INF: Mind Power – Secret Strategies for the Martial Arts
by Kazumi Tabata
What fascinated me about this book is that it describes how things happen in slow motion to the experienced Martial Artist in an attack situation.
This is exactly what happened to me when I was attacked once at around 10pm on George St. About 10 young men came along the street looking for trouble.
One of these was actually pushing me once, when I noticed that everything was slowing down. I remember considering using a straight Mae-Geri aiming at his stomach, but then thought that I cannot risk that he gets up again, so I chose a Shuto-Uke to his throat.
After the decision was made I blocked his next attempt to push me around by grabbing his wrists and bending it backwards.
For some reason that was enough to convince him and his friends to back off.
INF: Karate Kata Applications
If you are looking for your first book that introduces you into the applications (Bunkai) and meaning behind the techniques in your (Shotokan) Karate Katas then this is it. But the emphasis lies on ‘introduction’.
It is well described and clearly documented with pictures. The introductory nature come with the basic application scenarios and techniques that are covered. Mostly simple block/counter-attack scenarios.
This is not your book if you are looking for advanced Kata applications, but good if you are on your way to black belt.

An excellent book for the advanced Black Belt. "The Tiger" himself shows the steps to 5 katas: Tekki Nidan, Tekki Sandan (2 versions), Nijushiho, Gojushiho Dai, Gojushiho Sho. Defininately a book to keep for the ISKF student/teacher of Shotokan!
