Format:Hardcover
The boss!..Kancho Kanazawa's karate is important to him, it is his life. He has studied long and hard, and thought about his art and has come to understand what its all about' and why things are what they are. Many things, that the average student takes for granted while practising their techniques there is reasons for it all. Sadly those reasons are being forgotten, even ignored. Kancho, with his studies in many martial styles and deep studies in Tai-chi has put an almost spiritual feel to his Karate with the incredible detail he puts into his explanations of style and technique. This book is there to skim over to top up your skills, or delve deep into the true art, skills and spirit of Karate. Anything Kanazawa explains, if you have any love of Karate must be studied. This book is an excellent way of doing just that.
