Techniques in kihon and kata are characterized by deep, long stances that provide stability, enable powerful movements, and strengthen the legs.
Shotokan is regarded as a dynamic martial art as it develops anaerobic, powerful techniques as well as developing speed.
Initially strength and power are demonstrated instead of slower, more flowing motions.
Those who progress to high (dan grade) levels develop a much more fluid style that incorporates grappling, throwing and some standing joint locking jiu-jitsu-like techniques, which can be found even in basic kata.

Although it takes many years of training to acquire proficiency in Karate, the techniques learned can still be utilized effectively for self-defence.
People well trained in Karate have an even greater advantage and can successfully defend themselves against an adversary who attempts to holds grab or threaten them.
Depending on the situation, Karate techniques may be used to escape from, and counter attack an aggressor, or counter attack and then escape.
In either case, the Karate-ka must effectively utilize those parts of the body that can still be moved and take maximum advantage of the strength of the aggressor.

Since practice is to a great degree repetition, there may be a tendency to mindlessly repeat movements over and over and over.
While this certainly helps, much better results are obtained if thought is constantly applied during practice.
In the beginning, work slowly and concentrate on form.
The quality of time spent is more important than the amount of time spent.
If you practice 200 hundred kicks a break neck speed, you will only become very good at throwing a bad kick.
While watching higher belts or black belts perform technique(s) (punches, kicks, combinations, or kata); visualize yourself as that person doing the movements.
