The esteemed master, Mr. Funakoshi Gichin, made a momentous decision to rename karate to "karate-dō" and published the "Karate-dō Kyōhan" in the 10th year of the Showa era (1935). Approximately 30 years ago, he presented this book, which was truly groundbreaking. The more one delves into it, the more one admires its excellence.

It serves as a guide to the completion of one's personality through karate-dō, encompassing:

Spiritual content as a martial art
Systemization of techniques
Evaluation of its value as physical education
Furthermore, it elucidates the origins of its history, leaving nothing undisclosed about the entirety of karate-dō. It is a timeless masterpiece of high elegance.
Now, disregarding my own modesty, I decided to publish this book because there has been a great demand from members and enthusiasts nationwide for a reference text to aid in practical training. Drawing from my 30 years of experience and the foundational techniques being refined at the Japan Karate Association headquarters, I have reorganized and systematized the basic techniques I compiled about 10 years ago into a comprehensive format, presenting this new textbook for widespread use.
