The Kata and Bunkai of Goju-Ryu KarateThe Essence of the Heishu and Kaishu Kata【電子書籍】[ Giles Hopkins ]
<p>Challenging timeworn conventions of karate training and revealing the original intent of classical <em>kata</em>ーor formsーthrough detailed descriptions of self-defense applications known as <em>bunkai</em>, this is a crucial addition to any martial-arts library. Containing more than 265 photos, the book is divided into chapters that illuminate each of the ten classical kata of Goju-ryu.<br /> ?<br /> Drawing on more than forty years of experience in the martial arts, Giles Hopkins Sensei takes us on a journey into the Goju-ryu karate system, providing a principles-based method for analysis of kata practice. Arguing against the commonly held notion that kata techniques can have multiple interpretations, he insists that a kata cannot simply mean what the user wants it to mean, but contains specific martial principles that must be followed for it to work effectively.<br /> ?<br /> The step-by-step descriptions of the receiving, controlling or bridging, and finishing techniques contain in-depth analysis of commonly misunderstood aspects of kata. Each chapter concludes with an engaging anecdote from the author’s time in Okinawa, the birthplace of Goju-ryu, connecting it with the kata under discussion. Equally useful for the novice and for more advanced karate practitioners looking to deepen their understanding of kata and bunkai.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。
