Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Predecessor of Judo and precursor of today's ultimate fighting styles, Jujitsu is a martial art developed by the elite samurai class during Japan's feudal days. For centuries, this method of unarmed self-defense proved so successful in combat that it was kept secret and taught to a select few. Based on the author's study with instructors of the Tokyo police department, this book features the traditional techniques of Jujitsu, also known as Ju-Jutsu. Chapter by chapter, it addresses and demonstrates Kaisho Goshin Budo Taiho Jitsu Ryu (Tokyo police/self defense/martial way/body techniques). Specific techniques covered include the use of hands, throwing an opponent, attacking vital points with strikes and kicks and the use of weapons such as the staff.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book could save your life: Protect yourself from violence and learn survival skills for dangerous situations with this essential guide from a former military intelligence officer. In a civilized society, violence is rarely the answer. But when it is, it's the only answer. The sound of breaking glass downstairs in the middle of the night. The words, "Move and you die." The hands on your child, or the knife to your throat. In this essential book, self-protection expert and former military intelligence officer Tim Larkin changes the way we think about violence in order to save our lives. By deconstructing our assumptions about violence -- its morality, its function in modern society, how it actually works -- Larkin unlocks the shackles of our own taboos and arms us with what we need to know to prevent, prepare for, and survive the unthinkable event of life-or-death violence. Through a series of harrowing true-life stories, Larkin demonstrates that violence is a tool equally effective in the hands of the "bad guy" or the "good guy"; that the person who acts first, fastest and with the full force of their body is the one who survives; and that each and every one of us is capable of being that person when our lives are at stake. An indispensable resource, When Violence is the Answer will remain with you long after you've finished reading, as the bedrock of your self-protection skills and knowledge.

His Silat for the Street breaks down fights into various sections to make them more readily understandable. They include the following: * Footwork -- These movement patterns will give you the advantage when you need to attack an opponent. * Entries -- They will enable you to safely and dynamically enter into close quarters, where you can fire your weapons or execute a takedown. * Clinch positions -- These inside control positions will permit you to trap your opponent's arms, neck or body while minimizing your chance of being hit. * Takedowns -- These moves offer a variety of methods for getting an opponent on the ground, all of which are explained in detail. * Ground fighting -- This part of silat enables you to quickly dispatch an opponent if you end up on the ground. * Sarong tactics -- This section demonstrates how you can use a towel or jacket as a makeshift weapon of self-defense.
