"Master Butin’s new video set and book is a well thought out masterpiece on how to survive in the karate ring and real life! Quite a while ago, in the early 1970’s, I had the honor to compete with Mr. Butin at a karate tournament. I have had the opportunity to be in the ring with some of the toughest karate practitioners in the world and he is certainly in the mix.
When I was in the ring with Master Butin I thought I saw an opening and started my attack. The only problem was that I ended up with an extremely well placed turning back kick deeply impaled in my solar plexus. I immediately fell to the ground with the breath knocked out of me. I thought I was going to die! However, I know I lived and his karate techniques really work extremely well!."

"I thought it was done very well. I learned two things that I did not know, the arc, and the pivot. Dialogue was very easy to follow, and your explanations and “why’s” were good."

To Whom It May Concern:
I had the good fortune to earn my Black Belt from Jim Butin in June of 1974 and the good luck to attend North Texas State with him in the early 70’s. Years of sparing, training and instruction under Jim brought me a great deal of success in the “Blood and Guts” area of Texas Karate. His teaching techniques and understanding of what works and why, are the real deal. His detail to timing, body posture and execution work. His instruction comes across in a clear, easy to understand format that will make you a more proficient and skilled student of Karate.

PS: His defensive turn kick was brutal!
