  • Different tournaments have different rules and regulations about the kicks that are allowed in a bout. So, firstly you should go trough these rules to make a strategy of kicks you can use.
  • Mawasi geri is allowed in almost every tournament and its a very basic yet powerful kick in karate. You can easily get 2-3 points with it.
  • You can also use another basic kick, mai-geri, but it is not counted as a scoring technique in some tournaments. So check in the rulebook before using it.
  • mawasi/ushiro geri are also allowed in some tournaments. It is a really powerful kick and can K.O. your opponent if executed correctly.
  • These are some basic kicks found in all the styles of Karate. However there are some special kicks taught in specific styles which you an use too.

What martial arts used in the movie 'Blade'?

Pretty much all the throws, arm locks and head locks (which turn out to be arm and head breaks) are found in Jujutsu. The strikes such as kicks, punches and elbow strikes are from various karate styles (which may also encorporate some of the throws like the style of karate I do called shotokan, which use some throws). The various blocks are found in both karate and jujutsu, but mainly karate. Wesley Snipes is a 5th dan in Shotokan karate along with other Martial Arts, which is why he looks so confident performing moves that take years of practise to master.


How do you know if the boy in your karate class likes you?

How to register my karate school for fights and tournaments?

Sounds like you are an independent school without a national organization. That makes it difficult to get connected. Find some of the tournaments in the area and talk with the promoters. They will be more than happy to give you information on upcoming events. Once you get connected, they will keep you on the mailing lists, which will probably be shared amount regional tournaments. They are always looking for people to give them money in the form of entry fees. Make sure you understand the rules and regulations of the specific tournaments, as they vary from place to place.
