| fluid jiu jitsu book: Fluid BJJ Karel Pravec, 2016-02-23 Karel is one of my favourite training partners. The insights in his book are excellent to learn many techniques for advanced martial artists.- Georges St. Pierre, 12 time UFC World Champion, one of the greatest MMA fighters of all time & BJJ Black Belt The concept of fighting is at the heart of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. We study the art to learn how to win fights. We even refer to matches in our sport competitions as fights. The methods of learning the art are rugged, and at best transform our bodies into fighting machines.But applying this fight mindset to everyday training can cause us to use methods that destroy training longevity, and ultimately rob us of the ability to practice the art we love.

| fluid jiu jitsu book: Japanese Jiu-jitsu Darrell Max Craig, 2015-02-17 With extensive, step-by-step photographs and instructions, this jiu-jitsu guide is an effective tool for mastering this ancient martial art. The original Japanese martial art developed by the elite samurai class during Japan's feudal era, Jiu-jitsu is the forerunner of Judo and the precursor of today's ultimate fighting styles, such as mixed martial arts (MMA). For centuries, this method of unarmed self-defense proved so successful in combat that it was kept secret and taught only to a select few. Based on the author's study with instructors at the Tokyo police academy, this martial arts book presents all the traditional techniques of Jujitsu, also known as Jiu-jitsu. These techniques teach you valuable restraining methods that force your opponent to submit without abuse by using pressure points. It shows you tips for search and seizure, and the almost extinct art of Hojojutsu--how to tie people up without using any knots. Japanese Jiu-jitsu: Secret Techniques of Self-Defense addresses and demonstrates the full range of Kaisho Goshin Budo Taiho Jitsu Ryu (Tokyo police self-defense). Learn specific techniques such as: The use of hands Throwing an opponent Attacking vital points with strikes and kicks The use of weapons (like the staff). This fascinating Jiujitsu book, designed as a training manual, also serves as a remarkable illustrated guide to the secret art of Japanese samurai self-defense. |

| fluid jiu jitsu book: Seconds Out Alison Dean, 2021-05-25 Kicking ass and taking notes—what it’s like to be a woman in the ring. Alison Dean teaches English literature. She also punches people. Hard. But despite several amateur fights under her belt, she knows she will never be taken as seriously as a male boxer. “You punch like a girl” still isn’t a compliment — women aren’t supposed to choose to participate in violence. Her unique perspective as a 30-something university lecturer turned amateur fighter allows Dean to articulately and with great insight delve into the ways martial arts can change a person’s — and particularly a woman’s — relationship to their body and to the world around them, and at the same time considers the ways in which women might change martial arts. Combining historical research, anecdotal experience, and interviews with coaches and fighters, Seconds Out explores our culture’s relationship with violence, and particularly with violence practiced by women. An important addition to women’s martial arts scholarship, Dean provides personal insight into the radical space women occupy in sport fighting. Seconds Out is a must-read for all fighters looking for mentors in the complicated world of martial arts. —L.A. Jennings, author of Mixed Martial Arts: A History from Ancient Fighting Sports to the UFC Dean brings a fresh new female voice to the topic of combat sports. —Trevor Wittman, renowned MMA trainer, UFC analyst, and founder of ONX Sports Trained in the discipline and art of both fighting and literature, Dean combines both with style. She honors the fighters, writers, and historians who have come before her and definitively ends the idea of women fighters as a novelty. Seconds Out is a must-read for anyone who feels the call of the bell and reverence for a good fight. —Sue Jaye Johnson |

