All students of jiu-jitsu benefit from this step-by-step textbook, which takes them from the white belt right up to the ultimate, coveted goal of black belt. The comprehensive method assembled here by the well-regarded Gracie family lets fighters know exactly what they need to learn, when and why they need to learn it, and what they can do to progress more quickly. How and how often to train, pacing, training objectives, and how to measure success are all addressed according to the different goals students might have, from the casual practitioner to the self-defense student to the competitor bent on going pro. The plan detailed in the text can be customized to fit the trainee's body type and strengths. Instructors of jiu-jitsu will also find the manual helpful to their teaching, as it provides advice on program management, student evaluation, the selection of techniques for lessons, and recognizing a prodigy.

A Path to Black Belt provides new insights into the methods used in martial arts training. Both Eastern and Western perspectives are used to explain how the historical training methods worked together to create the complete martial artist. What creates an effective martial artist? The raw material matters, but what about the training? To be an effective martial artist you have to understand the training. If you knew the most efficient ways to train, wouldn't you choose those for your martial regimen? Unfortunately, much of the historical training knowledge gained through centuries of martial development has been misplaced. The training map has been distorted, so that the current training directions can often create more problems than they solve. How do you plot the right course? The author answers this question and more by taking you step by step through the historical training methods. Each method's place in an overall training regimen is explained from Eastern and Western perspectives. How and why you train is just as important as what you train.

I have just woken up with last night's half-eaten cheese and ham baguette stuck to my face. Pushing myself up from the sofa, I am greeted with my Gi being thrown at me. "# It's 5.45 am get up!" Hungover and with a broken big toe I will be expected to complete a six-mile beach run in fifteen minutes as part of my grading. Matt Stait author of the best-selling book Modern samurai tells of his journey from a sickly bullied kid to a multiple black belt, world champion gold silver and bronze medallist, bouncer, bodyguard, security trainer and multiple hall of fame instructor. Many years ago, I was told by one of my instructors that the road to black belt is like climbing a mountain. There are many paths that lead to the summit, and each one is different. While on the journey it is your responsibility to help others on the path. Those nearer the summit will reach back to offer support and guidance, those below will reach upwards for that help. We are not alone on this journey and we could not walk it without the help of others. We must respect everyone's individual pathway, as without them we could not grow.As the years have gone by, I have seen the truth in this. The students need each other, the instructor needs the student. The instructor needs to remain a student. It is a circle, and each time the summit appears as the clouds break, tantalizing close, yet just out of reach, we realise there is always more to learn. Each peak opens out to a new vista where more summits rise into a new horizon. There is a wonderful saying that goes.Sometimes a teacher, always a student.This is my journey.I wanted to write this book for a long time as my story is an eclectic mix of styles and systems, with many interesting characters along the way. Never a straight road which I suspect this mirrors the journey of others. Martial arts to me is a passion and hopefully will remain so for the rest of my life. I have been doing it so long it is hard for me to picture a life without it.

As two young students begin their journey to become Black Belts, invaders arrive and forbid the practice of all martial arts! From the distant past comes a story about an old master, and the indomitable spirit he shares with two young students. This comic book shares the story of two students on their journey to become a Black Belt and the lessons they learn on that path. In addition to the story, the book includes bonus materials: a Taekwondo vocabulary sheet, and a list of the Taekwondo belts, forms and their symbolism.The word Taekwondo comes from three words which mean to kick with the foot, to punch with the fist, and follow a way of discipline. When you learn Taekwondo you go through a series of belts, starting with white, advancing through the color belts of yellow, green, blue, red on your way to becoming a Black Belt.With each belt you will learn a new form or poomse. Each poomse is a physical vocabulary of stances, blocks, kicks and punches used in Taekwondo. Each poomse has a name such as "Taeguk O Jang" and a symbol such as Air or Water. These symbols share with us key elements of life and character that we should always be mindful of.As you progress through the belts you learn increasingly challenging physical skills, and valuable life skills that apply to all areas of your life. The discipline of Taekwondo will greatly enhance not only your health but also your character and your ability to be successful in life.
