The Karate technique is divided into three main parts: Kihon (basic technique), Kata (jurus) and Kumite (fighting). Advanced students are also taught to use weapons such as sticks (bo) and ruyung (nunchaku).

Kihon
Kihon (基本: き ほ ん, Kihon?) Literally means the foundation or foundation. Karate practitioners must master Kihon well before learning the Word and Kumite.
Kihon training starts with studying punches and kicks (white belts) and dings (brown belts). At the stage and / or the Black Belt, students are considered to have mastered the whole Kihon well.

Said
The word (型: か た) literally means form or pattern. The word in karate is not just ordinary physical or aerobic exercise. But it also contains a lesson about fighting principles. Each word has a different movement and breathing rhythm.

In the word there is something called Bunkai. Bunkai is an application that can be used from the basic movements of the Word.

Each stream has different movements and different names for each word. For example: The word Tekki in the Shotokan school is known as the Naihanchi in the Shito Ryu school. As a result, the Bunkai (word application) of each stream is also different.

Kumite
Kumite (組 手: く み て) literally means "hand meeting". Kumite is done by advanced students (blue belts or more). But now, there is a dojo that teaches kumite to beginner level students (yellow belt). Before committing free kumite (jiyu Kumite) practitioners learn the arranged kumite (kumite go hon) or (yakusoku kumite). For kumite sports, it is better known as Shiai Kumite or Kumite Match.

For Shotokan in Japan, kumite is only done by students who have reached the level and (black belt). Practitioners are required to be able to keep their blows so as not to injure friends.

For "direct contact" streams such as Kyokushin, Karate practitioners have been accustomed to doing kumite since the blue strip belt. Practitioner Kyokushin was allowed to launch kicks and punches as hard as he could in the direction of the opponent to compete.

For combination streams such as Wado-ryu, the technique consists of a combination of Karate and Jujutsu, then Kumite is divided into two types, namely Kumite for preparation of Shiai, who are trained in only the techniques allowed in the match, and Goshinjutsu Kumite or Kumite for martial arts, all techniques are used, including Jujutsu moves such as slamming, locking, and attacking vital points.
