher is turned on is different.

 

Why is there such a difference? It is Yabe, and the headquarters is studied directly by Mr. Matsumura Kun teacher besides had teacher. Moreover, Dr. Funakoshi is still studying under Mt. Subglottic's Asato show teacher. Mr. Toyama is not a disciple of Prof. Matsumura, but he is a Yabe teacher at the Okinawa Prefectural Normal School and is strongly influenced by Yabe sensei.

 

In a word, they are leaving the feature of the Naifanchi in the Matsumura age heavily. On the other hand, Chibana teacher is a Naifanchi of a pure had generation. Naifanchi of the yarn East style of Mabuni Kenwa teacher who is somewhat younger than Chibana teacher is also close to Chibana teacher's Naifanchi.

 

This "had Naifanchi" was adopted at each school in Okinawa prefecture before the war, so it spread explosively, and now it is the standard of the Shuri hand of Okinawa.

 

However, why was Mr. Matsumura's Naifanchi altered had teacher? It is the one that the had teacher might have adopted the San Chin standing of Naha hand in Naifanchi because it had studied for a long time in the Samurai Nagahama in Naha other than Matsumura teacher. Dr. Yabe testified that Mr. had was "Naha six Shuri Quadrant", so the influence of Naha hand could have been a motive for Naifanchi alteration.

 

However, this alteration seems to have been unpopular to Mr. Matsumura. According to the Central morning group ' My Tang Surgery ' (Showa 7), Dr. Matsumura called the Naifanchi stand of had Sensei "turtle Small (Camiguagata)",

 

"In the small turtle of the had, it is very dangerous when actually attends, and it is knocked down soon"

 

It is likely to have criticized it (note 2).

 

Had teacher may have had a case of had teacher, in any case, Naifanchi is a generation of Matsumura-had, a major change--in some cases 180 degrees different--in fact, those who study karate history should be mindful of this.

 

The reason is that the art of karate can mean that the technique of the Shuri hand is changed greatly in this case--because the way of standing is the base of the karate, and the way of standing changes greatly.

 

There is also a school that interprets this as a back hand and the technique to receive it.

Can any one provide me with a history of Nihanchi kata? I am aware that Nihanchi Nidan and Sandan May have been created by Anko Itosu, but I have no history for shodan.

Thank you

The best answer is found in "Essence of Okinawa Karate-do" by Shoshin Nagamine which mention it was a kata practiced in Tomari (academic region at the time) back in the 1700's. From what I have learned, it means to snare or entrap the legs in Mandarin which is important as Mandarin was the language of the academic elite at the time. As for the book mentioned, anyone who has gone to the Shuri Castle can tell you there are no small passages in the palace and the guards of Shuri carried weapons to protect the king

Shodan is OOOLLLLDDD! Nidan was most likely created by Matsumura. Sandan was most likely created by Itosu. Ryan, the founder of this page, has shown evidence suggesting such.

Chibana Chosin stated that Naihanchi (Shodan) came from Sakugawa. KishimotoDi has this kata, and did not come from Matsumura, but another student of Sakugawa, named Tachimura, which does suggest that Naihanchi does at least come from Sakugawa. Chances are slim that Matsumura developed it. Now, whether Sakugawa developed it, or learned it from someone who taught it before him, we have no real way of knowing at this point in time. Perhaps, someday, someone will uncover some documentation that changes that.
