"Karate requires a harmony between breath and action. Therefore, we must learn to adjust our breathing until we reach the point where each breath coincides with each of the movements during practice"

Osensei Shoshin Nagamine Founder of the Matsubayashi-ryu style of Okinawan Shorin-ryu Karate-do

"Once a kata has been learned, it must be practiced repeatedly until it can be applied in an emergency, for knowledge of just the sequence of a form in Karate is useless."

- Gichin Funakoshi
