"Katas define a 'school', a system, or a ryu which is clearly identified by its katas as a school of particular emphases and principles. ... (Karate) Katas are to do with violence ... and they are to do with efficient violence. They teach how to respond to violence with violence. That is why there is no first strike in karate or its kata - but there are plenty of strikes that respond to first strikes. ..."Sensei Dave Hague is one of the very few western masters who have captured, I think, what went on in the minds of the old masters. He has solved the riddle of how to read the book, and he has rendered his findings in a modern form which I think the old masters would appreciate and enjoy." Stephen Chan OBE PhD 9 Dan Shorin Ryu

A novel that reflects anecdotes and teachings that occurred throughout the existence of this legendary master of karate-do Shorin Ryu style. His life takes place towards the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. As it's entering into the text the reader will find an enjoyable (and sometimes emotional) brushstroke of the contributions he made to this exciting Art. In addition to the Okinawan Shorin Ryu style, others important styles of Japanese karate (Shotokan, Wado-Ryu, Shito-Ryu) performs similar forms of katas that he developed. This is because Itosu Ankō has an important presence within their lineages. He continued the legacy that was given to him by another legendary master like Matsumura Sokon, and he managed to incorporate karate thanks to his effort, in the teachings of Okinawa schools, which also gave him a strong impulse for dissemination.

Complete Shotokan Karate is actually two books in one: a thorough history of Japanese karate in Asia and the United States, and an instructional manual for students of the Shotokan method. Part One outlines the history of karate from its probable origins in India (or perhaps Greece), and its transmission from China through Okinawa to Japan. Relevant aspects of Japanese history and culture, such as the samurai ethos and Zen, are emphasized. Part Two, profusely illustrated with over 600 clear black-and-white photographs and 20 line drawings, outlines instruction for kumite (sparring drills). Included are two-person drills such as the double-line drill and the circle drill which give practice in facing multiple opponents. Descriptions of many of these drills are not found in other English-language books. In addition, nine karate kata (forms) are presented, two of which, sochin and nijushiho, are rarely seen in print in English. The two parts of this exhaustive book--the first historical and philosophical, the second practical--combine to form one of the most comprehensive presentations of Shotokan karate available in English. Complete Shotokan Karate is an essential resource for all those interested in Japanese karate.
