The benefits of KarateThere are many benefits from studying Karate, including :
Learn self-defence and how to avoid dangerous situationsImprove mental discipline and patienceImprove strength, fitness and flexibilityMeeting and socialising with a friendly group of students.
It is likely to take many years for a normal person to achieve a high standard although students may progressfaster depending on their dedication to training. While it is not realistic to set a particular time-frame to achieveblack belt level, it is unusual to reach this level in less than 5 years. Again, the speed of progression varies witheach individual.
The syllabusMuch emphasis is placed on learning proper basic techniques including stances, punches and blocks. Thesemovements form the foundation of Karate practice. Sparring is introduced gradually starting with restrictedsparring such as one-step sparring. As skills improve other sparring practice is introduced including three-actionsparring, hands-only sparring and eventually free sparring. Safety in sparring is paramount. All sparring isstrictly non-contact and protective equipment is worn also in case of accidental contact.
Kata (or forms) are taught at all levels. There are 19 kata to study to black belt level that are assessed at variousgradings.
All students start at beginner and white belt level and the first grading level is 8th kyu. Subsequent gradings arefor 7th kyu, 6th kyu etc. Green belt is 6th Kyu to 4th kyu and Brown belt is 3rd kyu to 1 st kyu level. Black beltis 1st Dan onwards.
Training in traditional Japanese weapons commences at 3 kyu. Weapons include Bo (long staff), Jo (short staff),nunchuku, sai and tonfa. There are certain government licensing requirements that must be complied with forsome weapons in some States.
All instructors are dedicated and approachable and teaching often occurs on a one-to-one basis.
