A Good Choice
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
Corrigan's book features easy to follow lessons based onIsshinryu (Okinawan Karate). Illustrations are simple black and whitedrawings which make the "action" easy to follow. As a librarian I have recommended this book to my library system for its emphasis on attitude and confidence building. A good choice for schools, libraries or any child starting out in karate.
Karate Made Easy, by Corrigan
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
As a practitioner of Isshinryu karate for over 21 years, I was very impressed with this book. It is small in size, but loaded with useful information. In addition to very clearly-illustrated "how-to" procedures, Corrigan emphasizes self-respect, self-discipline and self-control, wonderful qualities for young people to be learning. I especially enjoyed how the author began each chapter with a little philosophy of how the "old masters" used to do things. As Corrigan states:karate is more than just punches and kicks.
Karate Made Easy captures how children should learn karate
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
This is an excellent book for children (and for the parents of children) who wish to learn karate. The instructions and illustrations of the physical aspects of karate are clear and easy to follow. More importantly, the philosophy of the book is one that I would encourage in karate students of any age.This book truely captures how children should be taught karate.
