Today I want to write something about the knowledge transfer through the teacher.\n\nA teacher lives &#8222;his karate&#8220;.

This happens in the form of defined movement patterns (forms\/kata).\nWhen one has been shown the fundamental movements in addition to movement principles combat principles are introduced. Again: from easy to complex.\n\nThis is ...<\/div><a href=\"https:\/\/www.judo-blog.de\/wordpress\/english\/shu-ha-ri-or-passing-of-the-torch\/\">Read more...<\/a><\/li><li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.judo-blog.de\/wordpress\/english\/the-hike-with-the-teacher\/\">The Hike with the Teacher<\/a><div class=\"lcp_excerpt\">In my opinion a good teacher has to train every day for himself and does not need to please a student.\nA good teacher walks his way and the student may accompany him some time and learn from him.
