– These books are a good starting point for the serious student.

– This book is a solid step in the Practical direction.

– I use it for supplemental training.

– Because of my experience, the information provided allowed me to assess understanding and practice of the present techniques I’m already know and alter and update on it.

– My past major sensei’s have been Yasuzato Yoriko ( great-granddaughter of Asato Anko ) she is still alive and teaching, and Katsuya Miyahira (trained under Chosin Chibana) who has passed. I’ve recently purchased “Okinawa karate 1,2 & 3. I was taught the classical way so naturally any teachings with that in mind led me to your books. Thank you very much for passing these valuable knowledge along for which I continue to add to my practice and pass on to my own students to keep this tradition alive 🙏
