One of America's foremost experts on the Japanese martial arts
shows that karate is not just a sport or a hobby - it's a lifetime
study toward perfection of character. Dave Lowry illuminates the
culture, philosophy, and practice of this popular martial art and
covers myriad subjects of interest to karate practitioners of all
ages and levels including: the relationship between students and
teachers; cultivating the correct attitude during practice; the
differences between karate in the East and West; and, whether a
karate student really needs to study in Japan to perfect the art.He
also covers: the meaning of rank and the black belt; detailed
descriptions of kicks, punches, evasions, and techniques and the
philosophical concepts that they manifest; what practice means and
looks like as one ages; and, how the practice of karate aims toward
cultivating character and spiritual development. After forty years
studying karate and the budo arts, Lowry is an informative and
reliable guide, highlighting aspects of the karate path that will
surprise, entertain, and enlighten.
