5.0 out of 5 stars Great guide to learning the Katas of Wado, April 7, 2010
This review is from: Karate Katas of Wadoryu (Hardcover)
This book along with "Introduction to Karate" by Ohgami make a great guide for learing wado, or any style of karate. The first part of the book describes the dynamics of kata and explains many of the basics common to all kata. The photos are excellent and diagrams explain many of the subtleties.

The katas in the book are:

Pinan 1-5
Kushanku
Naifanchi
Seishan

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Karate Katas of Wadoryu (Hardcover)
I received my book in excellent condition. It only took in my case 24 days, very well packaged, fast service. The is the second copy in our home 3 out of 4 study Wado Karate for over 8 years. It is a great book along with picking up a copy INTRODUCTION TO KARATE by the same author both recommended by our Sensei. Its a great teaching tool and study tool for reaching higher ranks along with getting your Black Belt and beyond. We wore out our other copy. I'll recommend to fellow students to pick up a copy for themselves. Thank you for your service, I am a first time user, and will check in for more instruction or pure reading fun. I suggest you don't miss out because these copies are hard to find and with studying Wado Style karate these books are a great asset.
