How often should I practice martial arts?
Many people who start learning martial arts become life-long practitioners, so there’s no specific timeline to keep in mind. As a general rule, you should train at your own pace. It’s common to do 1-2 classes per week, so aim for 45-60 minutes at least once a week.
How many days a week should you go to karate?
As a beginner starting karate it’s best to train 2 to 3 days per week.

How does a martial artist train?
When a dedicated martial artist decides to train, he trains hard. He goes all out when he hits the pads, drives with full force as he takes his partner down.
