Prearranged combination of motions that embody the fundamental techniques and stances of a karate style. Kata are handed down from master to student over generations. Today's Goju-Ryu kata have their basis in Chinese, traditional Okinawan, and Japanese forms. Further back in history, one can trace the motions of some modern kata back to India.

adverb [greek: "down"] - a term used in some literature to refer to one of the two directions from three dimensional space into four dimensional space. In tetraspace, represented by the vector <0,0,0,-1>. This term refers to the direction analogous to down; the opposite direction is ana. On this webpage I use the term delta for the concept of four-dimensional down. See the chart under direction.
