Book excerpt: Okinawan Shuri-te provides a detailed examination of the origins of the Shotokan system of Karate. Now this 2nd edition provides a great many specially commissioned pictures to aid with clarity as you work through the katas. It builds on the work of others to rediscover much of what has been deliberately excluded from Shotokan Karate. Starting at the origins of the system from the mid 1800's, this book charts the history, development and key figures responsible for the creation of this deadly system of fighting. This book does not however, stop there. It goes on to put the kata back as the central key to training, and disects the Heian/Pinan katas into their component parts with real world applications that were designed to deal with the many and varied threats of the day, in19th century Okinawa.This book opens up the Heian/Pinan kata to reveal a fully rounded combat system, bourne of the necessity to crush any opposition, disarm and re-use weapons used against them, including bladed weapons and firearms. It contains detailed breakdowns of each of the five kata, often with multiple applications per sequence. You will see how the creators used their wealth of experience of a variety of martial art traditions, to fashion their new and highly secret fighting art - Shuri-te.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Wado Ryu Karate/Jujutsu is the third book by master martial arts instructor, Mark Edward Cody. This volume explores the origins, techniques and kata of one of Japan's most traditional martial arts. This is the first book to examine all seventeen kata of the system and is one of the few existing texts written by a native English speaker. Unlike other works on the subject, kata movement is explained in precise detail. The reader is given clear, systematic instruction in the direction, execution and technique of kata movement. Cody chronicles the traditions of Wado Ryu in light of the necessity for innovation and combat effectiveness in the propagation and evolution of ancient fighting systems. Wado Ryu Karate/Jujutsu embodies the ancient martial principle to "Absorb that which is useful". Hironori Ohtsuka created the Wado system by blending the best aspects of Shotokan Karate with Shindo Yoshin Ryu Jujutsu. Following the Founder's example, Cody draws upon his knowledge of Filipino Combat Systems and other arts in his analysis of this Traditional Japanese Fighting Art.
