Kata is challenging for many reasons, but perhaps the biggest is that there is little or no possibilities of for freedom of execution. When looking for a kumite performer, so he or she has far more freedom in its execution than what a Kata athlete has. -when we look at the form of competition. But as a Karateka you have to master all aspects, which brings balance and development.We are going to take a look at Kata…but in different kind of settings… with Shihan Midori, Shihan Fitkin, Sensei Marius Ilas, Sensei Christina Peterson, Sensei Anca Wallmen, Sensei Norichika Tsukamoto and more..

Misaki Sato, Japan.
Name one female fighter that have manage to win three World Cup`s. That alone will give us a idea out how skilled this fighter is. Sato from Japan have been the best female fighter in the world in the -65 category. She have also proven that she can reach to the top in open weight categories as well being the vice World Champion in 2007, 3rd place in 2015. Moving very smart, and strong techniques makes Misaki Sato a great fighter, and beside fighting around the word – taking many top prizes in All Japan`s Tournaments complements it all.

Midori Kenji Shihan. Our inspiration and role model. It is very important to have someone who can lead the way in life’s challenges. And perhaps especially for the younger people will need this. Learning to fight for what you want to achieve is no longer natural for everyone. But it is very important to keep this and through Kyokushin Karate we do.
