About WaaaaTaah!
‘WaaaaTaah! – It’s Karate Sound’ is a project that integrates multidisciplinary skills through rhythm and music-based practice modules, structured for individuals, small and large groups. After the training phase, the technicians will have the necessary skills to provide participants with class modules (Warm-up, basic rhythmic structures, Kihon, kata) which, supported by music and rhythmic sessions, can offer a wide range of activities.
This project aims to:
- To disseminate the ‘Karate Sound’ methodology as an innovative practice in Karate teaching, with a particular focus on the inclusion and involvement of girls aged 5 to 11;
- Promote a holistic approach to physical education that integrates physical, cognitive and socio-emotional development through the creative use of music and movement;
- Create a national network of instructors and educational institutions that actively implement and promote ‘Karate Sound’, sharing best practices and further developing the method;
- Evaluate the impact of ‘Karate Sound’ on participants’ motivation, participation and learning outcomes, thus contributing to research in the field of innovative physical education;
- Raising awareness of the importance of inclusion and diversity in sporting and educational practices, through seminars, workshops and information materials.
