There are very few people you come across in your lifetime who make such an impact on your journey, and the journey of many others. This true story is of a good man, raised from humble beginnings in the tough streets of South Africa, who pushed through enormous challenges to become one of the great Karate Masters of this time. Hanshi Deena Naidu is a direct and faithful student of Gogen Yamaguchi Sensei. This is one of those untold stories of the classic quiet achiever. Someone who has stuck to his strong beliefs about the traditional way of Karate and followed the teachings of his master, Gogen Yamaguchi Sensei. He did not succumb to the Westernization of the art or the commercialization of the industry. If you have any interest in martial arts, traditional Karate and of course the politics behind the scenes then you need to read this book. Martial arts covers an enormous range of styles and teachings. Variations have surfaced and a lot of dance inspired forms have been created to cater for the modern, western lifestyle we endure. Without going back to the roots and some Okinawan schools, you will not find a more traditional and pure form of the art being practiced. This book explores the journey of Hanshi Deena Naidu and the paths taken by others and their organisations. Karate becoming an Olympic sport in the 2020 Olympics in Japan is a double edged sword - both sides of this argument will be discussed in this book.
