Everyday was very much the same. Welcome to the news and calendar of the York Shotokan Karate Club. That they practice the art as a whole through kata, kumite and kihon. Search video containing samples of the training we do under Sensei Keith. JKA Shotokan karate is the result of many decades of refinement of individual techniques and a systematic approach to training. Upon these three rest all technique, all speed, all strength and all progress in karate. And they must be studied as one: without the kihon basic techniques, there can be neither kata nor kumite. Shotokan training is normally separated into three categories: kihon, kata and kumite. Top instructors in different karate styles such as shotokan, goju ryu, shito ryu, etcetera, in their own of karate do – kihon, kata and a lot of makiwara training. €�The foundation of karate is the kihon (basic techniques), the kata (forms), and the kumite (sparring). You will see examples of kumite (sparing), kata (form) and kihon (basics). My training was very hard; everything evolved around the number 500: 500 kicks, 500 punches, 500 stance changes, 500 hits to the makiwara, and 500 minutes of kata. Shotokan karate is based on a deep stance and the ability to generate power from this posture. In addition to this blog I have set up a YouTube channel with some instructional videos of Shotokan karate, including kihon, kata, kumite, ideas and concepts and other topics.
