Hi bcshannon,

There are 5 Junro Katas that the late, great Asai sensei devised. Sensei Asai wanted to ensure that the students developed striking techniques, stances and spinning techniques that were not practiced as much as other techniques. Sensei Asai created the 5 junro katas.

The below videos are from youtube with Sensei Scott Langley and another sensei who I am unfamiliar with. I hope they help and good luck with your exam.
