Could you clarify which specific kata you're referring to in the context of Cobra Kai? The show incorporates various martial arts styles and techniques, so there may be several different katas featured. However, if you're asking about the kata used by the Cobra Kai dojo, it's likely that they incorporate traditional karate katas, such as the Pinan or Heian series, with their own unique variations and twists. It's also possible that they may use katas from other martial arts disciplines that they incorporate into their training, such as judo or taekwondo. Ultimately, the specific kata used in Cobra Kai would depend on the episode or scene being referenced.
