The proud warrior possesses the spirit of his people and the deadly art of karate from his Chinese master—a man now indentured to a crooked businessman with a passel of killers on his payroll.

The goal is to demonstrate to officers the understanding of the principles and appropriate use of Soft Empty Hand Control techniques. Law Enforcement officers are authorized to use a range of force options to preserve the peace, prevent crimes, maintain order and apprehend suspects.

Therefore it is essential for the officer to know defensive tactics, to protect him/her, and to control adverse situations. In modern society police have different responsibilities, such as crime investigation, providing security, crime control etc. Therefore, the officer must be aware of special tactics by which he/she can defend him/herself against stabbing, grabbing, pushing, kicking, using sharp and dangerous weapons and firearms. Within a fraction of a second a police officer must be able to react properly, otherwise it may prove to be a fatal situation. Every officer must be aware of defensive tactics and should be able to apply them effectively whenever required. Topics and techniques presented in this book will be of both great interest and great value to trainers and students of law enforcement.

This book covers Hard Empty Hand Control issues for law enforcement officer. The goal is to provide police officers with an understanding of the principles of Hard Empty Hand Control techniques. Hard Empty Hand Control techniques are defined as striking techniques. These techniques are used to control active aggression, with empty hands and feet, when the intermediate use of weapons is justified, but are not tactically available. The term hard is descriptive of the nature of the technique. Hard empty hand strikes are always defensive not offensive. These techniques are taught to protect lives from immediate danger. All hard empty hand control techniques are basic in nature; however, they address non-lethal use of force situations, and are generally reliable and effective when properly utilized. Police officers should learn and demonstrate knowledge of the striking areas as well as methods of striking. When these techniques become necessary, loud, clear, repetitive verbal commands are an important aspect of the control process. The subject needs to know what the officer desires him/her to do. In addition verbal and physical de-escalation is always preferred and should be attempted, if applicable. In training, safety is paramount. Perfect practice makes perfect. Proper technique is more important than the speed of technique application. Proficiency will increase the speed proportionally. Topics and techniques presented in this book will be of both great interest and great value to trainers and students of law enforcement.

The Lifework of a Grandmaster of Karate Budo is the path of the Japanese traditional martial arts. Mabuni Kenei has followed this path for almost eight decades until now. He belongs to the last masters taught directly by the founders of modern karatedo. The son and heir of Mabuni Kenwa - the founder of Shito ryu - has acquired a deep understanding of the essence of Karate as a budo art during his course of life. He communicates this extremely complex knowledge to the reader in a vivid and fascinating way. For this purpose he uses his own memories and experiences, technical descriptions, historical and philosophical considerations, legends and anecdotes of the lives of famous samurai and budoka (masters of sword fighting, aikido, Okinawa-te and karate). For the beginner the book provides an idea of the inexhaustible possibilities of budo as a school of life, and the experienced practitioner will find numerous stimuli for his further development and also for his own teaching activities.
