Bunkai: Secrets of Karate Kata - The Tekki Series

"A true breakthrough in martial arts publishing."
--Karate-do Times

"With no wasted space on preliminaries or filler, Dr. Schmeisser dives into the subject offering unique, imaginative but nonetheless applicable interpretations of karate forms which most practitioners have heretofore justified with fanciful and non-functional explanations."
--Tony Annesi, Takeshin Sogo Budo, author of Cracking the Kata Code, The Road to Mastery, and The Principles of Advanced Budo

"Carefully organized, coherent, and firmly rooted in a sense of reality. Dr. Schmeisser has done what many instructors have not yet been able to demonstrate, a cohesive and articulate interpretation of the techniques of the Tekki kata."
