Practicing karate I discovered how karates appeared what they teach you what you can learn from them, what you can be from them

Shotokan

Karate appeared in Okinawa, Japan in 1922 as a martial art. It has its origins in the Chinese martial arts styles (kung-fu or gong-fu, respectively kem-po in Japanese) and shaolin quang-fa practiced by the monks of the shaolin temple. The fighting techniques used are blows with the hands and feet, blockages, harvesting, gripping, projections. Karate training is generally divided into kihon, kata and kumite. The founder of the Shotokan style is Gichin Funakoshi (1868-1957).

Kihon It is the basis in karate representing the performance of performing in unison a certain technique or a combination of karate techniques.

Kata (imaginary fight with several opponents) is composed of a series of movements representing offensive or defensive positions. These positions are based on real combat applications. In order to obtain a certain degree in karate, a karateka must prove that he masters a certain kata necessary to reach that level.

Kumite  Kumite is the branch of karate in which a person trains against an opponent using the techniques acquired in kihon and kata.

Gohon Kumite - In traditional Shotokan karate the type of kumite for beginners is gohon kumite. The attacker (tori) uses 5 arm kicks. The one who defends (uke) always steps back, blocking the attacks and after the last block counterattack.

Sanbon kumite - executes three attacks because the defender blocks three times and then counterattacks. The attacker announces in each round where he is attacking.

Ippon kumite - one step attack / block
