Karate origins and benefits

Karate evolved in East Asia over a period of centuries, becoming systematized in Okinawa in the 17th century, probably by people forbidden to carry weapons. It was imported into Japan in the 1920s. Several schools and systems developed, each favouring somewhat different techniques and training methods.

Karate is pretty useful and functional when it comes to self-defense. The low stances, the rigid footwork, and quick and flexible movements all play a big hand in making it an excellent form of self-defense when you find yourself in a situation where you have to fight in real life.

Karate practice strengthens the mind, develops composure, a clearer thought process, deeper insight into one’s mental capabilities, and more self-confidence. It strengthens the entire body, improves coordination, quickens reflexes, builds stamina and overall health.
