“10 Rules of Karate
is a book for readers who like it straight. The authors point out very clearly the why, what and how in karate when it comes to an unavoidable physical fight. Since losing isn’t an option on or off the mat, this is an absolute must read for karateka

“In your hands is a book that cuts straight through the chatter and gets to the point of unarmed self-defense. No relying on luck, no need for hoping that strength alone will carry the day. This is advice, as straight as it gets, which gets to the heart of what is important, and despite the title is applicable regardless of martial arts style or system. Wilder and Kane have a down-to-earth, straight-forward approach that makes this book both readable and informative. You will have moments of, ‘Why didn't I think of it like that before,’ and other moments where you feel that the scales have been removed from your eyes and you can see clearly for the first time. For the beginner martial artist or the seasoned veteran this book holds much value. Read. Absorb. Keep what is useful. The rest will take care of itself.” — Wallace Smedley

“The beauty of dojo
training is also its biggest weakness outside the dojo
. Wilder and Kane masterfully take the safe, structured lessons of karate and show how they must adapt to survive the chaos of real-world violence. Weaving together boxing principles, samurai wisdom, tactics of warfare and even marketing strategy, they establish a seamless and immutable path to victory. Highly recommended!” — Goran Powell
