The Karate 3 K's
The 3 K's of Karate (Kihon, Kumite and Kata)
Kihon translates as basics or fundamentals. Many karate classes across the world, refer to the practice of the basic karate techniques, as Kihon.
Kumite translates as sparring. Kumite is usually practiced after the kihon section. This is the part of karate in which you partner up with other karateka in the dojo and test the techniques learned from the kihon (basics) and kata (Forms)
Kata translates as form. Kata are the detailed choreographed patterns of karate moves, There are many karate kata, starting from the very basic kata, up to very complicated black belt kata.
