SHOTOKAN ADVANCED TRAINING METHODS V3

Harry Cook, historian, karate master, and author of SHOTOKAN KARATE: A PRECISE HISTORY, is dedicated to resurrecting a karate practice that is an effective fighting method, rather than simply a form of exercise and performance. To this end he has introduced this popular series of instructionals for advanced students, creating a knowledgeable resource for martial artists interested in learning techniques for fighting a determined aggressor. This volume offers training drills with the single and double focus pads, which aim to improve the speed, timing, and impact of punching, and covers various other striking techniques as well.
