This program focuses on helping participants build a strong foundation in Karate, while expanding their technical repertoire and improving their mastery of movement through the in-depth study and solo practice of 'kata' (fighting forms). Practice involves learning and understanding kata routines and performing them to perfection, emphasizing precise body mechanics, mental focus, and cultivation of fighting spirit. Training is supplemented with the use of striking pads and controlled application of techniques (bunkai). This program is non-contact-intensive and is run with safety and respect at its core, upholding the spirit of Japanese martial arts culture (budo). |
The Program has been designed based on the official syllabus for Ashihara Karate, as accredited by the respective global governing bodies- New International Karate Organization (NIKO).
