You must be fearless to be truly compassionate.This is the promise and final end-goal of traditional Martial Arts and Okinawan GoJu-Ryu Karate and is sadly missing in the arts as practiced today.What others are saying:"Karate: Beneath The Surface is a work of uncommon honesty and self-discovery.

Gary Gabelhouse said This book is not so much a "How To" as much as it is a chronicle of one man's love affair with Karate. Kamen causes us to stretch our collective minds with regard to how we see our Karate Kata. This book is not so much a "How To" as much as it is a chronicle of one man's love affair with Karate. Its honesty and passion pervades this book that reads like a travelogue of our own personal journeys down the path of Budo.. "I personally enjoy hearing others people affair with karate and what it" according to César Cámara Martín. A very honest and personal journey that feels very familiar and at the same time provides new insights and perspective to kata and our beloved art.After many years we may feel very familiar with what we practice, but we forget that there are many walking the way and as pilgrims we may stop and chat, share our experiences and learn from each other.
