TORITE NO KATA (English)
Within the sphere of Traditional Kodokan Judo, various self-defense methods and katas were created and practiced by Kodokan Judo students at different times. One of these methods was the Torite No Kata, created in 1924 by a group of Kodokan Judo experts belonging to the metropolitan police force. This study was led by the teacher Yamashita Yoshitsugu (first 10th Dan of Kodokan Judo) with the approval of the teacher Jigoro Kano. Torite No Kata shows great technical refinement and preserves the shinken shobu principles of Traditional Kodokan Judo and ancient Jujutsu. By studying the Torite No Kata carefully we will learn how to perform the atemi correctly, how to defend ourselves against different knife attacks, how to locate vital points, how to perform joint lock techniques on the fingers, wrist, knee, ankle and elbow, and how to learn some forms of renkoho or police driving. It is therefore an extremely useful and effective kata from the perspective of self-defense. Unfortunately, this method has fallen into disuse. Our goal is to teach and spread this kata so that students and teachers from all disciplines can benefit from this formidable method.

JUDO KYOHON (Italiano)
Da quando abbiamo conosciuto diversi anni fa l'esistenza dell'unico libro completo scritto nel corso della vita del Maestro Jigoro Kano, ci siamo sempre chiesti perch矇 non fosse mai stato tradotto in lingue diverse dal giapponese. Un'opera di tale portata cos穫 importante, deve essere mostrata a tutti senza riserve. Il lavoro di Jigoro Kano 癡 della massima importanza per comprendere sia l'evoluzione del Ju Jutsu e le radici del Judo Kodokan, sia lo sviluppo del Budo tanto in Giappone quanto in Occidente. Molto 癡 stato scritto sul pensiero di Kano sopra i suoi ideali, sul suo concetto di arti marziali e dello sport. Esistono numerose pubblicazioni basate su vecchie riviste, documenti, conferenze, ecc. mai ci era stato mostrato il suo capolavoro pubblicato nel settembre 1931 (ristampato nel 1953) con il titolo di "Judo Kyohon". Oggi 癡 difficile, per non dire quasi impossibile, ottenere una copia di quest'opera, le poche che ancora esistono sono generalmente tenute in cattive condizioni ed i loro proprietari logicamente non li mostrano al pubblico. Per quelli di noi che amano il judo, siamo lieti di vedere nello studio di questo lavoro come l'attuale (perlopi繳 sportivo) judo sia lontano dal concetto per il quale fu creato: il judo come forma di Budo, un metodo di autodifesa e sistema di allenamento integrale dell'individuo. La questione 癡 trattata in varie parti di questo libro, ad esempio, nei capitoli dedicati agli Atemi-waza ed ai kata praticamente dimenticati come il Seiryoku zenyo kokumin taiiku e la parte dedicata al Kime Shiki. Qui vi mostriamo quello che 癡 senza dubbio un libro unico, di straordinario valore al servizio di tutti voi. Dedicato a tutti gli appassionati di arti marziali.
Te Hodoki - Jujutsu tradicional
Dentro de la evoluci籀n que han tenido las artes marciales japonesas durante los 繳ltimos siglos, sobreviven t矇cnicas que fueron desarrolladas en el jap籀n feudal para el combate real, para la guerra o para la propia supervivencia, un ejemplo es el Hodoki waza o t矇cnicas de escape o liberaci籀n. El objetivo del Hodoki waza era principalmente liberarse de un agarre que imped穩a empu簽ar el arma para que una vez liberado del agarre se pudiese hacer uso de ella. En la actualidad las t矇cnicas de escape juegan un papel importante en cualquier m矇todo de defensa personal, ya que son el puente de enlace entre la primera reacci籀n del agredido y la posterior secuencia t矇cnica de defensa. Consideramos necesario en cualquier escuela de budo/bujutsu o defensa personal el estudio serio y formal del Hodoki waza y en particular del Te hodoki (escapes de manos). En el presente trabajo desarrollamos principalmente el Te hodoki usado en las antiguas escuelas de Jujutsu y tambi矇n en algunos katas olvidados del Judo tradicional, haciendo un recorrido sobre su historia, sobre los conceptos y principios b獺sicos de aplicaci籀n, sobre anatom穩a y la capacidad funcional de las articulaciones, etc. En el cap穩tulo t矇cnico desarrollamos m獺s de 40 series t矇cnicas ante diversos agarres (agarres directos, invertidos, con dos manos, por detr獺s, a solapas etc).
Shushinho - El nivel superior del Judo
El profesor Jigoro Kano clasific籀 el Judo Kodokan bajo lo que denomin籀 las 3 culturas o niveles del Judo: Shobuho (como arte guerrero y de combate), Rentaiho (como sistema de educaci籀n f穩sica y deportiva) y Shushinho (como m矇todo para el desarrollo moral, intelectual y 矇tico). En esta ocasi籀n, el estudio est獺 dirigido hacia el Shushinho, que seg繳n Jigoro Kano es el nivel m獺s alto del Judo. Es bien conocida la capacidad y profundidad que mostr籀 Kano en sus escritos y documentos donde concluimos que fue un hombre excepcional, un educador adelantado a su 矇poca y un maestro de Bujutsu que ayud籀 incansablemente a preservar las tradiciones al mismo tiempo que adaptaba la metodolog穩a de su escuela a los tiempos modernos. Por lo tanto, el desarrollo moral e intelectual tuvo un papel relevante en la doctrina del fundador del Judo Kodokan. Es por este motivo por el que nos hemos aventurado a recopilar, clasificar, traducir y publicar antiguos escritos de Jigoro Kano que aparecieron principalmente en viejas entrevistas, contribuciones en peri籀dicos y revistas especializadas, en antiguas lecturas del Kodokan, etc. Lo hemos dividido en 7 cap穩tulos ordenados cronol籀gicamente. En todos los cap穩tulos, Kano nos habla sobre la necesidad de usar el tiempo correctamente, de la austeridad en los gastos, nos aconseja sobre la forma ideal del combate, de los sentimientos y de la amistad, de la mejor forma de resolver los conflictos entre las personas, de los valores que deben imperar en cualquier sociedad, de la honestidad, etc. Incluso en algunas ocasiones explica su doctrina en un tono duro, directo y con algunas cr穩ticas a lo que estaba aconteciendo en el judo y en la sociedad de aquella 矇poca. Leyendo y asimilando cada cap穩tulo hace que el lector se traslade a la mente de quien fue un hombre ejemplar, de un visionario que supo extender los beneficios del Judo al Jap籀n de aquella 矇poca y posteriormente al resto del mundo.

