Understanding Karate-do: A Guide to Unity of Body, Mind, and Soul
Owen Johnston
Understanding Karate Do is the official student training manual of Johnston Karate. The revised and expanded 4th edition of the book includes additional articles, such as the class syllabus, more sparring tips and drills, as well as various fitness articles.
Karate is an exciting and rewarding holistic pursuit practiced by millions around the world. Whether you are an existing or prospective student of martial arts, there is always something new to learn. I have hopefully provided a good starting point, as Understanding Karate Do details history, various techniques, combat principles, and philosophy. The book also goes into detail about Mizuumi ryu Karate, the style I founded and currently teach. The style is dedicated to the development of body, mind, and spirit, in a holistic manner.
A comprehensive listing of all techniques,and variations as practiced in every family style and branch of karate, as well as the differences in kata between branches, is beyond the focus of this book. Also, no book, no matter how technical the explanations and pictures, can possibly replace formal instruction. Therefore, Understanding Karate Do does include a general guide to principles, technique, and kata that I hope will serve you alongside your daily training. Many more articles are also included in Understanding Karate Do, such as the aforementioned articles on history, philosophy, physical conditioning, terminology, and more.
The general learning curve intended is for body mechanics, mental discipline, and ethical precepts to be practiced in the first phases of training. After such training, application of principles, mental focus, and personal development may be assisted.
