Karate – “Breaking Limits”

Overview
The participants explore the challenge of breaking a wooden board with their fist. on three different levels: cognitive, emotional and on a body level. Is my fist strong enough? How is it to hit the board? Is it painful? The whole team is watching! What if I fail? Will they really support me?