Back in the DayMini Edition
Now in a more compact format, Back in the Day is a timeless and nostalgic collection of photographs documenting the skateboarding scene in the 1970s. William Sharp began taking surfing photographs in southern California in the early seventies and was quickly drawn into the nascent skateboard scene, shooting friends emulating surfing moves on pavement. By 1975 he was brought in as a staff photographer for the magazine Skateboard World. During the next five years he documented the meteoric rise of the movement, capturing thousands of photographs along the way. Back in the Day features hundreds of Sharp's astounding photos from this era. The work is priceless, not only for its documentary value, but for the beautiful and poetic images captured and later developed by Sharp himself (many in black and white). Pipes in Arizona, aqueducts in California, pools all over the place, the locales and images must be seen to be believed. Ozzie Ausband signed on as an editor of the project, collecting present day quotes and assisting with the paring down of Sharp's massive photo archive. Sharp's epic photos are populated by the vanguard of the scene such as Tony Alva, Jay Adams, Jerry Valdez, Steve Caballero, and Jay Smith, among many others. This is a must have for fans and collectors of the original large format released in 2017.
Hidden Nature
Reed Environmental Writing Award Finalist, Southern Environmental Law Center, 2021 More than ten thousand known caves lie beneath the state of Tennessee according to the Tennessee Cave Survey, a nonprofit organization that catalogs and maps them. Thousands more riddle surrounding states. In Hidden Nature, Michael Ray Taylor tells the story of this vast underground wilderness. In addition to describing the sheer physical majesty of the region's wild caverns and the concurrent joys and dangers of exploring them, he examines their rich natural history and scientific import, their relationship to clean water and a healthy surface environment, and their uncertain future. As a longtime caver and the author of three popular books related to caving-Cave Passages, Dark Life, and Caves-Taylor enjoys (for a journalist) unusual access to this secretive world. He is personally acquainted with many of the region's most accomplished cave explorers and scientists, and they in turn are familiar with his popular writing on caves in books; in magazines such as Audubon, Outside, and Sports Illustrated; and on websites such as those of the Discovery Channel and the PBS science series Nova. Hidden Nature is structured as a comprehensive work of well-researched fact that reads like a personal narrative of the author's long attraction to these caves and the people who dare enter their hidden chambers.

8 Miles to the PubRambling on from Derby to Malton
A story about three pensioners who finally caught up again after some fifty years and discovered that their curiosity and sense of adventure has not diminished - just got a bit creaky; which is why the walks were kept to a reasonable distance with a pub at the end as a reward - friendship has become more important than distance.With a lead from Wainwright the Fell-Wanderer, and a few beers, it was decided to walk from Derby to Malton via Sheffield - through the places where they now live. This was a journey in a number of stages where individual strengths and weaknesses enlivened an adventure and when curiosity was still allowed to surface unselfconsciously. A relaxing and companionable walk spread over nearly three years taking in cultural attractions and a beer festival (twice). A time when they continued to learn and to conjecture about nature, the weather and why things are built that way.They couldn't decide whether this book was going to be a travelogue, a guide book, tourist information or an advert for the Yorkshire Wolds and North Derbyshire, but it doesn't really matter. It's about the importance of friendship, trust and sharing; perhaps inspiring other old friends to try something similar - it's really worthwhile.

