Recomended Reading

Beginners' Handbook
|
|
 |
We know you will have many questions. After 40+ years of training, Doran Sensei has probably heard every possible question asked. Sensei wrote the Beginners’ Handbook to answer your questions efficiently. He recommends that if you have the time, you become familiar with the Beginners' Handbook before attending your first class. |
