Karate: Beneath The Surface: Emotional Content Of Kata

Karate: Beneath The Surface examines lessons learned during my 50+ years in the Martial Arts to understand the spiritual side of the art and impact my life in a positive way. Many of the ideas set forth herein may be hard to grasp for many Martial Artists who have been raised "in the box" that Karate is a physical fighting art and nothing more.The Koryu Kata of Traditional Okinawan GoJu-Ryu Karate hold a secret. These Kata have ancient roots containing advanced fighting techniques, fighting strategies, emotional energy and deep spiritual meaning. By passing through the various Kata of the system, a student gradually progesses through physical, emotional and spiritual states that ultimately provide a roadmap to becoming a fearless and compassionate human being - It is a path to Enlightenment.
