Which martial art is your favorite?

At TopColoringPages.net, we love publishing printable coloring pages that introduce children to various sports. Martial arts are a physical activity that teaches children many useful skills, such as discipline, consistency, camaraderie, mobility, and, of course, self-defense. A good martial arts school hones not only the body but also character.

And which martial art is best? It all depends on individual tastes and preferences, but in this set of coloring pages you’ll find, for example:

1. Karate coloring page – one of the most popular martial arts in the world. It originates from Japan and has a multi-generational tradition. Practitioners train in dojos, wearing white kimonos and colorful belts to demonstrate their skill. In the karate coloring pages above, you can see the moves typical of this fighting style.
2. Taekwondo coloring page – famous for its incredible array of striking kicks. This Korean martial art is highly dynamic and is also an Olympic discipline. Taekwondo athletes are incredibly flexible and agile.
3. Judo coloring page – this martial art focuses on throws and grapples to outsmart the opponent. The main goal is to use the opponent’s weight and strength to bring them to the ground.
4. Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu coloring page – often called BJJ, is a martial art that has gained immense popularity worldwide in recent years. It focuses on ground fighting and the use of special techniques called submissions to force the opponent to tap out. What does a BJJ fighter look like? Check out the martial arts printables above.
5. Kung Fu coloring page – an incredibly beautiful Chinese martial art with many different styles. Some forms mimic the movements of animals such as tigers or cranes, and the techniques are often very fluid and graceful.
6. Muay Thai coloring page – this martial art originates from Thailand. Fighters use not only their fists and feet but also their elbows and knees, making it a very powerful stand-up martial art.
7. Aikido coloring page – this Japanese martial art is purely for defense. It uses flowing, circular movements to redirect an attacker’s energy and safely neutralize them without causing serious harm.
8. Boxing coloring page – boxers are known primarily for powerful punches, such as jabs and hooks. But did you know that footwork is also extremely important in boxing, and the power of a punch comes not only from the hand but also from the core? Boxing is definitely not a primitive sport, and mastery requires talent and years of rigorous training.
9. Capoeira coloring page – this Brazilian martial art is truly unique and hard to confuse with any other. It’s a fusion of martial arts, dance, and music. Competitors move in a fluid style called ginga, perform spectacular acrobatics, and play instruments during training. Sounds like a lot of fun, right?
10. Kickboxing coloring page – here you can combine powerful boxing punches with powerful kicks. Competitors wear gloves and often practice on punching bags to improve their strength and technique. Kickboxing training is excellent for developing physique and coordination.
11. Kendo coloring page – if kicks and punches aren’t your style, kendo might be a good alternative. Here, fights are performed with bamboo swords called “shinai,” and points are scored by striking the opponent on specific points of the body. The kendo fighter’s uniform is very interesting, and you can see it in the kendo coloring page.
12. Sumo coloring page – a Japanese national sport in which giant wrestlers attempt to push each other out of a circular ring or force any part of the opponent’s body (except the feet) to the ground. Suma matches are very short, but full of power and grace, beginning with a special ring cleansing ritual. Top sumo wrestlers are true stars in Japan, and legends of the sport include Tarō Akebono and Hakuho Sho. I am sure that among the above printables you will quickly find a sumo coloring page.
