Defend Yourself with Judo was originally published in 1960 and is a concise and practical guide to self-defense applications using Judo techniques, In the author's own words:"What I have tried to offer is a reasonably comprehensive system of techniques, which I have found to prove their worth, whilst ¿ghting under combat conditions with a friend. Although individual mastery of each separate defence is the ¿rst essential, when this is achieved, they must all be blended together to form a somewhat limited, yet complete, system in order to increase their potential effectiveness."

One of the basic assumptions teachers of self-defense make is that one's potential opponent always possesses greater strength. Although this is of course not always the case, the assumption remains valid, for it is when one does find himself physically overpowered that he is in need of special skills.The techniques taught in this authoritative manual are therefore not based upon strength, but knowledge, skill, and timing: knowledge of the various techniques that may be used in a given situation, skill in the application of these techniques, and timing in gaining the advantage through surprise. The authors, both acknowledged experts in hand-to-hand combat, lead us through more than eighty self-defense techniques, supplementing their explanations with photographs showing the movements, step by step, and with additional close-up illustrations of key points.Each of the techniques presented here is the product of the combined efforts of generations of study, through which maximum use of available force through principles of balance have been continually refined and perfected. Derived from the art and science of Jiujitsu and currently a portion of Judo training, they are the techniques presently in use and part of the curriculum at law enforcement academies across the Far East.The instruction contained in Techniques of Self-Defense will be of benefit to men, women, and children of all ages. For, consistent with the Eastern philosophy from which it stems, it emphasizes self-protection rather than violence as such. A thorough study of its pages, hand in hand with diligent practice, will reward the student with positive mental attitudes, good body conditioning, and general agility and grace.

Xing Yi is a powerful yet subtle martial art, which was forged on ancient battlefields during China's feudal era. Based on spear methods, the art was developed by many generations of masters. These masters studied the fighting strategies of animals and embodied them, to make their own fighting skills more effective.This book was previously known as 'Xing Yi - A Study of Tai and Tuo Xing' and is a study of two of Xing Yi's advanced, yet less well known fighting strategies. Which are the fascinating methods of Tai Xing (Flycatcher) and Tuo Xing (Crocodile).This is a must have book for anyone who is practicing Xing Yi or other fighting arts, and who would like to explore the fighting strategy of animals within a martial context.

The practice of Kata Judo, the formal demonstration of throws (Nage-no-kata), demonstration of holds (Katame-no-kata) and demonstration of gentleness(Ju-no-kata) is an essential part of Judo training. Too much emphasis placed on winning competitions can mean that too little time is spent acquiring the self discipline which is at the heart of Judo. The execution of Kata requires a far greater degree of perfection than Randori, or free practice, and can therefore improve standards, and can also be enjoyed long after a person's competitive days are over. In 1993, Trevor Leggett's classic books on Kata were combined in a single comprehensive volume at the request of the British Judo Association and which for many years was the approved text on Kata. This concise text provides accurate move-by-move explanations. With simplified line drawings showing the essential elements of the moves and photographic sequences which illustrate every stage, this volume is an essential reference work for anyone interested in Judo. The third part of this book covers the practice of Ju-no-kata which was devised by Dr Jigoro Kano, the founder of modern Judo, and the photos in this part of the book are of Dr Kano himself, performing the Ju-no-kata.

Xing Yi is a very old fighting art from China, whose techniques are based around the use of the spear. The spear being one of the primary weapons of choice for use upon the battlefield in ancient China. The overarching strategy of Xing Yi relies upon embodying the fighting strategy or 'essence' of different animals. All of which were studied and chosen by the Xing Yi masters of the past, due to their unique and effective fighting abilities.This book which was called 'Xing Yi Snake', is a study on the fighting strategy of this ancient reptile, of which two types are included within the art of Xing Yi. These being the viper and the constrictor, which have very different approaches to hunting and dispatching prey.Within a fighting context, they provide the Xing Yi practitioner with two very different but complementary combat strategies.
