Title: A great book is an understatement
Review: Saying The Way of Kata by Lawrence Kane and Kris Wilder is a great book is an understatement. What an addition to traditional Okinawa Karate. This is not another book of complicated and questionable techniques or weird physiological theories.When I first scanned the chapters and their contents I quickly realized this is a work that is needed and long time coming. Regardless of ones style or system, when it comes to discerning each move of ones kata, this is the book.I have been studying my martial art for 36 years, and this is not only the best martial art book on kata I own, but a work in a league of its own.If you obtain the book for just the fifteen general principles to identify effective kata techniques and the twelve discrete rules for deciphering martial applications, it will be well worth it.Michael E.
