How do you start a kata?

Typically in a Kata, which is Japanese, you will start standing straight up and then you will open your toes making a v shape. In the v shape your heels will be touching each other. After that you will move your hands from your side to the top of your thighs.

Finally you will bow, when you come up from your bow(don't go too far down) you come back up to your original position After the bow your right foot will step out to make you stand shoulder width apart and you will then back a circular motion with both arms going all the way above your head to your fist closed and out in front of your hip. You will then say the name of your Kata. There are many names some of the names that I can think of on the top of my head is (please excuse my spelling) Takiyoku, Heion Sho Don, Heion Ni Dan, Heion San Dan, Heion Go Dan, Heion Yon Dan, Teki, Basi Di, Basi Sho, Un Su, and Ro Hai.

Then you will finally start your Kate strikes).

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
