Competitions?

I don't compete much anymore, either. I think that the prime time to get into competition is at the younger ages, when perhaps things like job and family don't consume as much time, and you can spend more time training, both in and out of the dojo. That also leads to it being easier when you get older, and still want to compete now and then.

MY Sensei yesterday asked if anyone was interested in entering some competitions for both Kata and Kumite.

I really like the idea of kumite but really dont know whether im ready.

Im only a green belt and although i enjoy sparring during lessons at 39 i just feel that competition is more of a younger mans game.

Should i have a go? Im thinking the experience could be good for my Karate.

Competition is the only way to gauge your progress among a greater number of peers.

It is the best learning experience as you'll be able to watch others above, below, and at your skill level.

IMO, you'll learn more about yourself at each competition.
