Could it be possible to defeat a grown man by abandoning traditional karate techniques? Was this a staged act? The authors, initially skeptical, desperately set out to unravel the mystery. They meticulously recorded every detail of the explanations and teachings from the founder, Hatamura, and his senior students, and are now revealing these secret techniques without reservation. This book is an ideal introduction to Ki-Kujutsu.
