Karate: My View , Myself WK41

Considering how the world is today, it is only important to learn a defense skill, back then I'm secondary school, we had our karate and taekwondo class but I never took it serious, because I didn't find it interesting, if I could turn back the hands of the clock, I'll definitely make good use of that opportunity.

Karate is a martial combat sport, it is a self defense sport, the main aim of the game is to build self defense. Building self defense has a whole lots of benefits both health and physical benefits. It is a weaponless combat because it does not use any weapon but it is fought bare hands. It is an amazing and an emergency skill because it's not every time that we would be with weapon. But with this skill, with or without weapons we can still defend ourselves when needs arise. Karate and taekwondo are both defense skills but slight differences.

There are a lot of techniques in karate but I'll highlight three as instructed.

We have the punch, kicks and blocks.

Punch is more like boxing the opponent, it is a form of defense because in the absence of weapon or in the case of an unexpected attack, a punch can be used as a self defense strategy.

Kicks is done using the leg, it is also an essential self defense strategy because take for example the hand is captured, which is very common, the leg can be used as a self defense strategy.

Blocks is done using the hands and the leg, in case of an attack, the person uses his or her hand and leg to block the attack. Blocks is used to restrict an attack from an opponent.

Well, I'm personally not a movie freak, but back then I'm school our taekwondo and karate tutor recommended a movie to help boost our skill in karate. The title of the movie is karate kid, the movie was to help us learn new stunt and skills in order to improve ourselves in the skill.

Well, I didn't watch the movie so I really will not have much to say about it, like I stated earlier, I wasn't interested in learning karate because I felt it was not feminine but now I know better.

I'll choose @bossj23 because he looks agile and is a work out freak, so challenging him will be a big win for me, even if I don't win but at least I'll better and perfect my skills.

Thank you for reading my blog, I invite @bossj23, @imadear and @goodybest to participate in this contest
