Supplement your martial arts skills with this expert guide to pressure point fighting. Western students of Asian martial arts have long been haunted by the aching suspicion that something is missing from the arts they love and practice wholeheartedly--something intangible, but something so essential that its absence leaves an unbridgeable void. For many, that missing ingredient is a true and thorough knowledge of the body's vital points: what they are, where they are, how to quickly find them under duress, how to use them, constructively or for destruction--and how to recognize them in the kata, hyung, or forms they thought they knew so well. In Pressure Point Fighting, martial arts expert Rick Clark offers a systematic introduction to this knowledge and to the tools needed to ferret out more of this information from forms and techniques already in place--knowledge and tools that are not dependent upon acceptance of the tenets of traditional Chinese medicine, or modern Western medicine, for that matter, but which are based solely on open-minded observation and willingness to try new, or old, approaches to martial arts training.
Every action in Martial Arts and self defense aims at discovering the opponents' weak points, exploiting them and finally disabling him/her without injury or to bring him/her under control. Although our knowledge about the build-up of the human body has multiplied, in many books on the subject of Martial Arts an explanation concerning the effect of various striking and pressure techniques has reduced to mentioning merely "causes pain, paralyzes, death". Explanations are missing or are left in the realm of the esoteric. However it would be appreciated very much, if not simply from a standpoint of personal responsibility, if the followers of Martial Arts delved more into the possible medical outcome of their actions.
An all new, modern looking guide to pressure point fighting--the martial art and self defense technique that allows anyone (regardless of size) to quickly immobilize an attacker by striking at the vulnerable spots on the body.
Ryukyu Kempo is an ancient martial art that evolved in the Old Kingdom: a chain of islands stretching from Kyushu in the north to Taiwan in the south. It is comprised of five primary elements: 1. Kihon (basic techniques); 2. Kata (forms); 3. Kumite (free-fighting); 4. Kyusho-jitsu (pressure points); and 5. Kobudo (weapons). Accordingly, the follower of this way is truly armed at all points. Perhaps more than any other practitioner, George Dillman has systematically deciphered and disseminated this art throughout the world.
Self-Defense Nerve Centers and Pressure Points is a practical guide to the most effective weaponless self-defense using the least possible force and selecting the lowest-risk-of-injury body targets. Addressing himself to the individual who has basic or moderate skill, Mr. Tegner explains how and why vulnerable body areas can be used for street defense. He discusses the importance of understanding the possible and probable effects of hitting at various body areas. He introduces modern knowledge and a modern vocabulary to a subject which has been obscured by myth and legend. He evaluates the so-called "deadly" blows and the "secrets" of the fighting arts in terms of acceptable scientific evidence and the reality of human anatomy. He corrects misconceptions about where and how to strike blows for practical self-defense as opposed to point targets used in stylized martial arts and contest matches. Students of any style of any of the martial arts specialties and teachers of self-defense and sport skills will find much valuable source material in this book. Book jacket.
