How often do you kumite in karate?
Hey, I'd like to know how often you do real kumite not kihon kumite or anything like that. Meaning they set up the mats and everything and you go all out?
First off there is no such thing as Kihon kumite. There is ippon, sanbon and jiyu kumite as well as randori kumite in authentic Karate. Jiyu kumite is freestyle where anything goes but you still must use control. If you are referring to the slap based point crap that is sport karate. If you are referring to full contact that is called Bogu kumite.
I train kumite twice a week and do both Jiyu and Bogu kumite for about two hours each day.
