Hello sensei, osu! I wanted to ask you a question, isn't the kata 'Heian' shodan, because it's my first time hearing it as 'Pinan' Shodan Please let me know your thoughts
These kata were originally called Pinan, when Itosu Sensei created them in Okinawa. When karate was introduced to Japan in the 1920s, they were renamed Heian in the Shotokan style. In many styles, they are still called Pinan.
