I THE MARTIAL ARTIST - KARATE EDITION should be part of every dojos "curriculum".

This edition (Origins & Beginnings) relates to every true karate styleīs history.

I have been part of the "karate world" for 42 years and i have never come across something so valuable ! Itīs been created for the junior karate-ka but i think there are many adults who wouldnīt mind having this in their collection, myself included.

Congratulation Ki Martial Arts InterActive.
