Synopsis

With this book, you take your first step towards learning the ancient art of karate. Dr. Queen is your sensei or teacher: a fifth-degree black belt who has taught thousands of boys and girls how to do karate. Now it is your turn! With its powerful punches, strong kicks, swift blocks and challenging combinations, karate gives kids a great physical and mental workout - and teaches them discipline, too. From the underlying philosophy of responsibility and respect to the movements and manoeuvres that comprise the actual routines, everything's here - with an emphasis on safety. There is no contact: karate means empty hand - the way of karate is with empty hands, without using weapons. 1: Karate - martial art of the Masters; 2: Getting Started - a guide for beginners; 3: Stances, Strikes, Blocks - basic skills; 4: Mastering Technique - skills into art; In full colour: 220 clear step-by-step colour photographs show warm ups; preparation stances; side and roundhouse kicks; palm heel strikes; upper, middle and low blocks; and tournament techniques.
