Episode 1: Let's get into some of the Philosophy of Sport. This helps set the stage for how there are aspects of our sport that are amazing and how there are aspects that might be killing it. The first episode sets up the background for the topic, and I don’t talk about the actual sport in much detail. The focus for you is to try and listen to the episode and apply it to your personal experience within the point sparring aspect of sport karate. Especially the difference between the traditional karate aspects as well as the sport of karate aspects
