What I like, by GooGoo

Karate is a Japanese martial art. With Karate we learn the self control and defend ourselves.
Karate is practiced in two complementary parts: kata (fight against an imaginary partner)
 
 
and kumite (fight against a true partner).
 
 
Kata is like a choregraphy with fighting technics: this allows to have balance, strength control and concentration.
Kumite is a true confrontation against a partner. The fighter who wins the more points is the winner.
 
Personaly, I've been practising Karate for 10 years. I'm black belt 1st Dan and I practice Kumite's competitions to National Level or Open (= no qualifications and international).
 
Last season, I did a lot of podium:
 
1st Department Championship
1st League Championship
1st League Cup
1st League Cup
5th France Championship
3rd France cup Handset Kata/Kumite
2nd National Open of Orleans
2nd France Cup North zone
1st National Open semi-contact interdisciplinary (all the fighting sports combined).
1st national Cup semi-contact
 
I must try to do the same results this year...or better!
 
 
My advice is: don't mess with Googoo! Mrs P.

      It's not important that Teddy Riner is a Judo Champion, what's important is the results ;D

    Yeah, karaté is one of my favourites sports. I practiced it when I was younger, but I stopped for Handball. Since when do you practice it ?
