Atemi Cobra-Jujitsu: Martial Arts for the Millenium Years to Come in the New Generation

Rating:
Summary: Waste of time & paper
Review: If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, this author must be the world's deadliest man. The horrible illustrations are only matched by the impossible to follow instruction. It's enough to make me want to switch to tae kwon do.

Summary: Atemi Cobra Jujitsu
Review: This was the most effective Martial Art book I've ever read. It contains a detailed description on how to do nearly everything in Jujitsu. I have seen also that you can learn moves easily and do them the real way.

Summary: How NOT to prepare martial arts instruction
Review: This work is disappointing in every category. It is poorly organized; text and photos are mismatched and incomplete. The production quality is really terrible; everyone in the photos is wearing black, the camera is 20 feet back, and the halftone screens in the photos are extremely coarse making it impossible to see any detail. The text descriptions of the katas are disorganized and inadequate; filled with grammatical errors and mispellings. The katas themselves are preposterous set-ups showing Prof. Soto overwhelming 3 and 4 pistol wielding attackers at once. A great deal of content is dedicated to Prof. Soto's celebrity shots. For the asking price, one might expect more than this thin paperback provides. I am not sure what Prof. Soto set out to accomplish in this book other than a sideshow of self aggandizement.
