10 Keys to Unlocking Practical Kata Bunkai

This book is an overview on the 10 keys needed to learn and develop practical kata applications regardless of what style or system your practice. Originally, kata held the fighting concepts and principles for a complete self-defence fighting system. However, in today's age, much of the practical aspect of karate has been lost in time. By reading this book you will learn the context in which these traditional kata were designed to be used and how the motions within those kata can be applied in self-defence situations. This book is not a comprehensive study on kata; rather it is a fantastic starting point and reference guide for your own kata bunkai training. With quotes from past and present masters as well as numerous photographs, which demonstrate practical applications to form movements, there is something of value for both those new to kata bunkai and the more experienced practitioner. The perfect handbook that fits easily into your kit bag!
