Many people don’t know that Karate is broken. They just keep doing the same mistakes that have been handed down and think they are doing it right. Unfortunately, the old ‘Masters’ were just as prone to human error as any of us. In many instances they handed down the same, same old same old, and never bothered to question those who taught them.
Thus, Karate has been designed for use against armor.
It has been designed for use with certain weapons in mind.
It has been designed with the clothes of the day in mind.
It has been designed for periods of history and cultures which no longer exist.
It has been designed by people with vested interests.
It has been passed on by people whose main motivation was money.
One of my favorites, it has been designed for the behavior modification of school children.
It has been slanted by tournament.
It has been altered by protective gear.
It has been influenced by other arts and methods.
It has been hidden by ‘masters’ from Okinawa who lived 100 years ago.
And, one of the more blasphemous influences, it has been infected by that bastard we call politics.
So how do we get rid of these less than workable influences? what is the real Karate? Or, as the title of this book suggests, how do we fix it?
How do we make people able to perform the feats of legends which many of us grew up on?
How do we find the real forms and the true techniques in the mish mash of forms that we have inherited?
That is what this book is about.
One does not need fifty forms. One only needs the correct sampling of all the forms handed down. In this two volume set are the eight most forms.
One does need to analyze the body, the situation, the conditions, and, most important, the historic influences, if one is going to figure out a true and perfect Karate.
Do you want to know forms that have been tweaked and adjusted so the applications are obvious?
Do you want those applications to make sense and be usable in the real world?
Do you want to stop doing two separate arts, freestyle and form, and start doing a single art that works in both realms?
And here’s something that might interest you…do you want to know karate better than people who have spent decades trying to make sense out of the whole mess?
A couple of things you should know before purchasing this book.
Yes, what you learn will be tremendously applicable to other arts.
The techniques will sometimes be more simple than you would expect. This is because there are no advanced techniques, there are only better basics.
