Martial Arts Abcs: The Martial Arts From A To Z (A Martial Arts Journal Series)

The martial arts are comprised of hundreds of combat systems from a number of different countries. Here's a primer on some terms, techniques, and styles for all students-and even teachers-of the martial arts.For example: A is for AIKIDO, with a description of that art's history and approach. Then there's B for BUDO, C for CHAUN FA, D for DAN-all the way to Z. Each section also has alternative words and terms (A is also for ARNIS and AMERICAN KARATE). The handy journal format allows you to do some research and fill in your own notes and observations. The author is a world-renown instructor and historian on the martial arts. Grandmaster Yates has written almost 20 other books and hundreds of magazine articles. This is a unique book for students wanting to expand their knowledge of the expansive universe of martial arts systems, history and personalities. And it's just plain fun to read.
