Karate als Budo

This book aims to fill gaps and shed light on dark corners of knowledge, answer open questions, and encourage readers to expand their own spectrum. Clear connections between physical and mental practice, form, and combat provide valuable assistance on the path of Karate. All areas of practice are discussed, and solutions to problems are offered. Historical backgrounds are explained, and special aspects of combat are examined, such as tactics or the effectiveness of techniques. The author illustrates how Ki, an essential element of Budo, runs like a red thread through the entire martial art of Karate, drawing on over 35 years of experience in practice and teaching.
