The first things you will learn will be basic stances (forward, horse, back), blocks (low, middle, high) and punches (low, middle, high). The first kick you will learn will be the front kick, followed closely by the side kick and round house kick.

Those listed before are generally what is learned within the first 8 weeks or so and is what is tested on during the first test.
There are many websites and such where you can find these, but if you're planning on learning it, I would suggest taking a legitimate class so you don't get ripped off, or worse, injured....

A basic karate move is called the shicodatchi or horse stance. Its pretty simple, you pretend your riding a horse. make your legs 3-5 feet apart(depends on your hight)bend your knees and look towards your front foot now try adding a punch to that.once your done that start with your left foot in front and take a step forward and do it
