The Isshinryu Interactive Guide, Beginner's Edition

The Isshinryu Interactive Guide, Beginners' Edition, (IIG/BE), is intended as a supplemental guide for beginning karateka in the Isshinryu style.

The techniques are demonstrated by Seventh-degree (Nana-dan) Master Karl Kazuo Hovey.

The Guide explains the history and principles of the Isshinryu style, with emphasis on demonstrations of technique, exercises, and kata. It is intended for beginning karateka through the roku-kyu level.

• Learn the history and principles of Isshinryu karate

The Guide is the first in a series of releases by Proseco. Soon to come is the Intermediate Edition, with an Advanced Edition scheduled for later release. The Intermediate and Advanced Editions will have more weapons katas, along with bunkai demonstrations and more advanced katas.
