Kenwa Mabuni Quotes

• El kárate que se ha introducido en Tokio es en realidad sólo una parte del todo. El hecho de que los que han aprendido karate allí piensen que sólo consiste en patadas y puñetazos, y que los derribos y bloqueos sólo se encuentran en el judo o el jujutsu, sólo puede atribuirse a una falta de comprensión... Aquellos que piensan en el futuro del karate deberían tener una mente abierta y esforzarse por estudiar el arte completo.

• The meaning of the directions in kata is not well understood, and frequently mistakes are made in the interpretation of kata movements. In extreme cases, it is sometimes heard that "this kata moves in 8 directions so it is designed for fighting 8 opponents" or some such nonsense.
