5.0 out of 5 stars
An excellent account of Koei-Kan, written by a true master.,
By A Customer
This review is from: Koei-Kan Karate-Do: Practice and Precept (Paperback)
All of Sensei Frost's wisdom and knowledge of the art of Koei-Kan Karate-Do has been displayed and documented in this, an excellent reference for both begining and advanced Karate-ka. As a Sho-Dan (1st Degree Black Belt) in the Koei-Kan system, I found this book invaluable not only in my own training, but also in instructing new students. This book offers an extensive account of terminology common in Koei-Kan training, history, the "family tree" of Koei-Kan, as well as discussions on Budo, Dojo, Anatomy, Kata, the essence of Kiai, techniques, and Bogu (a full contact exercise unique to Koei-Kan). Whether you are an advanced student in Koei-Kan, a new student, or just an interested party, KOEI-KAN KARATE-DO: PRACTICE AND PRECEPT is an excellent choice to begin your journey into the heart of Karate-Do and the spirit of Budo.

very well written,
By A Customer
This review is from: Koei-Kan Karate-Do: Practice and Precept (Paperback)
sensei frosts book was very well written, however as a 20 year student of the koei-kan system and a nidan. I feel some of the training concepts were taken from other sources and not just sources that are or were taught to the general koei-kan students
