{"product_id":"my-life-in-the-art-kyoshi-anthony-ferguson-9781504394796","title":"My Life in the Art of Shorin Ryu Matsubayashi Ryu Karate","description":"Anthony Ferguson's love of martial arts began when he was a little boy growing up in Miami, Florida. There he would go with his brother to see kung fu movies at the theater every Saturday. As a teenager, Ferguson decided he needed to know how to defend himself from an attack after a bad experience, and fate drew him to a school that taught the style of Shorin-Ryu Matsubayashi-Ryu karate. Shortly after graduating from high school, he earned his first-degree black belt, and he has never looked back. Now he recalls his lifelong journey in practicing Shorin-Ryu karate. Using his personal narrative, he hopes to encourage others to learn about this martial art and the benefits it can bring to those who study it: discipline, focus, respect for others, self-control, and awareness. In this memoir, one man shares the story of his path in the martial arts from student to master and recounts how studying karate as a teenager changed his life for the better.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Kyoshi Anthony Ferguson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1504394798\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781504394796\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Balboa Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/10\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 178\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.51lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.41d","brand":"Kyoshi Anthony Ferguson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":45180250980607,"sku":"9781504394796","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_2a255830-fe78-41f3-a31c-1131c40f50d7.jpg?v=1712897762","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/my-life-in-the-art-kyoshi-anthony-ferguson-9781504394796","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
