Kata Mune Dori and Ryo Mune Dori Grip Break Combinations

Kata Mune Dori

The Takagi Yoshin Ryu style of movements and kata fits seamlessly into modern self-defense scenarios as well as professional protector applications. In this course you will explore two classical kata from this lineage; Kata Mune Dori and Ryo Mune Dori, “single lapel grab catch” and double lapel grab catch” respectively. In addition to the kata specifics we will also cover some parallel methods of dealing with similar but different attack grab styles that are congruent with the principles of these two kata.
