What makes karate special?

  • Karate is both a combat sport and a martial art that places great emphasis on developing both the body and the mind.
  • In addition to technical skills, discipline, self-control, concentration and respect play an important role.
  • Karate is not only about fighting, but also about self-defence and continuous self-improvement.
  • What makes it special is that athletes can test their skills in both kata (forms) and kumite (sparring).
  • Regular training improves physical fitness, speed, coordination and endurance.

What equipment is needed for practising karate?

  • Karate uniform (karategi): a comfortable and durable uniform that allows freedom of movement.
  • Belt (obi): indicates the karate practitioner's grade and level of development.
  • Mouthguard: mainly used during kumite training and competitions to protect the teeth.
  • Hand protectors: help prevent injuries during sparring.
  • Shin and foot protectors: protect the legs during kicks.
  • Head, body and chest protectors: their use is mandatory during kumite training and at certain competitions.
  • Karate shoes: generally not necessary, as karate is usually practised barefoot. However, people with more sensitive feet can choose from several different models.
