5.0 out of 5 stars A Sequel to Karate-do Kyohan, 25 Sep 2008
By Terry Tozer "TJSKA.com" (Reading & Bracknell, UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
Master Oshima Sensei starts off with his "Notes on Training" where the late Grand Master Funakoshi Sensei finishes with his now infamous "Karate-do Kyohan: The Master Text".

Similar in size to the Karate-do Kyohan and with only 252 pages, it's not a very large book. Although the translation is a little awkward, it's written clearly and easily enough to work though quite quickly. However, students should note that it is a book that needs to be read a few times during different stages of ones training. Then the import of what Oshima Sensei is teaching will sink in.

I'm so happy that I managed to obtain a copy and I hope that it is reprinted soon, for as far as I'm concerned (in my humble opinion) it is almost equal in value to the lessons taught in the Karate-do Kyohan.

There are no pictures, except for a few kanji at the beginning of the book and may not excite many students, except the serious or senior karate-ka. But it really is worth it's weight in gold and I'm glad I persisted in hunting down my own copy.

Please check the glowing reviews on Amazon.com as well. You won't find one negative remark.

The book goes into great and detailed depth on Kata, Kihon and kumite. You will learn and study things here that are not covered in any other book covering Shotokan karate. Take a moment to look at the pictures I have submitted above showing the contents index and front and back flaps to give you a flavour of it's content.

Oshima Sensei's karate experience (over 50 years) is evident right from the start of the book. He was one of Gichin Funakoshi's last direct students and also studied under and alongside such greats as Master Egami.
