This review is from: Martial Arts Training in Japan: A Guide to the Source (Paperback)

The martial arts in the United States have become very popular and many of those who are training in the numerous systems often desire to train in Japan. This is a well-written highly informative text explains in detail what to expect if you decide to travel to Japan to train in a martial art.

The author is a serious student of several martial arts and covers the following material in this book: Training in Karate-Do, Judo, Kendo, Kyudo, Aikido, Naginatado, Jodo, Iado, and Ninjutsu. This text also includes detail information on the Samurai, the dojo, what testing for rank involves, and four philosophical worlds of Budo.

In conclusion, this is a must book for anyone who is considering traveling to Japan to train in a martial art. This book has addresses and phone numbers of numerous martial art schools and associations in Japan to contact, depending on your specific interest.

Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Karate Combatives Official Manual--Bushi Satori Ryu)
