Karate
is a Japanese martial art whose physical aspects seek the development of defensive and counterattacking body movements. The themes of traditional karate training are fighting and self-defence, though its mental and moral aspects target the overall improvement of the individual. This is facilitated by the discipline and persistent effort required in training.
The Karate Grading System
Like all karate clubs, Okinawa Shorin Ryu Karate has a grading system that allows all students to proceed through levels, or grades, signifying their growth and development. Whilst it is not mandatory for students to go through the grading system, we have found it is a great way for both adults and children to have their progress recognized.
What Does A Grading Mean?
The coloured belt grading are like stepping stones on the path to a student’s goal of Black belt. A grading represents that a student has reached a competent level with their current techniques and are ready to move on to learn and develop more advanced techniques and skill-sets
What Is Involved?
When a student has completed their minimum time period and lessons on a particular belt, and have gained a strong grasp of the technical requirements for their current grade, their instructor will book them in to attend a Regional Grading.
GRADING SYLLABUS
The training syllabus for Shorin Ryu Karate is set and centralised by the experience of the senior instructors. The syllabus has been developed so that all students follow the same training pattern and develop and progress in rank structured manner. A student must complete a minimum time on each grad as well as reaching the required standards in kihon(basics) before being allowed to attempt their next belt. For each belt student is tested on pre-set combination, line drill and kumite drill and must also perform a kata (form) There is one kata for each kyu grade. For black belt levels a student may choose from a selection of katas. Below is the belt system for Shorin Ryu Karate (based on a student who trains 2-3 times a week, and has an average level of fitness and co-ordination).
Elements of Karate
Kihon (Basic Moves)
The basic moves of Karate are called kihon and are usually learnt through the repetition of techniques by an entire group of karateka. Kihon involves the perfection of basic kicks, punches, strikes and blocks which are applied in kumite (sparring). By practicing the basic techniques over and over, karateka seek to improve balance, power, speed, concentration, strength, rhythm, timing and breathing.
Balance
Good balance is crucial to exercising Karate techniques with precision and timing. The sequence of techniques demanded by kata requires the karateka to adjust their centre of gravity and maintain balance through complex kicks, turns and strikes. As the central part of the body, the hips are crucial to maintaining good balance and should also be rotated to add power and balance to kicks, punches and blocks.
Power and Speed
Karate techniques rely on a combination of power and speed and karateka must learn to use their body strength effectively in order to maintain control and concentrate the greatest amount of force at the point of attack or defense. The ability to use muscular strength to the greatest effect through kicking, punching, striking and blocking is known as kime and requires the karateka to relax their body until the point of impact, at which point maximum power can be exercised.
Concentration
Karate is an extremely focused art form which requires the karateka to learn to perform with complete concentration. Kicks and punches are not simply about building up strength in the arms and legs, but to have the most effect demand the entire body to be concentrated without distraction on the target.
Strength
Whilst muscle strength does not necessarily make a good karateka, strength is a necessary component of Karate. Karateka practice techniques repeatedly in order to build up strong elastic muscles and learn to use the appropriate muscles for different techniques.
Rhythm and timing
When moving through a sequence of techniques karateka must adopt a rhythm which allows them to time each move with precision. Sensing the rhythm of each movement and set of moves allows the karateka to understand the techniques and reveals the aesthetic qualities of Karate.
Breathing
As well as building up balance, power, strength and rhythm, kihon involves the perfecting of breathing techniques. Correct breathing is fundamental to bringing maximum power to the point of attack or defence and karateka must learn to adapt their breathing to different situations.
As well as the general principles of balance, speed, power, strength, rhythm and breathing, there are numerous basic techniques, stances and forms of etiquette for the karateka to learn.
