KATA and Qi
We had a friend ask if I could help them address a particular question.
They are testing for a belt in Karate and was told that her Qi was low
in the Kata.. could I help..?
I have No kata experiences, however I know movements, martial arts and a
bit about the concept of Qi. So I said, ‘of course’ :)
We quickly identified a few area's
Self Questions
Confidence
Footwork and Stance Questions
Focus - Where are the 3 tips
Exponetially compounded cause they are a perfectionist.
I told the practitioner they could flip it, not worry about the kata,
but doing it with complete confidence and passion. The result would be :
"Qi was awesome, Form totally wrong."
