It is important to train your bunkai in sparring scenarios, learning how to apply the self-defense techniques from the kata in live training. Such drills help you learn how to adapt to your opponent and to use combative principles and techniques taught in the kata. Here, Sensei Hogsette discusses and demonstrates using the low-block windup in a clinch scenario against an attempted choke. He also discusses incorporating principles and techniques from other kata to deal with a combative situation.
