I love IKF Karate because: Your Answer: I have so many reasons to love karate, it‘s made me so happy through the years. I’ve been in karate for two and a half years and I’m as happy as the day I started. I love it for all of the opportunities it has provided me with and the things that it has taught me.
The number one reason I love karate is the people. I have considered them as family since I started. Everyone in karate has a love and respect for everything that they do, they are always kind and fun. Since karate I have gained a second family. I have met many people that are very close to my heart.
Another reason I love karate is what I’ve learned. I’ve learned responsibility, leadership, to be more comfortable with myself and my body. I have become more outgoing since starting karate. I’ve also learned that working hard does pay off in the long run. I have learned how much I love teaching and working with children, and how much I love working with other people.
