What is shadow boxing and what excercises do you practice?

Anyone know a place I could be trained with a sword

Wow with that kind of attitude in are place you would be kicked out, I first started matrial arts just for fun/defense

hmm very interesting, in tournaments what do you compete in Kumite, Kata etc

Gj was that your first tournament? Hard work pays off I see.

Hmm just out of curiousity do most of you spar? If so what kind of tactics do you try in sparring or do you usually adept to what is going on? Do you have any preplaned tactics? If so plz tell me.

=D I know sepai

Hmm usually for the shito-ryu test to yellow belt all you have to do is do the basic moving blocks, show you can block punches in kumite and maybe the first kata..but you should be able to handle it.

What a good and effective way to speed up my kicks, I feel they are too slow. help me plzzzzzzz.

Hmm alright thx bud for the info more ppl post plz

What is a effective way to speed up your kicks? Something a person could practice everday?

hmmm tips for what...tips on the blocks and such..well the best thing would probably just to be ask your teach or the blackbelts that help teach the class

Hmm Yes competing is very fun I usually compete or work my way up to AAA Nationals.. I was accepted to Junior Olympics but..I didn't have the time to go so heh...I blew it off

What kind of training should people do to prepare for tournaments..sorry for asking this again but last time I only got 2 answers...and I already practiced those over and over.

Hmm Miks where do you compete and what belt are you? You seem very good Oh yes..forgot 1 more question how do you train for such tournaments in your dojo?

What rank or belt are you? -3rd kyu-Brown Belt (Shito-Ryu)

Well some of the fundamentals are form, Balance and Center of Gravity, Power and Speed, Hip Coordination, Focus, Rhythm, timing and distance and good spirit. In shito-ryu you learn to do stances, blocks, kicks, thrusts, weapons -For example a person could attack you with a kick *you first could scoop block kick them *Second strike to ankle *Grab leg and strike with handknife *Finish by sweeping *And then strike to throat --you will be learning how to defend and disarm people and hurt them enough where..you can run away Shito-ryu is the oldest official blend in a recognized style of karate Yes I believe it is very interesting and chanllenging as long as you work hard at it

I study it..What do you want to know?

What is the best way to train? If a person works out at karate everyday 1 hour a day working out nonstop trying there best builds up muscle can that person became very good?

wow that is pretty good Is he a teacher?

Can someone tell me some good sparring techniques that I could practice?..just try to explain I might understand if you have a video send link

Hmm what belt are you Isshinryu Man? And can you tell me so nice combos for kumite that I could later use?

Really..today that is not common most people do not have the time to spend 5-6 hours on Karate..That will be for me..staying at the dojo until 10:00 and then having no time to do homework or anything

Hmm..I do not know that much about Gung Fu or Wushu but can someone tell me some advanced like Staff (Bo?) techniques that I could practice on my own?

What are some advanced bo techniques that you sometimes use, not to show off but like to actually damage or attack or defend...
