Books and DVD's
« on: April 05, 2008, 10:38:36 PM »
I am going to see Mike from Mona books tommorrow to pick up a copy of Sensei Kawasoe's DVD set, beginnner to black belt

I have also searched for book reccomendations. and found Moleys list, thanks for this.

The top two were
# 1 “Moving Zen” by C.W.Nicol for a general read. and for technical;
# 2 “Best Karate series” by M.Nakayama Sensei.

As this thread goes back a couple of years, any recent thoughts, I can only afford to get one with the DVD's tommorrow.

Thanks

O'i enillion prin a'i amal gur.

I also like Beginner To Black Belt by H.D. Plee - old book but well worth a read.
