If by fighting you mean sparring, then kata, although I haven't really learned how to spar. Right now, though, kata is my absolute favourite thing to work on in the dojo.

Kata is my absolute favorite thing in the world. I love to look at bunkai for what you're doing in a kata.

Well i've just learned my first kata and my sparring basically consists of me flapping my arms and legs about tryin not to get hit and waiting for sensei to shout 'yamae' :lol:

 

Kata for me. The good thing is when i forget the moves i just search about the net and find them :D

Please explain the differance between "kata" and "fighting." Afterall, kata is fighting.

 

What do you think?
