Why has it taken me so long to learn about this books existence! It really is quite brilliant compared to most new versions of this type of book available today.
Jam packed with very clear black & white pictures covering the history of karate, fundamentals, Kata & kumite. Also included are grading information & fitness & medical advice too.
The kata that are covered are: Kihon Kata, Heian's 1 to 5, Tekki Shodan & Bassai Dai. More than enough to enhance your chance at Shodan.
If you're familiar with the recommended KUGB Video "Shotokan Karate Kata & Kumite" then you'll know how well this book has been put together.
Dedicated to Enoeda Sensei, it features the British Legendary greats: Andy Sherry, Bob Poynton, Bob Rhodes, Terry O'Neill, Bill Higgins, Frank Brennan & Karen Findley.
