by Emanuel Giordano (Author)
Shorin-ryu is the oldest existing karate style. From this martial style, suitable for everyone, and based on natural movements, modern Japanese karate is derived. In this book, Emanuel Giordano sensei, already author of the bestseller "The legend of the masters of Okinawan Karate-Biographies, curiosities and mysteries", examines the history, the technique and the applicative and moral principles of this style. In order to make it easier to understand, the book is full of images and diagrams. Inside there are also a glossary of terms in Uchinaaguchi, an interview with Maeshiro Morinobu sensei and the photo execution of the kata Nahihanchi, correlated by applications. This book is the first of a series related to Shorin-ryu.
