Think you want to learn Karate? Just dying to take it up and join a club/dojo, don't know which style, club or instructor to choose etc - GET THIS BOOK NOW!! and save yourself a lot of aggravation and be armed with lots of (the right) questions when you approach your prospective club.

Only 48 pages, yes, but don't knock it - this little book packs a BIG punch in providing all the basic information you need to decide whether or not you're going to 1) Take up karate 2) which style is best for me 3) how to choose a club 4) what's involved and expected of a student over a couple of years 5) how often to train and what benefits karate can offer me.

Quite a lot of Kihon (basic moves) are show with lots of pictures. An explanation of kumite (sparring) and kata (forms/choreographed techniques) mentioned to.

This book is almost as cheap as or even cheaper than most karate clubs lessons are and would be VERY WISE investment for anyone tempted to take up the art. As many karate-ka know already, if you do take it up and you are serious about karate, you soon discover it's addictive nature which leads it to becoming more than a mere hobby, more a way of life.

Once armed with the information in this book, you can truly make the correct choice of club and instructor & style etc. You can waste an awful lot of money in choosing the wrong club, worse than that, you could end up badly injured and not be insured!
