I have trained with Sensei Kase many times &
think he would have been proud of this production by one of
his seniors. The content is clearly aimed at beginners, with
the instructer not compromising this & sticking to the
levels it is for. The basics, kata & kumite presented
are clear & consise & in keeping with Sensei Kase's
method. As an introduction to his method of training &
for karateKa training in Sensei Kase way this is a MUST HAVE
reference material.
It looks like it is part of a series, so I can't
wait to view the next one. A blackbelt version of Sensei Kase's
method would be interesting.
