in my opinion i think chi power is withing all of us . come on u have seen it with the chinnese monks . have u seen there physical strength wow it is amazing and it all comes from . there chi power . which consist of alot of meditation and training . the center of our power is at the bottom of our bellly bottoms . thas why i consider sanchin kata a good kata for all of us to practice if u want to release that power . because we breath from there and not from the lungs . chi power is strong which people cannot get there hands on but i think the majority will like to . but nobody has the patients it takes time !!!!

thanks for the links . i appracite it ., its nice to see other styles of karate. besides the modern based ones . u kno shito ryu goju . wado and shotokan

I LIKE JUNIOR LEFEVRE HE BEAT WAYNE OTTO . AND I GOT THE CLICK TO PROVE IT ... BUT UM HE IS THE BEST COMPETITOR IVE SEEN SO FAR OVERALL. HE HAS BEEN WORLD EUROPEAN CHAMPION in 1999 I RESPECT THAT GUY

A QUESTION TO ALL THE KARATEKAS WHO answered this forum questions . I was meaning to know .. how does karate do all of this .. i mean the only thing we do in karate is train exercise . thats it . basically . how does that work with ur life and aspects of confidence and your goals toward your future . people say so many things that they probably just making up .. let me know so i can change that thought . i need you to respond as soon as possible OSU

hahaha thats true .. right now im learning sanchin in my school.. from a goyu ryu intructor .. i will ask him about this weird health problem they talking about .. osu and i'll get back to you as soon as possible

can i ask a question .... how is sanchin kata if taught incorectly .. bad for ur health i heard something like that before .. i dont get this ??

what about the kumite competition .. what techniques did u try to use . .or anything else . was it tough competition ???

u sure about that .. ?? there are some things u can do ina situation like that .. but submissionfighter is right . u better keep ur eyes on u ropponent all the time .. no matter what .. after ur done stomping his face in .. conitnue to look ... i dont care who he is .. OSU

for sparring in tournaments you cant hit sooooo hard trying to knock the air out of your opponent .. its suppose to be light contact to the head only with control but when i spar in tournaments i hit them hard in the abdominal areas .. but theres no contact to the face but remember keep your guard up in the tournaments it is harder than at a dojo becuase they set there mind on the gold medal .. but since its your first time i think it will be a bit easy if your sparring with a higher ranking than you then your in good shape try not to get nervous . the people in your competition will be nervous as well .. but try and do your techniques and everything will be fine .. OSU
