Synopsis

The Crane and the Grandmaster is a unique blend of martial arts philosophy, personal journey, and behind-the-scenes storytelling from one of the most beloved films of the 1980s, the Karate Kid.

As a lifelong martial artist and grandmaster, my experiences span decades of training, competition, and instruction. However, an unexpected turn in my journey led to my being featured in The Karate Kid, where I performed in the legendary tournament scenes and doubled for Pat Morita in the film's iconic crane technique moment. A fact that was not credited or publicized for decades.

This book chronicles my evolution from a young Kenpo Karate student to a martial arts master, offering a perspective that intertwines discipline, philosophy, and the pursuit of mastery.

It provides an insider's look at The Karate Kid-the making of the fight sequences, my interactions with the cast, and the lasting impact of the film on martial arts and pop culture. More than just a memoir, The Crane and the Grandmaster details my exploration of Eastern philosophies contrasted by my studies in science and religion. It explores deeper lessons of martial arts that are only experienced through generations of teaching: from humility and perseverance to the balance of ego and wisdom.
