Progression is a positive trait, as long as one keeps in touch with the past and has a staple backdrop to focus or fall back on. Although the Revised Expanded Third Edition contains all the wording and photographs that are reproduced in both the first edition, as well as this Revised and Expanded Second Edition, it comparatively represents a step into what was, for these latter two books, the future. The year 2019, in which I am writing this foreword, represents respectively 30 years and 20 years into the future since the publication of these two books, so I think this faithful reproduction of the Master Version by Q&I Publications is well timed. For some readers it might bring about nostalgia, for others it might be an eye-opener into a world that is not always truthfully represented, due to commercial or other reasons. For the teachers who I interviewed and have been embodied herein, I hope this Master Version will remain a testament into how they wished to be represented for time immemorial.

A concise yet comprehensive history of traditional Okinawan and Japanese karate, with biographies of the great karate masters This concise-yet-comprehensive history of traditional Okinawan and Japanese karate includes authoritative biographies of the great karate masters of the past and the philosophical issues they faced as karate changed and evolved. Bringing a fresh understanding to the study of the martial arts, Mark I. Cramer dispels many of the often-repeated martial-arts myths as he details the lineages of the modern styles of karate and describes the social, cultural, and political events that influenced them. While most books focus on a single style of karate or the biography of just one of the great teachers, this book offers a well-researched and detailed overview. By bringing all of this knowledge together in one volume, Cramer—an award-winning inductee into the USA Karate Federation’s Hall of Fame—fills a crucial gap.

While training with Master Nakamura, he charged Master Odo to bring together all his vast knowledge of kenpo karate and kobudō from his past instructors: Sensei Koho Kuba (Tomari-te), Master Shinpo Matayoshi and Sensei Mitsuo Kakazu (kobudō), Seiki Toma (kobudō), and Master Shigeru Nakamura (Naha-te & Shuri-te). In 1972, the Okinawa Kenpo Karate Renmei appointed Master Odo as president of the All Okinawa Kenpo Karate-do League. Soon after his appointment, Master Odo completed incorporating kobudō into the Okinawa kenpo karate empty-hand system as taught by Master Nakamura. Master Odo became one of the first instructors to combine a karate system with a complete weapons system. This book is an example of the organized system that Master Odo developed. Weapons presented in this text include the bó (staff), tunfá (millstone handle), sai (dagger-shaped metal truncheon), kama (sickle or hand scythe), nunchaku (flail), and nunte-bó (staff with gaff).This book contains a detail description of the Kobudō kata as taught by Master Seikichi Odo to Professor Bill Marron in the early 1970's. Each kata is based upon the first 3 instructional DVDs developed by Professor Marron and Shihan Crayton Moss. It is advised that students first learn the kata from a qualified instructor of Kobudō and use the detailed texts and DVDs to develop their expertise. This book was designed to help the Kobudōka remember the kata when they get a mental block while practicing. Each Directional Series with specific technical steps correspond directly with the detailed steps of the DVDs listed below. Our desire is each kata remain true according to Master Odo's wish, "keep the 'old ways' straight."For more information contact American Kenpo Karate and Weapons system (AKKW.net).Instructional Weapons (Kobudō) DVDs1.

It is well written and is an excellent adjunct for their demonstrations on the DVD sets. I would highly recommend it to anyone interested in the Weapon arts of Okinawa. Congratulations on an excellent publication.Professor Ken Baker (Hanshi, Judan, Midori Yama Budokai)Having been a student of Okinawa Weapons since 1978, I was very pleased to receive an advance copy of "Kobudo, the Ancient Art of Okinawa Weapons," by William Marron (10th Black, Hanshi,-Professor) and Crayton Moss (7th 'Black, Shihan). It is a book that goes into such great detail on one of my favorite styles of practice. I have personally trained under Marron Hanshi. He was an excellent practitioner, a true gentleman and a great friend. He is greatly missed. I am so pleased that his protégé Moss, Shihan has continued to keep this legacy going forward with such a fine book. The DVD's and the book will go hand in hand to further the study of Kobudo.Note: A color edition is also available.

Time moves on, cultures change with the twists of history and secret arts are lost. To understand the essence of karate, kobudo and te is to read and digest this work. To devour the mysteries of the secret principles it records is to dwell in a former time, only then will the reader know the true meanings of what the masters passed on. This book was a classic of the 20th century and, with the passing of time, is now considered to be an historic record for the modern era; both a time capsule and an integrated tool of knowledge transmission. Also featuring contributions from the latest breed of expert researchers, this Expanded Third Edition keeps the original version alive in its entirety, while bringing the Okinawan karate world up to date, as it expands into an ever-increasing international world. Be warned though, it also answers questions that have not been asked until now and topics that could not have been discussed, while expanding on newly debatable issues. This is what the masters were really saying
