History of karate
Karate is an old, Asian martial art without weapons, which has been practiced in Germany since the late 1950s. Karate has its origins in India, China and Japan and can be traced back to around 500 AD. Karate has been known as an independent Japanese martial art for over 100 years.
The basic principle of karate is to get the technique to the finish line with the greatest possible speed and without impact. To do this, it is necessary to learn the ability to stop the attacking techniques before hitting them through proper karate training. In the final phase of the technique, the entire body muscles are tensed and the entire strength is concentrated on the point of attack.
Karate combines the training of body and mind. The focus here is on health, respect for the athletic opponent and personal development.
