Book Reviews of Advanced Nunchaku

Book Review: An excellent book for beginners and intermediate students.
Summary: 5 Stars

Even though this volume also shows some very basic Nunchaku techniques; nevertheless, it is strongly recommended to first read and study Demura's first book (Nunchaku: Karate Weapon of Self-Defense)on this weapon. Like many martial artists, for a while many years ago I was fasinated with the Nunchaku. However, in spite of its flashy and sometimes effective techniques, I realized the limitations of this tool for self-defense. This volume covers several different methods to grasp the Nunchaku, various swinging and striking techniques, how to change grips, double flips, combinations and how to use the double Nunchaku. It also has a Nunchaku kata. In conclusion, if you desire to master this weapon, you will want this volume in your personal library. Rating: 5 Stars. Joseph J. Truncale (Author: Tanto-Jutsu, Wakizashi Jutsu, Shotokan Karate Self-Defense Manual, Monadnock Defensive Tactics (MDTS) System, PR-24 Police Baton Advanced Techniques).
