Brown Belt Shotokan Karate Basics
A full understanding of Kime is needed when testing from 3rd Kyu brown belt to 2nd Kyu brown and white belt. Kime is not just muscle tension, you must release the tension in a fraction of a second at the completion of the techniques, or this combination will become very robotic.
Mae geri (front kick), Oi zuki (stepping punch), Gyaku zuki (reverse punch)
1. Keep kamae as you kick mae geri, do not let the arms move.
2. Then step forward oi zuki jodan after the front kick
