Sendo-Ryu Karate-Do The Way of Initiative covers the complete traditional karate syllabus from the most basic skills of stance, punching and kicking to kumite, kata and knife defenses. Illustrated with over 80 diagrams and 400 photographs this book is a complete guide to the Sendo-Ryu Karate system, including all of the techniques required for black belt testing.
In Sendo-Ryu Karate-Do The Way of Initiative, Professor Emeric Arus SOKE 10th Dan Black Belt and Founder/President of the International Sendo-Ryu Karatedo Federation, introduces a highly effective self-defense and sport Karate system.
This versatile and highly combative style incorporates the technical elements, basic training principles and general philosophy of four major Japanese styles: SHOTOKAN, WADO-RYU, GOJU-RYU and SHITO-RYU KARATEDO. Professor Arus has introduced new and efficient Karate techniques for both attack and defense. Leg-sweeps, throws, chokes, arm and leglock techniques from Judo, Jujitsu, Aikijujutsu, as well as systematized fighting principles and a strong methodology in Kumite (fighting), make Sendo-Ryu Karate-Do an altogether unique style.
SENDO can be translated as the Way of Initiative. The research for Sendo-Ryu Karate-Do The Way of Initiative is the result of more than 40 years experience in the practice and teaching of martial arts. The principles are based on very solid biomechanical, physiological and methodological foundations.
