Kata: Jitte
Kata: Jitte
This kata, sometimes spelled Jutte, is themed '10 Hands' to mean mastery over 10 men. Funakoshi Sensei called it Jitte, and also taught its Shailin temple sibling katas Jiin & Jion. Its origins are from Tomari-Te.
Note: Because of its overwhelming use in Wado techniques, if only one hand is mentioned, the other hand is performing a back hikite. Also, unless otherwise mentioned, all jun-tsukis are at the chudan (solar plexus) level.
