When combined, the Goju Ryu Technical Series and the Encyclopedia of Goju Ryu  represent the entire Goju Ryu karate curriculum from basic techniques, through the kata and their applications, kakie, locks, throws and takedowns. Power Training adds the entire body training and conditioning regime of Goju Ryu karate that is considered to be Chojun Miyagi’s masterpiece, the perfection of which is considered essential if the applications of the kata are to be applied with maximum effect during actual combat. Goju Ryu Karate Kata that shows Higaonna Sensei performing all 12 Goju Ryu kata almost 30 years ago is both a historical record, and visual proof that the kata does not, and must not change. A biography of Higaonna Sensei has been added to the latest DVD  version of this program.

The complete series of 17 DVDs took ten years to produce under the direction of Higaonna Sensei, and was approved by him at every stage of post production and editing. It is the complete record of, and reference to, the karate of Chojun Miyagi Sensei, and the unfaltering guide to the correct performance of the kata. It is also the way that Higaonna Sensei teaches it, and directs that it be practiced throughout the IOGKF. Any deviation from the method shown here must be viewed as incorrect and not “Goju Ryu.”
