Having instructors who did not profess to know it all, and teachers who encouraged John Burke to experiment and train in different styles and methods gave him the ability to recognise the core of the arts rather than the peripherals. Thus, the applications shown here are useful no matter what style of Karate you train in or which group you are a part of.
