that's a good point, about kata and styles , what is it that make a style? what are the key elements or above the styles what is the base behind a philosophy of self defense like naha-te or shuri-te ( help me out here I don’t know a proper term for naha-te or shuri-te so I used philosophy). it just katas?( as representation of physical movements and breathing) or some thing beyond ?

 

My Sensei use to say that karate is made by 3 Ks Kihon, Kata and Kumite.

 

Kumite and somehow also kihon are in evolution (e.g. in the beginning only front kicks were used in karate) the only thing we actually know about the roots of karate are found in the katas, the katas are our link to Naha-te, Shuri-te or whatever else. There maybe something beyond that but how can know about it?
