Not sure there are other karateka here, but I'm just really uncontainably excited that the kata (a series of moves kind of like a dance but with punching) I am slated to learn soon is the one Rika Usami performed when she won world championships - Chatanyara Kushanku. I have a soft spot in my heart for that kata because I've seen the recording so so many times to cheer myself up. Edit: Here is the recording: https://youtu.be/iiiznDpoapQ

Still awesome to see martial artists! The kata is indeed super long... but it is thankfully somewhat repetitive. What's done on one side is done on the other, so that makes learning way easier. Rika also performs it with such confidence and her footwork is damn near perfect. Her control shows her athleticism, for sure
