'Karate - the way of "empty hands" - is a form of unarmed combat that had its origins in India and China many hundreds of years ago. Beginning with a fascinating account of its history, Rob Marsh goes on to describe the various styles of karate that are practised in southern Africa today. Then in simple, easy-to-understand language he explains the underlying principles behind this increasingly popular sport, its stances, defensive and attacking techniques, and set sequences of moves or "kata". He includes a chapter on body-conditioning; on competition karate, a relatively new phenomenon; on tamashiwari, the technique by which wood, stone, tiles or other highly resistant materials are broken in a spectacular test of strength; and on the dojo, the meeting-place where karate is practised in an atmosphere quite distinct from that of the conventional Western sports club. The book ends with a description of the experiences of a young South African karate student who lived in Japan and trained there under the top masters. The text is profusely illustrated with photographs and drawings.' Click here for full details of this book, to ask a question or to buy it on-line.
