There are several areas we need to address it, before we
could achieved what we are aiming for.
These are: 1. The Basic knowledge and execution of movement
in karate-do.
2. The fitness condition of the
participant
3.
The understanding of the Rules and regulations of Kumite.
4.
The actual exposure of fighting.
1. The Basic Knowledge of Kumite movement
One should be able to perform the basic
kumite stance, and able to manupulate his body as he wishes to any direction.
This would prevent you from getting out of the match area often, and resulted
to Hansuku condition.
All punches and kicks must accompanied
with the five elements of scoring during the match.
One must able to execute Jodan Geri, which
will score 3 points in the match; as well as Ashi Barai (The sweep). These
techniques will make you score more.
2. The Fitness Condition of the Participant
Knowing all the
techniques but unable to deliver it effectively will be useless. To be agile,
flexible, fast reacting and strong, one must go for strength conditioning
program. Aimless gym training or fitness training have not impact on
performance. Only sports specific prescrible program would enhance the
performance tremendiously.
3. Participant should try go attend Kumite Judging Workshop,
so that he would understand from first hand knowledge, how a punch or kick
would score in a match. If not, than the technical coach should clearly
illustrate the key points of the Rules and Regulations of a Kumite Match.
4. The Autual Exposure of Fighting
Participant must
try to ennage himself to all opportunities that would provide him chance to do
kumite, whether it is a practice session or official match. Through these
matches, participant will be able to build his confidence during matches.
