There he discovered the human face of the Buddha in the friendliness and compassion of everyday people who were quietly and unobtrusively practising ancient eastern traditions of spirit, mind and body, cultivating a connection to the soul of the universe that exists in all of us and giving freely of their knowledge to all who ask so that the healing benefits can be experienced by everyone.

Some time in the 1920s Salmson Creak wrote this instructional manual which reads like a rambling love affair with the art of Jiu-Jitsu. I think that this is something many of us can relate to in this day and age, as we recall the recent golden age of Jiu-Jitsu in the various MMA formats, and the sense among all martial artists that this form of grappling was indeed the last word in fighting, a holy grail of hand-to-hand combat. But Creak is advising the reader to replace his other self defense preferences with jiu-jitsu for the very reasons we once heard offered for using more modern ...

Wrestling legend Bob Roop goes back in time to recount various stories, memories, and historical moments from throughout his wrestling career!

They’re going to show up. If you’ve been teaching self-defense for any length of time, chances are that you’ve already taught a survivor of violence, whether you knew it or not at the time. If you are going to teach for any length of time, meeting a survivor is a ‘when,’ not an ‘if.’ These students present a specific set of challenges, and have specific needs. If they’re handled unconsciously or inexpertly, they can be damaged more easily than most other people.

Many individuals consider purchasing a gun for home protection, yet have no experience with firearms and the information available online seems confusing and often contradictory. This audiobook was written specifically for the novice and is a practical and common sense introduction to selecting your first firearm (handgun or shotgun) and learning how to use it safely and effectively in the absence of formalized training.

Imagine, if you will, the comic-book style Bulldog of Great British stamp. Well, there you have him!