Japanisch-Deutsches W繹rterbuch f羹r Iaido
Die gebr瓣uchlichen Fachvokabeln im Iaido sind sehr speziell. Ihre Bedeutungen f羹r das Training sind in normalen W繹rterb羹chern oder Apps selten oder schwer zu finden. Ich habe die japanischen Iaido-Begriffe deshalb nicht einfach nur 羹bersetzt, sondern nach bestem Wissen erkl瓣rt, damit sie zum Verstehen des Iaido beitragen k繹nnen. Der Inhalt dieses W繹rterbuches spiegelt die Vielf瓣ltigkeit der Iaido-Terminologie in verschiedenen Gebieten wider: Generelles, Fachbegriffe f羹r Pr羹fung oder Wettkampf, technische oder k繹rperliche Bezeichungen, Vokabular des Trainings und vieles mehr. Besonders am Herzen lag mir, die Kata-Namen des ZNKR-Iaido, der Muso Shinden Ryu und die der Muso Jikiden Eishin Ryu, sowie des kumitachi mit ?bersetzungen in dieses Buch mit aufzunehmen. Denn auch auf diesem Gebiet wollte ich mehr Transparenz und Vollst瓣ndigkeit schaffen.

A Mindful Journey
In this riveting and candid memoir, "Vera Jo opens up her world to us in a vulnerable yet captivating way that elicits every thought and emotion from the reader; it's relatable, heart-wrenching, surprising, funny, challenging and encouraging," said Ronald Nored, NBA assistant coach of the Charlotte Hornets. At twenty-two, six thousand miles separated her from her comfort zone, but Vera Jo Bustos signed a contract to play professional basketball in Greece. So, she said goodbye to what she knew and plunged headfirst into the adventure of a lifetime. A Mindful Journey gives the reader a first-hand experience of Greece and its culture. With humility and humor, Vera Jo tells a story of resilience powered by connection to others. She takes us with her as she discovers the honest and sometimes brutal truth of the struggles of learning a foreign language, the obstacles of self-doubt, homesickness and loneliness, and the heartache and heartbreak that accompanies constant defeat.She learns that defeat is not a dead end. It's a detour to what really matters-what's most important in life. She unearths who she truly is, and most important, who she's about to become. The practical training Vera Jo used to hone her mental skills alongside her physical skills and life wisdom are interwoven throughout the pages. With the nuggets shared throughout the book of mental toughness, wisdom, and resilience, the reader is compelled-and challenged-to go on "a mindful journey" of their own.

Endless Perfect Circles
A professional psychologist spent his entire life believing he had no ability or interest in sport. Then, in his forties, he became a champion ultradistance athlete before breaking the world record for the fastest bicycle crossing of Europe.This journey - made entirely alone and without any support crew - went from the northernmost point in the Arctic down to the very southernmost point in Spain. Averaging 377 kilometres each day and with up to 18 hours in the saddle at a time, the total distance of 6367 km was covered in well under 17 days, knocking more than two days off the previous record. It was a journey of ultimate self-reliance. Endless Perfect Circles is not just a tale of sleep deprivation and eating terrible food in supermarket car parks, it is also a celebration of how tough sporting challenges offer ordinary people a path to self-improvement. Weaving his own experiences together with psychological insights, Ian Walker demonstrates the rewards we can all find from setting ourselves difficult personal goals and working out how we will rise to meet these. "When I ride, my mind is both crowded and empty. The practical part of me churns, thinking all the time about navigation, shops, food, weather and lodging, seeking information about those raw essentials of life and planning dozens of contingencies. But when I look back on any given ride, even one lasting many days, I would struggle to tell you a single thought that passed through my head, because the rest of my mind has been liberated. All of life's needs have been simplified by the pure act of riding."

The Mental Training Guide for Elite AthletesTheMental Training Guide for Elite AthletesHow
A Mental Toughness Playbook for Athletes, Parents, and Coaches In sports, and in life, mental toughness matters-even more than raw talent and skill.

The Science of Ju Jitsu and Japanese Combat Tricks
Explore the foundational principles of Ju Jitsu (Jujutsu) with this fascinating historical guide, which enjoyed popularity in the early 1900s when Japanese combat arts were first sweeping the West. Though often published anonymously or under the name of the vendor (like Johnson Smith and Co.), this compact manual delivers a concise and practical course on the methods that astonished Westerners. The book is celebrated for vividly describing how the techniques of Ju Jitsu allowed the smaller Japanese to effectively "take care of" much larger, stronger opponents--a testament to the art's core philosophy of using leverage and an opponent's momentum against them. This classic text focuses on "combat tricks" and practical maneuvers designed for real-world self-defense. Readers will find a mix of grappling and throwing techniques, bridging the gap between older forms of Jujutsu and the nascent techniques of modern Judo. Highlights of the Content: Practical Combat Tricks: Learn specific, effective maneuvers for personal encounter. Leverage-Based Techniques: Instructions on how to utilize an opponent's own size and strength against them. Historical Jiu-Jitsu: Includes classic techniques such as Juji Gatame (cross lock), Kani Basami (crab scissors throw), and various Wrist-Locks (like the "shake-hand trick"). Martial Arts History: A must-have for historians and practitioners interested in the early 20th-century dissemination of Japanese martial arts in Europe and America. This is an essential piece of literature for anyone studying traditional Ju Jitsu, self-defense principles, or the intersection of martial arts and physical science.
