Book Synopsis Jeet Kune Do Foundations by : Jason Korol
Download or read book Jeet Kune Do Foundations written by Jason Korol and published by . This book was released on 2018-05-04 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's easy to see the reality of violence. It's easy to see that it isn't choreographed and that highly complex routines won't work under the pressures of a real fight because bad guys don't stand still and cooperate. Moreover, it's easy to see that real fights aren't sporting matches or sparring contests either. Yes, this is all obvious to the person who wants to learn a method in order to protect themselves against a real threat. What isn't so easy is finding a method that takes all these things seriously and gives you the simple truth of the matter. That was, in fact, exactly what the late Bruce Lee sought when he developed his ingenious fighting method, Jeet Kune Do. His brilliance wasn't only in his movies but also in the fact that he understood the root of the issue. And what's that? Simple - that the whole goal is keeping yourself as safe as possible and the best defense is a good offense and the best offense is a scientific counter-attack. Thus, the heart of JKD is the intercepting/stopping fist (or foot). Most methods give you dozens - even hundreds - of techniques. JKD favors the straight punch and kick. The entire system is a set-up for the basics and once they're understood and practiced properly they can be expertly deployed by anyone. In Jeet Kune Do Foundations you'll find these basics and you'll learn the underlying philosophy that sets Lee's intercepting fist method apart. And you'll learn the importance and necessity of JKD's integration of the ready position, footwork and striking. To not understand this critical principle at the heart of JKD is to not understand JKD. Each aspect both relies on and supports the other. The ready position is ready to both hit and move; the unique footwork is designed to effortlessly transport the ready position without disrupting it. And JKD's power-side forward straight hits fire without telegraphing or disrupting the ready position/footwork connection while attacking the enemy's weakest targets. Literally everything else in the system is in orbit around this technical/tactical integrative foundation and once you get it, defending yourself will be much, much easier. While the ebook version of Foundations has links to short videos to explain the techniques, this, the hard copy, includes dozens of photos not in the ebook version to bring the material to life. Also covered are two critically important aspects of self-defense left out of most volumes: pre-fight and post-fight management. Every serious self-defense student must study deescalation tactics as well as the art of fighting without fighting - that is, the ability to win the fight by recognizing the behaviors that trigger violence in the first place. Learning how not to be in the fight is as important, and maybe more so, than mastering the fighting techniques themselves. And you'll also learn what to do AFTER the fight too. Certain pre and post-fight actions can get you thrown in jail. Think about it. It doesn't do you any good to defeat one knucklehead and then end up in a cell with ten more like him...or go bankrupt defending yourself legally for your actions. Many people are sitting in jail cells, their lives ruined, because they got into a fight and thought their only enemy was the other guy(s) and weren't trained to think about the legal ramifications of their actions and words. So, if you're serious about truly learning a real-world self-defense system, Jeet Kune Do Foundations is for you.

Book Synopsis Martial Arts Studies by : Paul Bowman
Download or read book Martial Arts Studies written by Paul Bowman and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-04-09 with total page 205 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The phrase “martial arts studies” is increasingly circulating as a term to describe a new field of interest. But many academic fields including history, philosophy, anthropology, and Area studies already engage with martial arts in their own particular way. Therefore, is there really such a thing as a unique field of martial arts studies? Martial Arts Studies is the first book to engage directly with these questions. It assesses the multiplicity and heterogeneity of possible approaches to martial arts studies, exploring orientations and limitations of existing approaches. It makes a case for constructing the field of martial arts studies in terms of key coordinates from post-structuralism, cultural studies, media studies, and post-colonialism. By using these anti-disciplinary approaches to disrupt the approaches of other disciplines, Martial Arts Studies proposes a field that both emerges out of and differs from its many disciplinary locations.
