What do you think, to my mind karate is practice to improve... training is to maintain a level...

Training is, to me, the imparting of knowledge and skills through direct instruction.

Practice is the performance of a given skill to hone it, and drive it into motor memory.

So... to me the pursuit of Karate involves both.

There are many that practice and train but do not get better. The emphasis on whatever word you choose to use isn't so much "repetition" as it is "learning."
