Summary: A Student's Review
Review: First, let me admit to my bias...I've been a student of Ken Melbourne's art since 1996. Through Ken's wisdom and patience, I've become a serious and enthusiastic student of the martial arts. I was delighted when Ken undertook this project as it represented an execellent vehicle for disseminating the tremendous insight that he has into this form of fighting art. Ken covers a wide range of valuable information from historical background, pressure point charts and applications, pre-1900 fundamentals (both hands and feet) and ground fighting Kata. The book contains many photographs of the various movements to assist the reader in understanding the topics. I can recommend this book to students of any of the martial arts as this material will enhance your understanding of your particular art as well as improve your martial ars technique.
