The Holy Bible of bare-knuckle karate has arrived.,
By "vitriol08" (Fremont, California United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Kenkakaikan Elite Warriors (Paperback)
The Holy Bible of bare-knuckle karate has arrived. I took the book on the plane last week and had such a great time reading it! First sleepy, I soon wanted to do push ups, run, kick, punch! I see three main reasons why this book is a gemstone for an martial artist: First, the concepts are explained sharply in concise sentences with the scientific, almost surgical precision that makes Ray the exceptional teacher and master he is. They don t need to be explained again nor illustrated: the essence of the movement or concept is imprinted in your mind, ready to guide you in your next training. The book of kicking exemplifies this quality very well. It seems Ray is talking! Second, the structure is a parangon of precision and originality: organized by "books": the books of hands, of grappling, of kicking, of evasion... it guides you logically through the foundations necessary to become a well-rounded fighter. Third, it rings true, relying on what looks like common sense, but is actually the quintessence of years of practice and mastery. Like his author, the book is straightforward, honest, having removed the unnecessary and synthesized the very best from Ashihara and Uechi-Ryu karate, boxing, western fencing.I have only one regret: why have I moved from Boston? OSU!
