You first build up your strength with hand, leg and body exercises, with weight-liffting, tumbling and interesting calisthenics. Once you begin karate itself you work on body tension, correct breathing, and balancing-and expecially the significance of the 'hara'-before going through the stances, movements and other techniques one by one until you are prepared for contesting. The spiritual side of karate, so important to a full understanding of the sport, is not neglected either.
After mastering kempo, you perfect your judo throws and falls. At the conclusion you realize why etiquette accompanies expertness in the martial arts-you can afford to be polite to anyone because you know you can conquer him in case it comes to physical combat. You can walk the most dangerous streets without dread because you can defend yourself against any type of attack.
