(Baonghean.vn) - Strong, individual, and resilient are the qualities that describe the female karate fighters from Nghe An who are training and competing impressively.
 |
| Karate or Karatedo is a traditional martial art of Japan. In recent decades, this martial art has become the choice of many people, including women. What is special is that at Karate Clubs in Nghe An, the participation of female members accounts for a not small number. |
 |
| On January 1, 1990, Karate was officially included in the training and competition program of Nghe An Sports Department. Since then, this day has become the traditional day of Karate in Nghe An. |
 |
| Nghe An Karatedo Association was established under Decision No. 2442/QD-UBND dated July 3, 2012 of Nghe An Provincial People's Committee. In particular, under the leadership of Coach Le Thanh Tam, the women's team consists of 7 members who are typical representatives of the province when participating in performances and competitions for national tournaments. |
 |
| Karate is famous for its distinctive fighting techniques. In the photo: Female martial artist Dinh Thi Lan Huong, has been practicing the sport for nearly 7 years and achieved a black belt in 2011. Huong easily defeated a male opponent who weighed almost 1.5 times more than her. |
 |
| Modern Karate training is divided into three main parts: basic techniques, forms, and sparring practice. |
 |
| Footwork, attack stance, body technique, eye technique, and breathing are the elements that are always considered top priority in karate. |
 |
| Karate also has hook punches, kicks, and continuous hand strikes. To increase the ability to counterattack, karate also uses hip rotation or kimite techniques. This is considered a traditional secret of this school. |
 |
| Karate training requires a high level of physical and mental discipline. To achieve a black belt requires a long and persistent training process. |
 |
| 18-year-old Pham Huu Khanh Linh (Vinh City) has been involved in martial arts for over 4 years. More than just a hobby, this is a passion that is growing stronger and stronger. Khanh Linh excelled in achieving the first-degree black belt in early 2016. |
 |
| Practicing karate not only helps women improve their health but it is also a place to train their will and martial spirit. That is the reason why karate not only attracts men but also women are interested in this martial art. |
