13: Soft targets are all over the body but if your opponent is able to protect those targets you need to figure out how to get around that protection.

BALANCE: Balance is a great word, and has many meanings when applied to martial arts. Balance is important for all things and with martial arts, it is the foundation to proper techniques.

In Karate we focus on the stances a bit more than other styles of martial arts. The Kata we practice uses low stances that transition forward, backward and turning. Movements are part of the technique, you should never stand still.

11 - You must practice as often as you can. Black Belts are not experts who get to stop working out and stop practicing. The 49ers have a saying "You are either getting better or worse". Without practice you are getting worse, with practice you allow yourself to get better.

FLOW - This is the ultimate goal in your training. You want to be able to flow between blocks, strikes, limb destruction, chokes or throws.

Transitional Flow is mastery, this is is how we determine skill level.
