More about the book
Focusing on the life of Ank Itosu, the book explores his significant role in the evolution of modern karate as both a martial art and sport. Born in 1831 in Okinawa's Shuri district, Itosu emerged from a low-ranked family during a period of upheaval. His dedication to martial arts and innovative training methods influenced a generation of practitioners, helping to spread karate globally. The narrative delves into his education, career, and lasting legacy, portraying him as a legendary figure in Okinawan history who shaped the future of karate until his death in 1915.
