Sanmi Ittai
Sanmi Ittai ( Japanese 三位一体 , dt. "Trinity") describes a special movement principle in Japanese martial arts.
Sanmi Ittai in the Wadō-Ryū Karate-Dō
In Wadō-Ryū , Sanmi Ittai means the combination of the three movements Ten-I ( Japanese 転 位 , English "change of position"), Ten-Tai ( Japanese 転 体 , English "change of body movement") and Ten- Gi ( jap. 転 技 , dt. "Change of technique"), which is practiced in the established forms of Kihon Kumite .
With Kihon Kumite Iponme (No. 1), for example, a frontal fist attack is first carried out with a sideways evasive movement of the entire body (Ten-I), a simultaneous defensive arm movement (Ten-Gi) and a simultaneous rotation of the center of the body (Ten-Tai) parried. The second attack to the Chudan is also made by a sideways evasive movement of the entire body (Ten-I), a simultaneous defensive arm movement with the right arm and a fist technique with the left arm (Ten-Gi) as well as a simultaneous rotation of the center of the body (Ten-Tai) countered. Both movements involve the principle of Sanmi-Ittai .