| fluid jiu jitsu book: Idology in Transcultural Perspective Aoyagi Hiroshi, Patrick W. Galbraith, Mateja Kovacic, 2021-12-10 This edited volume expands on what Aoyagi Hiroshi intended in the first decade of the new millennium to establish as a subfield of symbolic anthropology called “idology.” It brings together case studies of popular idolatry in Japan, but goes further to provide a transcultural perspective to guide anthropological investigations in different places and times. In proposing an integrated paradigm for the growing body of literature on idols, the volume redirects recurrent questions to more fundamental points of sociocultural inquiry. Contributions from scholars conducting ethnographic fieldwork, as well as those engaged in theoretical and historical analyses, facilitate comparative reading and critical thought. Exceeding a narrow focus on human idols, the chapters shed new light on virtual idols and YouTubers, cartoon characters and voices, robot idols and cybernetic systems. Science and technology studies thus comes together with theories of animation and anthropological work on life in more-than-human worlds. |

| fluid jiu jitsu book: Feral Eyes Glen Rocky Meyers, 2023-06-20 Feral Eyes Book Two... takes us on a tumultuous ride into the mind of Wendi Feral's brother's misogynistic mindset. Mark Feral is... in one word, 'Sinister!' Many characters are back from the original ‘Feral Eyes’ manuscript, yet this standalone story is an intriguing blend of personalities. After being paroled by San Quentin Prison, Mark Feral, Wendi’s brother, absconded; Mark is hell-bent on punishing his sister. This story is action-packed with diverse counterpunching factions, with toxic aligned relationships that appear to coalesce at times and at other times are at each other’s throats. Like real life, these characters exhibit jealousy, lust, envy, and a smattering of love and passion. In these pages, you will read about the personalities of a few narcissistic psychopaths. These individuals have their agendas and will not let anyone stand in their way. Tell me, does any of us know what the other is thinking and planning? Behind that smile is their ulterior motives; we’re all actors on Earth’s stage. If pushed into a corner, what extremes would you resort to? Survival is instinctual in all living entities Fight, Freeze, or Flight. We come into this world alone and leave it the same way. Be wary. Even the most docile person can be aggressively motivated; we portray what we want others to perceive. Stare into a mirror, slow your breathing meditate, and stay still for 3 minutes. Whom did you see? Peer inside your real spirit; your soul is glaring back at you. We’re many people; whom are you impersonating this evening? This is not a book for you if you’re easily shocked by matters of real life or if you’re a stalwart for the politically correct crowd or prudish; sorry, much of this action narrative is outrageously on slippery slopes.

| fluid jiu jitsu book: Muscle Works Broderick D.V. Chow, 2024-07-15 Men’s fitness as a performance—from nineteenth-century theatrical exhibitions to health and wellness practices today This book recounts the story of fitness culture from its beginnings as spectacles of strongmen, weightlifters, acrobats, and wrestlers to its legitimization in the twentieth-century in the form of competitive sports and health and wellness practices. Broderick D. V. Chow shows how these modes of display contribute to the construction and deconstruction of definitions of masculinity. Attending to its theatrical origins, Chow argues for a more nuanced understanding of fitness culture, one informed by the legacies of self-described Strongest Man in the World Eugen Sandow and the history of fakery in strongman performance; the philosophy of weightlifter George Hackenschmidt and the performances of martial artist Bruce Lee; and the intersections of fatigue, resistance training, and whiteness. Muscle Works: Physical Culture and the Performance of Masculinity moves beyond the gym and across the archive, working out techniques, poses, and performances to consider how, as gendered subjects, we inhabit and make worlds through our bodies. |
| fluid jiu jitsu book: Blood Rush Jan Verplaetse, 2020-03-16 As a young man, Jan Verplaetse saw a hare suspended from a meat hook, skinned and gutted. What struck him so forcefully at the time was not the animal itself, but the blood gently dripping from its mouth. His reaction prompted the start of a quest he undertakes in this book: to investigate our fascination with blood, the most vital of fluids. Blood Rush shows how, throughout history, blood has had the capacity to intoxicate us, to the point that we lose ourselves, whether in violence, through hunting, fighting, or killing, or in the vicarious thrill of watching sporting events, horror films, or video games. Are these feelings physical, or in our imagination? Where does the magic of blood come from?
