BODY ALIGNMENT IN TRADITIONAL KARATE DO
by Nelson Carrión
In this article I would like to emphasise the important role of our posture during the training.
The body in the majority of techniques should be aligned 90 from the floor. The posture is basic to produce impact (todome wasa), this principle has to be a base for all postures, there are some exceptions where the body is not placed in this alignment.
In this position the Tandem (low stomach) and kami Tandem (center of the front between eyes) are connected. This is a very important connection who alouds the body and mind to be in a really Sanshin attitude.
For this reason the practitioner should understand and practice day by day the alignment of the body. Step by step following these directions the performance
will increase a lot.
The Traditional Karate Do Institute will create a tool by the net to communicate where we could give some instructions how to improve in our self training.
