Customer Reviews

THIS IS A BOOK EVERY SINGLE MARTIAL ARTIST MUST HAVE!

This comprehensive book is very good. It explains Bruce Lee's art in a magnificent manner. There are over 650 photos along with tons of written information on the fighting techniques. They are really good and easy-to-learn. You can use the moves with complete confidence in a self-defense situation after just looking at the photos (seriously).Everyone should have this book!

A must for serious JKD practitioners

I own a copy of Chris Kent's book volume one and am going to purchase volume two. Financial and location difficulties only allow me a few months a year personal training with a Sifu in JKD so Mr. Kent's book helps me to practice movements and strategy in off months. It has good photos and text to help link the movements... extremely helpful. I mean it seems as Mr. Kent is right there helping you correct any problems in your techniques. It even has some grappling and holds as well which are essential to any martial artists skills.Also Read: the Tao of JKD by Master Bruce Lee, and also Mr. Lee's several part series on different aspects of his philosophy , art and training methods. (I found Mr. Lee's training methods to be especially helpful , when I use them they improve my physical aspects and contemplating some of his thoughts help in life as well. Try some of Dr. Masaaki Hatsumi/Stephen Hayes Ninjutsu/Taijutsu books and Park Bok Nam's Pa Kua/Ba Gua series. I like these three arts b/c they are adaptive and efficient as arts and life styles in my humble opinion.
