Real Kicking
Foreword
For those amongst us who think kicking in the ‘Full Contact
Arena’, or more realistically, ‘The Pavement Arena’, is about
balletic grace and flashy high kicks, this book is not for them.
This book is for the true kicking connoisseur, who wants to
learn practical power kicking, which can effectively be applied
to street survival, without fears of balance loss, slipping, or having
the leg caught in mid-air.
Geoff Thompson, a leading self-protection specialist, has
survived countless violent situations, and has had to use street
proven skills to defend himself on our increasingly violent
streets.
In this concise, professional, and down-to-earth book, Geoff
thoroughly explains how to use your kicks in an effective and
accurate manner in a street confrontation. Very few people I
have met are able to kick as hard and as precisely as Geoff
Thompson, who is undoubtedly one of today’s most respected
Martial Artists.
Anyone interested in the practical aspects of kicking for ‘Real
Self Defence’ will find this book a great asset. Apply the
techniques to your training - for your kicking arsenal will not be
complete without them.
