In this episode of Great Karate Myths, we tackle the controversial concept of Kime (decisive focus). Is it the secret to a one-hit kill, or an overemphasized aesthetic that actually slows you down? 🥋🚫We explore:

• The definitions by Masatoshi Nakayama
• Why professional boxers don't use the "snap"
• The theory that Kime comes from Chinese Opera choreography
• How Kime distorts antique weapons forms

Join us as we determine if you should be pumping the brakes or hitting through the target! 🥊
