Rating: Summary: Excellent guide to self defense Review: This book is outstanding. I have 13 years experience in different martial arts (tae kwon do, kickboxing, Brazilian Jujitsu) and think that this is a very complete resource. I was impressed by the explanations and photos of techniques related to kickboxing and training, but what makes this so wonderful are these added features.1. actual self defense techniques using palm hand strikes instead of a closed fist 2. advice on ground fighting (using striking techniques) 3. advice for young children on self defense In addition, the training routines presented and pad drills are first rate. They even work with Thai boxing's elbow and knee strikes.
Rating: Summary: Excellent presentation of Kickboxing Review: This is a very clear and well done book on Kickboxing. It is great for someone curious about the sport. This book is written to pick up and get started immediately, and is great for beginners. If you are interested in learning about the sport, or learning the attacks, defenses, and training of kickboxing, I highly recommend this book to get started. Lots of pictures as well as step by step descriptions of each technique make it easy to learn quickly. Get this book, you won't be dissappointed.
