Karate

I did a lot of practice for karate and improved a lot.  In recent weeks, we started to learn the movements for the belt upgrade exams. Although the choreography is not very long and is basically symmetrical, as a beginner, I still felt quite hard to follow others to finish the whole move. I did a lot of practice on the moves and others who had done this examination before helped me a lot with that. After deliberate practice, I am better at doing this. Moreover, not only simply to remember the choreography, but I also made my moves more accurate and powerful. As all the moves have different points of effort and have different leg and hand positions, it is important to be accurate as well. Also, in order to look powerful, we need to shout out something like a slogan. I sometimes get lost about when to shout it and are not that loud, but now I am more proficient in doing this.
