| karate manual: Bubishi , 2016-05-31 Treasured for centuries by karate's top masters, the Bubishi is a classic Chinese work on philosophy, strategy, medicine, and technique as they relate to the martial arts. Referred to as the bible of karate by famous master Chojun Miyagi, for hundreds of years the Bubishiwas a secret text passed from master to student in China and later in Okinawa. All of karate's legendary masters have studied it, applied its teachings, or copied passages from it. No other classic work has had as dramatic an impact on the shaping and development of karate as the Bubishi. Karate historian and authority Patrick McCarthy spent over ten years researching and studying the Bubishi and the arts associated with it. The first English translation of this remarkable martial arts manual includes numerous explanations and notes. McCarthy's work also includes groundbreaking research on Okinawan and Chinese history, as well as the fighting and healing traditions that developed in those countries, making it a gold mine for researchers and practitioners alike. For the final word on the true origins and spirit of classic Okinawan martial arts, one need look no further. This karate book is one of the best karate training supplements available. |
| karate manual: A Goju Ryu Guidebook Michael P. Cogen, Michael P. Cogan Mse, 2003 A Goju Ryu Guidebook: The Kogen Kan Manual for Karate gives the reader a tool to navigate the history, exercises, equipment, techniques, kata (forms) and kumite (sparring) of Okinawan Goju Ryu Karatedo. The purpose of this guidebook is to serve as a training aid in furthering the development of karate students and instructors from the Kogen Kan specifically and all karate students generally; however, if it helps only one person, then I will consider it a success. Please keep in mind that much of this information is in notation form and may only make sense with proper instruction. This guidebook is only a tool to help in the retention of instruction and is not a substitute for it. Also, please keep in mind, that although others have assisted with this guidebook, all errors are my own. This guidebook is formatted in such a way as to be the beginnings of a filing and retrieval system. As each student collects more information, they can organize it by adding it to the notes area of the respective sections. It is hoped that all students will research, collect and share material about karate. It is this type of systematic approach that brings science to the art. It is also written so that a lesson plan can be developed quickly by choosing one or more activities from several sections. If more details are needed while teaching, they can quickly referenced in the rest of the manual. Each chapter is given a table of contents to further hasten referencing. It has a spiral coil binding so it will lay flat for easy viewing during training. Large font also helps in referencing the information from a distance. Much of this guidebook is written in Japanese. This is done for two reasons: first, it is important to learn Japanese, as it will help standardize everyone's martial arts training; and secondly, this will help keep this information in the purview of the serious. It is a barrier, which will hopefully weed out some who may not use the martial arts for purposes which they were intended, namely the protection of self and others. Thank you for reading this guidebook. Michael P. Cogan, MSE |

Kirk’s singular fighting skills, Star Trek: Kirk Fu Manual is every Starfleet cadet's must-have training guide for surviving the final frontier. As captain of the legendary U.S.S. Enterprise, James T. Kirk engaged in his share of fisticuffs, besting opponents with a slick combination of moves and guile that remains unmatched.

A blend of various fighting styles, Kirk Fu incorporates elements of several Earth-based martial arts forms as well as cruder methods employed in bars and back alleys on planets throughout the galaxy.

This series of training manual will define and identify the core of martial arts training the effective, superior and thorough methodology of the Art of Not Fighting. Not to be confused with Bruce Lee's phrase Fighting without fighting, these training manuals identify the essential qualities, fundamentals and guidelines of how to eliminate fighting all together. Fighting is defined as an exchange of blows between two or more individuals while these manuals lay down a road map to prevent the occurrence of exchanging blows with another. The Art of not fighting is an approach to personal security base on trigonometric objects such as the circle, triangle, square and what we call the two fifth theory of defense. Combining these elements, you can become a powerhouse in defensive strategies by utilizing the power of geometry by limiting movement of the human body. This series of manuals will give you the basic, intermediate and advanced structure to build a most powerful defensive platform for personal security. No matter the size of the individual, understanding the knowledge in these manuals will help you develop a superior defensive stronghold. The Universal Shorei-Goju Karate System was created and founded by four times World Champion Shujin Master Ben Peacock and he has written these books revealing the secrets, fundamental, methodology that took him to the top of the food chain, so to speak. The Methods are solid, proven to work and cannot be questioned as he have proven them over and over during a twenty year span of championship trophies, awards and actual street encounters. Once you have completed the series, you will realize why the Universal Shorei-Goju Karate System stands alone in the category of the best system for personal security. |
