Customer Reviews

Adventure to Black Belt

The "Adventure to Black Belt" is the title. This is great, it is a basic step for the youth to progress in goal development.

Excellent Book

This book is excellent for any one who is taking ju-jitsu. It is a good reference book for any martial arts student. I recommend it to anyone that is seriously interested in this area.

Awesome book

Great book, great seller, very pleased. Goes over all the different pressure points in your body. Great for martial artists

Outstanding work on neglected aspect of jujutsu

As he did in his "Beginner" and "Intermediate" jujutsu books, George Kirby has written a lucid work that strikes an excellent balance between fighting theory and practical application. Very highly recommended.

Great technical resource for the advanced jujutsuka

If you are interested in exploring the concepts and application of nerve techniques then this book is a must-have. With an extensive nerve reference chart and tips on training and drills, this book reads more like a text book than a casual reference guide. The techniques presented show how to incorporate shioku-waza (nerve techniques) into your own art with little modification. Although the pictures are sometimes too small to pick up all of the detail, Kirby has cross-referenced each nerve used to the chart at the beginning of the book. Martial artists will not be disappointed.
