What does it mean to be a karateka? Having trained in karate for some time now i realised a few things. Nothing is permanent, competition is rife and nothing comes easy.
I think in order for karatekas to know who they are and to know why they train, they need to look deep within, take a deep breath, exhale and ask themselves honestly and humbly, just what it means to be a karateka.
I can assure you, its not how powerful your kicks or punhces are or how many bones you’ve broken or how well you perform kata. It’s oh so much more than that.
