Shotokan Karate - Advanced Training Methods vol. 3

Description: Shotokan Karate - Advanced Training Methods vol. 3 A seminar with Harry Cook Volume 3 Training with Equipment part 1 Best known as karate's premier historian due to his landmark book, Shotokan Karate A Precise History, Harry Cook is also a superb instructor whose services are in great demand throughout the karate world. This four part series shows precisely why. The historical research for which he is famous, has led Harry back to the true meaning of the kata applications. His findings, which may initially seem shocking to some, are the answers to many of the most frequently asked questions by beginner and dan grade alike, and the key to truly effective karate. “I start from the position that a martial art is for fighting and/or self defence, so the techniques must have some combat function, that is they are not fundamentally for exercise or physical training, that is the purpose of hojo undo, stretching etc. Miyamoto Musashi said in his book Gorin No Sho: ‘The true Way of sword fencing is the craft of defeating an enemy in a fight, and nothing other than this.’ I think that this is true and so it is necessary to develop training methods which develop skills directly applicable to fighting a strong, determined aggressor.” — Harry Cook Running time approx. 60 minutes.
