Official Martial Arts Handbook Description

THE OFFICIAL MARTIAL ARTS HANDBOOK is the only guide to the martial arts authorised and produced by the Martial Arts Commission-the official ruling body in the U.K. Every word and every illustration has been approved by Masters of the Arts.
Not only does the book cover Karate, Kendo, Kung Fu and Judo, but also less common topics such as Aikido, Budo, Hapkido, Hwarang Do, laido, Jiu Jitsu, Kyudo, Shorinji Kempo, Taekwondo, Tang Soo Do and the Thai Martial Arts. In all over 20 Martial Arts are covered so that not only can the complete novice decide which one is for him, but the experienced Martial Artist can learn more about the other disciplines.
For those wishing to pursue the sport a full list of addresses is provided giving clubs, organisations and reputable teachers.
The history of every art is discussed briefly, then the techniques and weapons of each art are explained and illustrated with over 150 superbly accurate line drawings.
The study of these ancient disciplines provides an opportunity for men and women to develop mind and body to a perfect pitch of mental fitness. THE OFFICIAL MARTIAL ARTS HANDBOOK is quite simply the most authoritative, accurate and reliable guide to the sport ever produced.
David Mitchell was chairman of the Welsh Karate Board and the British Karate Control Commission, and a member of the Directing Committee of the European and World Karate Organisations, He is a regular contributor to martial arts magazines and holds a black belt in Karate.*
