*Signed by Sean Kanan* Welcome back to the dojo! It is my honor to resume COBRA training as your Sensei. In Way of the COBRA, you learned how to smash your obstacles, conquer your goals and unleash your inner badass. Now, I will teach you how to defeat your greatest opponent in the most important battle of your life; welcome to the Kumite. Kumite refers to both training to face an adversary and the epic battle which lies ahead of you. That’s right COBRA, unleashing your inner badass was just the beginning. A COBRA not only maintains their edge but increases it daily. How? By winning the Kumite. The tools and methods I use on a daily basis to safeguard my progress and ensure my continued success are revealed in Welcome to the Kumite. Much of what you will learn in this book may initially seem new to you, however it is not. All the knowledge you require to win the Kumite and fulfill your destiny, already lives within you.
