A solid overview of a complicated art

Taking a martial art as complicated as jujitsu and making an accessible text for beginners is no small task. There is much more to the deep art of jujitsu, but the authors chose a subset appropriate for a beginner. I think that this book is a solid selection of the most common jujitsu practices, with chapters on beginning preparation work and techniques, jujitsu history, competition and training methods. I've been impressed with time spent on the basics in jujitsu programs: safely falling & rolling, stances and dojo etiquette. This is out of necessity; jujitsu techniques are very effective and without the basic rules, accidental injuries during training are a certainty. On the downside, this means most jujitsu books (including this one) have to spend a large part of their text on common material. This is mainly a reference material, as Books and DVDs do not make good primary instructional material for martial arts, so plan on attending a seminar or finding a good local school to get the most from this book.

Becoming a Man

My friend Dov was extremely concerned about his obesity, as well as his femininity. Dov was constantly tormented by kids at school and felt that he had to do something about it. I recommended George Kirby's book to him because I felt that it would help him get in touch with his masculine side (if he actually had one). Since that time Dov has gone down in weight from 425 LBs to 375 and he has been acting somewhat more manly...Don't worry Dov, you"ll get there... keep jujitsuing

My Friend Was Right

I can't believe how great this book is. My friend Judah who is a fourth degree black belt recommended this book to me. He is a master of Jujitsu and everything that he showed me in person was explained very clearly in the book. Thank you Judah.

An excellent detailed book

Musser and Lang cover both the technical and philosophical points in clear and detailed fashion. This is a great book on jujitsu.

Excellent Foundational Book of Danzan Ryu Jujitsu

Musser & Lang Sensei provided in clear and understandable illustrations and text as a primer for any student of any skill level. It is an excellent source of the foundational principles and practices of the very thorough system of Danzan Ryu Jujitsu. If you want to learn about Jujitsu for the first time this is a great starting point. If you want to hone your existing skills this is also the book for you. Highly recommended.
