I love all aspects of karate, but I picked kata, because there's a lot of cool stuff hidden within kata that helps with basics and sparring.

 

It was a tough choice to make, though!!

I'll say katas its relaxing slow.

A karate punch it is like a dasvasted stick blow. Instead, a blow of Kung Was is comparable to a lash with a chain that has attacked, allaltra extremity one ball of ferro

I picked Kata mainly because of the significance it has on my training. The sad thing is I am not particularly reknown for my Kata skills. :-?

lol, I wish someone had told my sensei that last night....

 

In the leson last night we did Gojushiho Sho and Meikyo all evening (there was just brown & black belts there) and by the end of the lesson I felt in need of a lung transplant I was gasping for breath that much.

 

Gojushiho Sho and Meikyo done after one another at full speed and power really works up a sweat!!

kata all the way!

 

in my opinion kihon and kumite are just extracted from the kata so kata itself wins hands down in my book.
