Tang Soo Tao: The Living Buddha in Martial Virtue is a thorough, comprehensive and integrated guide to Martial Arts; the student syllabus, technique, training and belt grading of the Tang Soo Tao style; and the autobiography of Master Robert Caputo. Before starting his Martial Arts school in Darwin, Australia in 1974, Master Caputo did extensive training in Tang Soo Do, Goju and Aikido, Nei Gong, Kick Boxing and Penak Silat; as well as mastering acupuncture and oriental medicine. After meeting Venerable Zasep Tulku Rinpoche in 1976, he subsequently travelled to India to study Tibetan Buddhism. There he met with HH Dalai Lama and was tutored by HH Ling Rinpoche and HH Trijang Rinpoche, tutors to the HH Dalai Lama. The Living Buddha in Martial Virtue is his account of his quest to rediscover the link between physical Martial Arts and spiritualism in the way that was conceived by warrior Buddhist monk, Bodhidharma, some 1500 years earlier. Sadly, Master Caputo died in a car accident in 1985 but his legacy is a thriving network of Martial Art schools administered by the Tang Soo Tao Federation of Australia. The release of the 50th Anniversary edition of his book honours his lasting legacy. Tang Soo Tao; martial art; martial arts; self defence; black be

In 1789, King Chongjo, ruler of the Yi dynasty, ordered General Yi Duk-moo to compile an official textbook on all martial art forms then present in Korea to preserve them for future generations. The result, the Muye Dobo Tongji, is the only surviving classical text on the Korean arts of war. Based on the earliest known Korean martial arts treatise, the Muye Chebo written in 1599, the Muye Dobo Tongji clearly shows the influence of the neighbouring Japanese and Chinese armies. Through hundreds of wars and invasions, Korean soldiers adapted battlefield skills and tactics from their enemies, creating a unique system of their own. Organised into 24 distinct disciplines comprised of empty hand fighting, weaponry and horsemanship, this book is an accurate historical snapshot of the warrior arts of the hermit kingdom in the late 18th century. The release of 'The Comprehensive Illustrated Manual of Martial Arts of Ancient Korea' marks the first time this volume is available in English. Carefully translated from the original text and illustrated with reproductions of ancient woodblock carvings, this book provides fascinating insights into Korea's martial arts legacy.

In his loft in New york City's Greenwich Village, Sifu Shi Yan Ming trains men and women of all ages, body types and backgrounds in the fundamentals of kung fu. A 34th generation Shaolin Warrior monk from China's Shaolin Temple—the birthplace of Chan Buddhism and the mecca of all martial arts—Yan Ming teaches the students at his USA Shaolin Temple that there is no better workout program than his brand of kung fu for getting the body and mind into warrior condition. Lavishly illustrated with hundreds of four-color photographs, the warrior workout, distills a lifetime of Shaolin training and wisdom into a 28-day workout. The Shaolin Workout is a complete-unto-itself program of both fitness and spiritual lessons can be applied to every aspect of one's life: work, relationships, family. Kung fu gives a superb aerobic workout at the same time that it dramatically increases flexibility, power, and speed. The ultimate promise of the book is this: stick to the plan for 28 days—for as little as 15 minutes a day—to be transformed inside and out. And the enormous sense of accomplishment that results will radiate through your life, allowing you to tackle the world with a warrior's confidence, calm, and poise.
