Description
Suparinpei kata was a speciality of Kanryo Higaonna, the teacher of Chojun Miyagi, and is the longest and most complex of the Goju Ryu kata. Although the origins of the Goju Ryu kata have yet to be precisely identified, undoubtedly they are to be found in the martial practices common in the Fuchow area in the second half of the nineteenth century.
