5.0 out of 5 stars Good, Basic Video on Karate, April 18, 2000

By	Carl Weis (NY) - See all my reviews

I like this video because Chris Thompson's movements are fluid and there is some internal quality. Many Karate practitioners are stiff and awkward. This video shows basic exercise training, punching, blocking, sparring, stance training, free fighting and five basic kata. Also a short history of Karate. It is a great introduction to Karate.

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT for learning the fundamentals!, August 4, 2000

By	Dean Diefendorf (Brooklyn, NY USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

When I was a beginner in karate I often felt lost in class. This video is an excellent backup to training in the dojo. The tape is clear and easy to understand. Furthermore, demonstrations are slow, easy to follow and explained.
