Kata Is Like A Textbook

by Takwann
Judging by some articles practitioners of the martial arts are beginning to seriously look at their arts and asking the question - is what I am being taught really self-defence or just an oriental art form? What's more, they're asking why you do this and that technique. Rather than just following blindly from one technique to another because someone tells them its so. This is not to say there is anything wrong with their particular martial art just the way they have been viewed or interpreted. Of course, it all depends on what you are training for in the first place. Are you doing it just to keep fit or as a sport? But for those of us who may need it for something more practical because of your job or environment then studying a martial art or some other combative system that offers you the best possible chance of surviving a bad situation is your best bet. Even so, unfortunately, many instructors of various systems are only capable for what ever reason, in teaching young and active trainees and do not teach traditional kata at all. Believing, wrongly in my opinion that kata has no place in a modern day combative system.
