Black Belts Only is a game changer for modern Karate. Not only
because it restores Karate to the world of Budo, where acquiring
the ability to kill with one blow is the rite of passage. Not only
because it explains this martial art in terms of Ki energy and
Eastern concepts of Yin and Yang. But also because it
revolutionizes Karate by reinterpreting Kata, which, according to
Newhouse, are encrypted repositories of "means of escape" from
aggressors' holds, aimed at keeping near-fight situations from
escalating into full-blown fights. Through the pages of Black Belts
Only, previously impenetrable techniques are interpreted, opening
movements of Kata are explained, hidden conventions are unmasked.
No more gobbledygook that over the years has reduced Karate to the
level of common fighting or empty pageantry. In Black Belts Only,
Karate comes to life. Its ancient spirit re-awakens.
