Karate Kicks Attacks and Defenses

Attacks, Kicks and Defenses are common in Karate.

But the only thing you can not use with Karate is to use hand held weapons, Hand held weapons are used in other martial arts. This is because Karate

means empty hand .In Martial arts there is a spirit shout called a kia. Used mostly in attacks.
