Title: A terrible work that should be retired!!!
Review: This book has an excellent title - makes you think that it is a good reference. Right? Wrong! This book takes "basic" to a new level. I have never seen a reference book as simplistic and amateurish as this. It is obvious in many of the descriptions and pictures that the instructors were making up stuff as they went along. I am a kubodo instructor for a martial arts school in Colorado Springs and I was trying to find something that my students could use as a reference. This was definitely not the book. My white belts in their beginner classes could come up with more professional moves than this. This book was printed in a decade were the hype surrounding martial arts made unscrupulous people "professionals" in an underhanded way to make a quick buck. It is obvious that this is one of those cases.
