Beach Kata

Part of the 30 Creative Ways to Practice Kata This is a follow-up to The Water Kata. Years ago, I would go to the beach and do kata. There was something different about practicing there. The ocean, the breeze, the sand beneath my feet, and the sound of the waves gently rolling onto the shore created a sense of calm I didn’t expect....

Vacation Kata

I call these Vacation Katas, but you don’t have to be on vacation to try one. Whenever we go on vacation or visit someplace new—a monument, a national landmark, a festival, or even a small town—we usually take pictures. Maybe we look at those pictures once or twice, and then they disappear into our phones, never to be seen again....

Visualize Your Kata

YOU DON’T ALWAYS HAVE TO MOVE TO PRACTICE KATA. Here’s another of the 30 ways to practice your kata. Visualize your kata. Sometimes the most powerful training happens when you close your eyes. Visualization is the practice of mentally rehearsing a movement, technique, or entire sequence without physically performing it. For a karateka, this can become another way to practice kata—one that allows you to train your mind, sharpen your technique, and deepen your understanding of the movements....

Rain Kata

Another creative way to practice kata. Rain Kata is exactly what it sounds like—performing kata outside in the rain. Of course, there is one very important warning: never practice kata outside during a thunderstorm. If you see lightning or hear thunder, get inside. No kata is worth taking that risk. I’ve practiced kata in very high humidity. It isn’t rain, but the moisture in the air sticks to your clothes and skin and creates its own challenge....

Water Kata

One of my morning rituals is doing kata beside my pool. After spending so many mornings practicing there, I started thinking about the purifying philosophy of water. I begin my morning with a little meditation in the pool. I stand waist-deep in the water, quiet and still, welcoming the beginning of a new day. Then I get out and begin my kata....

Birthday Katas

More creative reasons to do kata: Birthday Katas are simple; perform one kata for every year you’ve been alive. As a rough estimate, each kata takes about one minute, so that can help you judge how much time you’ll need to complete your Birthday Kata challenge. I started doing this when I was 57 years old. Yes, it really does take about an hour to complete 60 katas!...

30 Creative Ways to Practice Kata

30 Creative Ways to Practice Kata I’m a big fan of kata. Over the years, I’ve come up with more than 30 different ways to practice it. Maybe it’s more accurate to say I’ve discovered 30 different reasons to do kata. I’ve performed kata at national landmarks as a way to “mark my territory”—lol. I’ve done kata to celebrate milestones, to challenge myself, and to explore new environments....

Hot Kata

Let me warn everyone: this practice is not safe. If you are not used to hot temperatures, this could potentially make you extremely sick. This is simply my own experience that I want to share. I live in Florida, where summers can be brutally hot. Walking on asphalt, concrete, or sand can burn your feet in seconds. Beach sand can reach temperatures of 120 degrees....

New Moon Kata

The New Moon is symbolic of communication, information, learning something new, investing in new ways, and experiencing your neighborhood through fresh eyes. In May 2026, the New Moon falls on Saturday, May 16th. Unlike the Full Moon, the New Moon offers no extra light—just you and the darkness. At first, that might not sound appealing. No spotlight. No visibility. No dramatic energy....

Kata with a Friend

When I say “kata with a friend,” I’m not talking about during class. I’m talking about getting together with a friend or family member outside of class to do kata. Kata can be meditative and enjoyable when done with someone who matches your speed and enthusiasm. You’re not trying to explain or teach the kata. You’re simply sharing the experience of the movements, the focus, and the environment together....
