Charts: Isshinryu's Basic Techniques
While it seems like this is just a list of mundane techniques that can easily be learned over a few sessions, the charts are one of the most important elements in Isshinryu. Some of the best martial artists spent months working on these basics before they moved on to learning katas. Take the time to learn them correctly; they will serve you will later. They are like the alphabet; if you don't know your alphabet and each letter's sounds, you will never be able to read.
