Book Description
Learn how to target the weaknesses of an attacker and effectively exploit them in order to defend yourself! The 36 Deadly Bubishi Points explains the pressure point techniques found in the Bubishi, the ancient "Bible of Karate," and how recognizing them allows you to defend yourself against such attacks. This book closely examines these vital points and the science behind them, and the author fills a gap in general understanding of how the 36 vital points found in the Bubishi can be targeted using pressure point fighting techniques. While much has been written about the vital points and their medicinal importance, thanks to the popularity of practices such as acupuncture, martial research on the subject has been lacking. Cardwell discusses the vital points from the perspective of an experienced martial artist--including how the body's vital points are related to the 8 extraordinary vessels and 12 meridians which circulate energy throughout the body. Through detailed step-by-step instructions and over 96 photographs and illustrations, The 36 Deadly Bubishi Points shows how this knowledge can be employed in self-defense.

Book Description
“This Book introduces martial artists to the most effective and commonly used pressure points”. R. Barry Harmon, License Acupuncturist, 9th Dahn Black Belt in the World Kuk Sool Association Any mistakes in the research or information in this book is the total and complete responsibility of the writer. In no way should any contributors be held responsible for the writer’s opinions or mistakes. This book is meant to help martial artists understand the power, use, and effectiveness of using pressure points for striking and grabbing purposes. This book will cover the most effective, the most common, and the most practical pressure points in martial arts; therefore, I will not cover every single pressure point that is used in martial art, acupuncture or healing. It will also include points or areas that are not regular pressure points but specific common areas that are used for martial art striking or grabbing. I will not be discussing the anatomical or energetic effects of each point when struck but the effects of the strike on the pressure point. In other words, I explain what may happen to the individual when a particular pressure point is hit. It was a very difficult decision to choose how much information to place in this book. The goal of this book is to include enough information to help the reader understand the pressure points and their possibilities. I have tried to avoid overwhelming the reader with more information than most martial artists are interested in studying. That said, I decided to include a little more information than most might be interested in concerning the theories of Ki, Um (Yin) -Yang, Five Elements, Channel theory, and pressure points. This information is specifically included for those martial artists that are interested in a more in-depth study.

Book Description
Self-Defense Nerve Centers and Pressure Points is a practical guide to the most effective weaponless self-defense using the least possible force and selecting the lowest-risk-of-injury body targets. Addressing himself to the individual who has basic or moderate skill, Mr. Tegner explains how and why vulnerable body areas can be used for street defense. He discusses the importance of understanding the possible and probable effects of hitting at various body areas. He introduces modern knowledge and a modern vocabulary to a subject which has been obscured by myth and legend. He evaluates the so-called "deadly" blows and the "secrets" of the fighting arts in terms of acceptable scientific evidence and the reality of human anatomy. He corrects misconceptions about where and how to strike blows for practical self-defense as opposed to point targets used in stylized martial arts and contest matches. Students of any style of any of the martial arts specialties and teachers of self-defense and sport skills will find much valuable source material in this book. Book jacket.

Book Description
The T.A.E. complete package contains photos, graphs and 13 videos that provide a definite answer to many 'unanswered' questions related to real-life self defense (questions such as "What if the attacker is stronger and faster then me? "What if he is trained?" etc.) One of the essential points people usually forget is this: Muscles can be trained for power, strength and endurance, but no one can trained the muscles in 'pressure point pain resistance'! It's as simple as that. These simple yet incredibly powerful methods are based on ancient Chinese arts that deal with pressure point manipulation and striking. This book deals with the basics of quickly detecting these points on the body of the attacker, and how to successfully apply pressure (pinching, rubbing, or pushing) for instant elimination of the attacker's intentions. Like using a stun gun T.A.E methods create very strong, painful sensations in the body of the aggressor, offering the essential self-defense elements of shock and surprise. T.A.E. methods are meant for real fight situations, not for friendly sparring or organized sports, because of the danger of inflicting extreme pain. (though NOT meant for use in combat sports, many expert fighters - especially MMA - successfully "slip in" here in there some of these methods between the rules.) All students are therefore requested to practice with extreme caution. Total beginners will benefit from this book because it will teach you the basics of self-defense that are very often overlooked. T.A.E. can be combined well with learning traditional self-defense methods. Martial arts and even experienced self-defense practitioners can benefit from taking a look at unexplained areas in modern martial arts. Each and every method explained in this book can be easily combined with strikes, kicks, controls or any other kinds of techniques that you already use.

Book Description
A knowledge of the pressure points can be incredibly beneficial to a Krav Maga practitioner for both fighting and healing. An understanding of where the body is most susceptible to pain can give your techniques-be the holds, chokes, or strikes-an added impact. In addition, pressure point attacks impair the ability of your opponent and so give you a strong advantage. A knowledge of pressure points can also allow you to take care of your own injuries and the injuries of the people you train with. Familiarity and experience with these healing practices will make you a more valuable member of your dojo and a more fearsome opponent. This book will be talking about pressure points in Krav Maga and their applications in both healing and self-defense. In the later part of this book, we shall discuss about the types of pressure points in the body.
