What separates us is not nearly as important as what brings us together; Style divides but kata unites! It is the common thread which weaves together the fabric of this tradition. Therefore, let us better understand kata and the mechanism which makes it work. In doing so the barriers that divide us, disappear. When it comes to understanding the mysteries of kata, we're all in this study together.

KU’s unique system of application practices bridge the gap between kata and kumite and can enhance the depth and value of any curriculum without adversely effecting the cosmetic appearance of one’s style. — Patrick McCarthy
