High school girls doing junokata.

I generally like the older B&W video of the old masters doing junokata better than the newer vids of the younger folks doing the modern, standardized competition version of this kata... but this is pretty cool.  I enjoyed the energy and rhythm.  Of course, there are a handful of glitches or things I would have done differently, or things I didn't recognize as exactly kosher, but still, this was a great performance.  I also generally hate musical kata, but this music was not awful with this performance - at least it was not Mortal Kombat!
