My situation may be different Ikone.
I have PsA and the one thing that my physiotherapist said to me was: "Keep on moving!" It is much better for the joints if you use them a lot and regularly.
Although I also did lots of running previously, I changed to spinning as this has the advantage of being less heavy for my joints than running. While still the condition stays ok.
I also do dancing btw.
With a sport like karate I can imagine that the pressure on joins is quite high and explosive, but anyway does not matter if you do not have PsA.
I never found that PsA has a lowering effect on my condition. In the office where I work I am the second best in shape. While most of my colleagues are around my age.
As the psoriasis on my skin has completely vanished, I do not have any problem with sweating. :-).
