Kata's are typical in most japanese arts, even flower arrangements. They are movements which contain the basic principles of the art, once you have made these movements a part of your 'being' you will start using these movements unconsciously during the practise. The thing is that a sensei cannot start explaining those movements in words because it is too much too coördinate with your mind and then you'll miss the entire purpose of the movement. That's why kata are important :)

In Karate the Kata is useful for ONE thing, it creates your "fighting mode" if you do Kata and imagin your oponets during kata and pretend your fighting people thats all its usful for. Karate is a good style, but non is best... In Karate they dont just do kata like in USA, they actually fight and many REAL non Americanized Karate use no gloves or pads and is full power to eachother. They is very crazy, but thats how you learn REAL fight, kata is useful for make fight mode, but thats all.

WTF!!! Someone obvioulsy doesnt know much about karate if they believe kata is meant for fighting, kata holds the secret for proper effective self-defence, Itosu and the original karate masters NEVER put much faith in Kumite! And kumite today is for sport - bunkai (kata applications) is proper karate! Read about what karate is before spouting that nonsense! >:o/
