Karate The Japanese Way is a book about how karate is practiced and taught in Japan. Written by author Mark Groenewold, a teacher and karate student in Japan, this text gives readers a peek into a traditional karate training hall in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan.This text is ideal for karate students of all levels, and for Western karate instructors as well. Written in an informative, yet conversational style, Karate The Japanese Way hopes to encourage new students and challenge older ones to check their own experiences and styles against how karate is traditionally taught in Japan.Karate training, to new-comers, is a unusual and strange experience. This book clarifies mis-understandings and mis-insformation about karate and gives some guidance as to how to find good, safe, and practical karate instruction. Dozens of photos are throughout this book, showing rather than telling readers what karate is really like here in Japan.
