Joko katas



Joko literally translates as `always practice’ and issei, nisei, sansei, yonsei and gosei means `first to fifth generation’. In actuality these are not koten-gata (ancient/classical forms) but rather, like the more fundamental Junro, were engineered by Tetsuhiko Asai Sensei. They are a result of Asai Sensei’s research at the Japan Karate Association and target of pressuring karateka to make more fluid/smooth transitions "by force".
