He is the father of Japanese karate and there is no doubt. He is the one who brought karate from Okinawa to Japan in 1922. He is undoubtedly a man of commitment and his determination to teaching the world is now manifested in that the word karate is now part of the Webster's Dictionary. Funakoshi can be seen performing kata and also doing Ippon kumite later in his life in post-war Japan. There was only one Gichin Funakoshi and his reputation as a scholar is only succeeded by his skill and the fact that he brought karate to the rest of the world. This double DVD set is an absolute must for any who have never seen him perform.
