Formal Seisan Bunkai - Uechi Ryu Okikukai Dan Test

Here is my portion of the Okinawan Karate-do Association's formal Seisan Bunkai. It's a requirement for first, second, and third degree black belt. I make a couple mistakes, and I save tge biggest for the end. If it weren't for my great partner being "on it," I probably would have had to repeat the exercise. I went too deep into kata muscle memory and forgot to end the demonstration portion at the correct segment right before the Seisan jump back.
