Does anyone know where I could find the moves for this kata? I am working on the kata currently, but it would be nice to have it written down somewhere.

Hello, I found this link that I believe is the kata that you are asking about. The name is spelled differently, here's a link to explain difference in the name http://www.24fightingchickens.com/kata/09_canon.html

Here's one to explain the kata, http://www.24fightingchickens.com/kata/kankusho.html

Check it out and see if it's the one your looking for. I hope so.

Greg

Awesome, gheinisch. Looks like there are some small differences than the one I am learning, but this is close enough. If anybody has some tips on learning this kata, feel free to share. Thank you.

Kanku Sho is a great kata!
When I was first learning it, I found it helpful to split it up into sections of 3 or 4 moves and really practise that section. Then I'd move onto the next one and then finally try and fit it all together.
Good luck with your training, Sparky.
