Masterclass Shotokan: Legacy of a Master 6 DVD Set by Teruyuki Okazaki

This series, filmed at Master Okazaki’s world headquarters in Philadelphia, guides you from the fundamental principles to the advanced applications of Karate-do. All the sections are demonstrated clearly from start to finish, in different camera angles to facilitate easy and accurate learning. Like none other before, this professional production combines direct instruction with actual footage of Master Okazaki teaching the technical elements in a group class at the Honbu Dojo.

Also included are special sections on Shotokan history, covering the beginnings of the art to the creation of the JKA and the early days in America to its expansion around the world. Additional technical segments about the proper use of Seiza, Makiwara training, and Bunkai practice also are part of this series.
