KARATE: THE PRACTICAL FIGHTING ART
IAIN ABERNETHY & GAVIN MULHOLLAND

OPEN SEMINAR: 19th FEBRUARY 2006, SOLIHULL, BIRMINGHAM

The seminar covers applications from both the Shuri- and Naha-based kata found in countless modern styles, including Shotokan, Wado Ryu, Goju Ryu and Kyokushinkai. The kata are rich in simple, realistic self defence techniques including strikes, locks, chokes, throws, grappling and ground-fighting.
