KARATE'S JOINT LOCKS
Volume 3

In modern times karate is most frequently practised as a limited mid- to long-range striking only system. However, it wasn't always that way! Originally karate was a holistic fighting system that covered all ranges and all martial aspects.

Whilst there is a great deal of information available on karate's modern striking methods, information on the close-range aspect of the art is very sparse. This unique series of DVDs reveals the joint locks of karate.

Through studying these DVDs, karateka will learn where joint-locks are recorded within the traditional kata, and also how they can expand upon the examples of the kata to yet further develop their knowledge.

This volume covers both Wrist-Locks and Leg-Locks and shows numerous ways to manipulate and lock the wrists, ankles, knees and hips, both from a standing position and from on the floor. These DVDs are a must for all karateka who wish to practise karate in a holistic and pragmatic way.
