This is one of my favorite performances of the kata Tensho - youtube/watch?v=3N5vZ920rRk (The practitioner is Kimo Wall, whom you can learn more about here - goo.gl/u7mtKF) Wall Sensei has a very refined ibuki breath. Ibuki breathing is the lower diaphramatic kind of breathing that makes the pressure noise ending in a certain kind of click. During Tensho the ibuki breath is intended to be more subtle than in Sanchin, which Wall Sensei demonstrates. Also the performance here lacks embellished movements or pretense (also important to the mindset of the kata).
