About Buddha Crane Karate: Matrixing is a method of logic. While it can be used in any endeavor, it is specific to the Martial Arts. This book, 'Buddha Crane Karate, ' demonstrates how Matrixing was created, and how it is used to delineate and align martial arts. Mind you, it is only the forerunner of the matrixing courses offered on my website, but it is pivotal to the development of matrixing, and thus extremely important. In this book you'll see... The circle of blocks that eventually developed into the matrix of blocks. How I developed the buddha palm as a split timing sort of thing, which evolved Karate from a block and counter method. The exact thing that mushes data together and destroys the alphabet of the martial arts. You'll see my first arguments as to how and why the martial arts become corrupted. You'll see my first thoughts solving internal energy which will develop into the book on 'The Punch.' You'll see mention of various arts and how they contribute to matrixing. You'll see my first conclusions regarding matrixing all the directions of the universe. You'll see the data concerning how I developed thousands of techniques from the logical arrangement of just a few techniques. You'll see a lot of things that developed directly into matrixing, or showed how I did it. Further, you'll see how I created and arranged concepts and motions to make an entire art. Ground up, right from the start, and in a way so you'll understand that I was not throwing away the classical, but trying to right it. Now, here's the thing. I never offered this book for sale. I bundled it in with the Create Your Own Art course, and that because of the way I was using matrixing to create a new art out of the old. So, unless you ordered Create Your Own Art, you likely haven't seen this book. About the Author: Al Case began Martial Arts in 1967.
