Australian Karate Academy - Salisbury

The practical study of kata, looking at the movements and asking, “What is this actually doing?”

In this Passai application, we are not just “blocking”. We are using the movement to control the opponent’s arm, break their posture, and create an opening to take them down.

This is why kata training is so important. It is not just a pattern to memorise, but a record of practical fighting ideas that need to be studied with a partner.
