Sometimes You Learn the Most From A Well Intentioned and Calculated Butt Whoopin' By : Shawn Kovacich As you may and should well know, three of the many tenants of almost any martial art are respect, self-discipline, and self-control.

By : Shawn Kovacich According to some “experts” in the field of self-defense, you should notify your potential attacker that you are in fact trained in the martial arts and that if provoked, you will use that training to defend yourself. Now I consider this advice to be akin to taking a knife and cutting across your own throat to see if it is sharp enough. Sure, you’ll find out the answer to that one, but only once.

This book focuses on the subject of fighting on the ground, which as most of us know, is where the vast majority of fights end up.

If this book could be summed up in one simple all encompassing statement, it would have to be this, “Don’t allow fear to run your life.” Martial Arts Book Review: Ending Violence Quickly by Marc "Animal" MacYoung By : Shawn Kovacich Once again, Marc gives you a no-holds barred look at the reality of fighting and surviving on the street. This book is simply loaded with sound principles and easy to learn techniques for making the most of a bad situation.

Martial Arts Book Review: Krav Maga-How to Defend Yourself Against Armed Assault by Sde-Or & Yanilov By : Shawn Kovacich This book starts out with a basic definition of Krav Maga and the basic principles behind the self-defense system and the techniques in which it encompasses. I am a firm believer in the underlying principles being far more important to a particular technique than the technique itself, and I am glad to see that the authors of this book feel the same way. Throughout the entire book, each section begins with the basic principles on which the techniques are based and how they are to be applied. Martial Arts Book Review: Pool Cues, Beer Bottles, and Baseball Bats by Marc "Animal" MacYoung By : Shawn Kovacich Once again, Marc gives you a no-holds barred look at the reality of fighting and surviving on the street. This book focuses on the most common types of weapons you are likely to encounter during an altercation on the street. For the most part, Marc leaves out the two most common ones, guns and knives. The reason for this is because these two are deserving of book all of their own. One of which I know Marc has addressed, as that particular book is on my “To Do” list.
