white belts!? How many months will it take to move up a belt? In the dojo I'm going to sign up for the black belts help the white belts out and I feel like I'm going to be really embarrased.
I think my grand children need some structure and responsibility training in their lives and I think a Karate school would be just what I am looking for. Any suggestions from someone who has been there.
i have been training in shotokan for quite a while now (currently at 2nd kyu) and was looking to look to broaden my horizons with another martial art, preferably one that i can develop my throws, locks and groundwork. Any suggestions people
Cheers
This guy already has 4 stripes on his purple belt,We tested on the same time , He doesn't know his purple belt kata or set and he cant fight /sparr worth a **** and i know the purple belt kata and i know all my sets up to brown belt ( 3 belts ahead ) and i can fight / sparr like a green belt...
Ya the question explains it. This is talking about the adult class. We do Tang Soo Do, and i really want to know which kick we have to do. I think it might be a side kick but I'm not sure.
Thanks
I want to take it. but I noticed people say kempo karate is cheap, and is poor self defense. What do you think? this is the only school near me. and I need to learn this too keep my bullies away from me.
So I've been doing knockdown karate for a year now. I believe I'm the only one in my dojo who hasn't competed yet in kumite.
To be honest, I don't have the cardio or stamina. I'm a chronic insomniac. I only sleep 3 hours a day but because I love karate, I train regularly even without sleep. I...
So, for a physics project we have to find examples of projectile motion and use images to make a collage. I'm trying to think of examples of projectile motion in karate. I know it's not traditionally thought of, but I think there are some.
Examples:
-Throwing a nunchuku
-Hitting a moving target...
i enjoy doing them and it gets me sweating and out of breath but is it a good for of exercise
i teach myself
i say kata.....................its more like doing a mix of punches and kicks over and over again

kumite? At what point/ kyu rank did you and/or your students begin practicing ippon, sanbon, kiso, and jiyu kumite? What style do you practice?
Thanks!
Kickboxing.? Which one can I effectively use on the street and if I were drafted into a war I could use against a huge enemy troop. I'm 5'9 155 pounds 24 years old. Which one suits me better? I only have a few months of boxing under my belt.
I took karate I month over the summer and really enjoyed it. I really want to take it again but my parents don't like it so they think I don't like it. Being the youngest of three I am expected to do a sport that my brother and sister do have done. I want to be my own person and do my own think...
I'm 20 and I'm gonna be learning soon, but are the katas hard to learn? What if I practiced hours a day, would it help me? Plus how is the style in terms of self defense? Good or bad?
I'm 16 , and I woke up from this horrible dream where I couldn't defend myself . I use to go to a karate school but I lived far from it and I stopped going because I was afraid I wouldn't have a ride to and from . My moms car started to act up . But now , after that dream *it felt VERY real* I...
