Just Ju-Jitsu
Ken Cole

Crowood Press, 2006

In this comprehensive work, the author adopts a strictly non-partisan approach and presents a guide to "a basic syllabus" for ju-jitsu. He does not examine any one particular style or syllabus formulated by a single ju-jitsu association, and has written a book that will benefit all ju-jitsu students, whatever their style. Designed as a reference work for both experienced practitioners and novices alike, the book provides students with a good ...

Robert Ross

Not Avail, 2005

Higher level Ju Jitsu, This book will outsell the five rings.
It is rare in martial arts books to find a text that revolutionizes the world of martial arts. Such books as `The book the five rings' (Musuashi) and `The tao of Jeet Kune Do' (Lee) have both sold millions of copies world wide because they opened up both philosophical and technical aspects of the arts that are normally kept secret in the few top dojos around the world. "The Essentials for the ...

Great great book
This is simply the best grappling/BJJ book I've ever seen. First of all this book is not for begginers, it's for intermediate and above level grapplers. This book isn't an encyclopedia of techniques, it's more like a general strategy guide. The main idea is to open up your mind so you will think of some of your own combinations and variations of moves and setups taught. I'd like to use quote from ...

Good, but I prefer "Small Circle..."
I guess the only reason I didn't rate this book higher is that I owned "Small Circle Jujitsu" for years, and this is kind of an abridged version of that book. This book sort of gets down to bare basics of the Small Circle style, but provides what may be simpler explainations of the small-circle theory. The pictures are of poor quality, as is the print, but the techniques are OK. Once again, ...

Kuntao Jiu-Jitsu: Your Guide to Realistic Self Defense and Street Survival

Marc Bochner

Trafford Publishing, 2006

Great all around
Although I have studied martial arts since being a child, I have never seen a style so practical as this. Many other styles I have studied under have focused on practicing meaningless forms and competing in tournaments that have no application to the real world. This book's focus is on surviving a fight on the street. Although it has copious techniques included, it also gives strategies for ...
