ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Kamiza

Okay, so imagine you're in a martial arts class and you see a special place at the front of the room where your teacher stands. That special place is called the kamiza.

The kamiza is kind of like a special seat for your teacher. It's a way to show respect to your teacher and the martial arts you're learning.

The idea behind the kamiza is that your teacher is like your guide in your martial arts journey, so they get to sit in a special place to show that they're important in helping you learn.

So, just like you have a special place to sit at the dinner table or in class, your teacher has their own special place in the martial arts world. That's the kamiza!
