My Judo Counters & Combinations—Volume 2 depicts the martial art not only from a competitor's point of view, but also from an instructor's aspect, any martial arts trainer would be mad not to hold a copy. It religiously follows the teachings of the great architect of Judo, ‘Professor Jigoro Kano'—a master who has always tried to expand a Judoka's education and encouraged his students to apply their own minds to inventing new moves and counter moves. In striving to achieve Professor Kano’s aims, one can only begin to understand the true mechanics of the sport of Judo as a self-defense mechanism and, indeed, the creed that underscores this martial art. In this book, the author shares a brief history of Judo and how it has become a way of life for him—a passion that he wishes to share with the people around him. As well, My Judo Counters & Combinations—Volume 2 aims to explain and provide visual examples of Judo Methods which include techniques—from the intermediate methods of foot and leg reaps, foot sweeps to high end hips and major leg throws, most commanly used in MMA today, followed by 4-5 counters and combination for each method. The easy step by step photos will guide you through a world not published before, making it one of the must volumes to have at home or at the do-jo Judo is an acquired art and once one is trained in its mechanics, it will become a lifetime skill that will enrich his or her life. Volume 2 is not a beginner’s training book. It would be best used as a training and education manual designed to compliment one's study of the sport of Judo such as the course of sports coaching specialising in martial arts. Most of the techniques shown can be used in all martial art type sport such as Judo, striking Jujutsu and full submission no rules contest. Volume 2 has all the good methods used in MMA caged fights, once you learn the method countering will never be the same. I personaly have won just about all my MMA events using this manual.

Dr. Moshe Feldenkrais is best known for pioneering the somatic therapy that bears his name. Less well known is that he was also one of the earliest European practitioners of the martial art of judo and wrote a number of influential texts on the subject. Primary among these is Higher Judo, first published in 1952 and now reprinted with a new foreword that offers useful context and elaborates on Feldenkrais’ comprehensive—and still timely—approach to the martial art and to the body. Judo was a natural choice for Feldenkrais’s fascination with body/mind exploration and how to promote optimal functioning through awareness. In Higher Judo, he presents judo as the art of using all parts of the body to promote general health, and as part of the “basic culture of the body.” He reveals judo’s potential for creating a sense of rhythm of movement and improving mental and physical coordination. Higher Judo covers specific movements and positions—the astride position, the six o’clock approach, falling techniques—in both the text and the clear line drawings. Even more importantly, it shows how such groundwork can help practitioners develop their mental and physical awareness to their full potential.

The three body-mind relationship goals that Jigoro Kano advised his judo students to aspire to; namely, to perfect themselves physically, intellectually and morally are all aimed at the same objective - self-improvement. The first goal is perhaps the easiest and the one that many judokas achieve by gaining a dan grade, after a few years’ training, and perhaps by winning a few medals along the way. The next two goals are psychological in nature and usually take longer to attain. The intellectual goal is focused on educating oneself for what one wishes to become in life, whether it be an engineer, a teacher, an accountant or whatever one’s desire. These goals, however, often require much book learning. Because ‘time and tide wait for no man’ one must read, read and read some more in order to expand one’s vocabulary and acquire the necessary knowledge. The third goal is mainly focused on the moral lessons that one should have learnt after completion of the previous two. These teachings should prove useful in helping one to succeed in one’s endeavors and enable one to impart proper moral guidance to others, especially the young when teaching judo.
