Press Reviews
Shingo Fukushima, respected Kickboxing Historian from Japan, reflects on the book as: "... by far the best instructional book on the subject. The book would be a tremendous help for both the complete novice and seasoned pros alike. It just covers everything from the history to the fundamental techniques, training drills and how to design your own training schedule. What the book sets apart it from the classics from the yesteryear is the use of the high-definition photographs."
Curtis Bush, 5x World Champion and internationally renowned all-time great of the sport, simply calls our publication: "The best book on Full Contact Kickboxing!"
A book like this will help any Instructor or student to change, modify or improve (or add new) training methods, as it doesn’t just cover the fighting aspect, but also the training. The book is laid out nicely, covers a great deal and whether you practice Kickboxing or not, it will enhance your Taekwon-do, as well as offer Taekwon-do (and of course Kickboxing) Instructors, new idea’s and routines for their Dojang or gym.
