Episode Synopsis

 I'm so excited we finally got to this conversation. And even more excited that we did it with our friend Shihan McKinnon. I waited on this, one of my favorite subjects, until I found the right spark. And that spark came from Shihan's blogpost on the subject. Here is a link to it:https://www.torakankarate.com.au/single-post/karate-essence-kata?fbclid=IwAR383Ku0p8vwNF5Mz0Oz5FOcdkItKrqThCF1BtK-9Uw0b_MjZghgSksVC8kKata is an integral part of training - as are Sparring and Self-defense. We covered sparring in 2021. Here's that link:https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/8283054And we've had many conversations on Self-Defense. (Although if you have an idea on a new take - get in touch and come talk with us) Here's one of those discussions:https://www.buzzsprout.com/477379/4315460Back to today: We mention that our YouTube page had an example of kata (in case you're interested). It is Sensei Rob Carbone.
