bushido_man96 Posted December 10, 2006 Share Posted December 10, 2006 I recommend any of the books by the Gracies for the BJJ/grappling information. Also, check out the Research Library sticky: http://www.karateforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=8082 https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShotokanKid Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I would recommend going to Amazon.com and searching around- I've found some pretty good martial arts stuff there.

HG Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 "Chinese Boxing" by Robert W. Smith. Smith who's a Karate/Judo black belt describes his experiences learning Kung Fu from various Taiwan masters back in the late 50's through the 60's.

bushido_man96 Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 That sounds like it would be a very interesting read. https://www.haysgym.comhttp://www.sunyis.com/https://www.aikidoofnorthwestkansas.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HG Posted December 18, 2006 Share Posted December 18, 2006 Smith has a unique writing style that can take some getting used to but is still a great read. The Taiwan masters (most of which have passed away) are quite opinionated. One of the more interesting accounts Smith recalls is John Bluming trading strikes with Wang Shu-Chin; both are well known in their respective martial art circles.
