karatekid1975 Posted October 5, 2002 Posted October 5, 2002 Patrick, You put on there: "Tang Soo Do by Kang Uk Lee - Recommended by karatekid1975" Eventhough I have that book and it is good, I recommended Authentic Tang Soo Do by C.S.

amp Posted October 5, 2002 Posted October 5, 2002 "Aikido Exercises for Teaching and Training" by C.M. Shifflett:: If you're just starting out in Aikido, this book will help you get right into it fast. It's absolutely great. No Aikido student should train without it. "Hapkido: Traditions, Philoisophy, Technique" by Marc Tedeschi: This book is one of the best books on any martial art, ever. It's so comprehensive. Expensive but worth it. "Aikido for Life" by Gaku Homma: This was the first book I read on Aikido. I knocked it out in a few hours. It's a very good introduction to AIkido. "Tao of Jeet Kune Do" by Bruce Lee: It's a very informative book, although probably better if supplemented with training. I read it before I ever set foot in a Dojo/Dojang.[/b] Know thyself.
