Fighting Forms - the book

“This book is well written, easy to follow and has a great deal to offer the pragmatically minded karateka. It makes a great addition to the collective knowledge base, it will be a valuable addition to your library and, most importantly of all, it could add a whole new dimension to your kata training.”

Iain Abernethy 5th Dan
Author of Bunkai-Jutsu: The Practical Application of Karate Kata

“The book not only highlights, with clear photos and easy to follow explanations, Matthew’s concept of two man kata bunkai, it also explains an excellent way of understanding kata and its potential applications. I am sure that this book will likewise be an asset to all readers and that the knowledge within will have a very positive effect on their karate training.”

Doug James, 7th Dan

“Fighting Forms is well written, packed full of easy-to-understand applications, has good photos and a step-by-step guild to Kushanku, and uses Practical with a capital 'P'.”
