TRAINING LIFE


A well trained karateka has the ability to coordinate mind and body which results to unleashing of tremendous physical strength. If you thought it was a possession of great strength that makes a karateka, you were wrong. Development of this ability makes it possible for the smallest person to deliver a devastating blow to anyone that attacks them.
The Moi university karate club never stops practicing the basic techniques as they are the foundation for all that has to come. Training is from Monday to Friday every single week and this shows how serious and committed they are in their art. To perfect their moves and techniques, they have come up with small competitions among themselves to reduce the tension that may occur during the main tournament.
‘’If there is no stress there can be no improvement,’’ said Margret, one of the club members. It’s a common misconception that stress is only bad. Well Margret seems to disagree a lot with this. Healthy stress is essential to the development of Moi university’s karate club. A solid strategy should be there to guarantee the clubs improvement and growth.
Anyone can be a karateka.

      At first a size plus bodied person will be very slow but with Consistent practice of particular techniques and styles will undoubtedly reprogram your body in a way that you will improve your speed ,flexibility, power and techniques.. And after some time your body will not be the same at all since the art is an exercise for the body... You'll find yourself having lost some weight..
