Articoli correlati a The Heart of Karate-Do
Beginning with the warming-up exercises - neglected in earlier karate books - and continuing with the fundamental stances and techniques, the student can learn to preserve that pliancy and flexibility and at the same time develop his natural strength, agility and coordination.
From the method presented in this book, the beginner can understand what it means to be calm of spirit but quick of mind. While actualizing the basic skills that lead to the confidence necessary to face any adversary, he will also develop the discipline that checks the misuse of such skills.
More advanced students, also, will find much of value here, for the author's practice of karate spans more than four decades, and he assesses both the changes in ways of training and in the way of thinking - as well as the significance of these changes. He shows the path leading to strengthening of body and mind and, thus, to harmony of mind and body.
