## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Unbalance to Redirect Aggression
*by J***. on June 18, 2015*

I practiced jujitsu with Professor George Kirby way back in the '70s in Burbank, CA at the Parks and Recreation Dept. While, throughout all these years I have not been able to continue training with him, I have always continued in my respect and admiration of him as sensei and martial artist. I have all of his books and they are all worthwhile. I currently practice Seidokan Aikido and I am taken with how well Professor Kirby's jujitsu meshes with the basic principles of Aikido of blending, leading, and controlling by off-balancing and redirecting uke's energy. The book is very informative and instructional in one of the central skills useful in many martial arts. Close study and imitative practice of the many arts shown would be very rewarding to the serious student.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great reading
*by R***H on March 21, 2016*

It is a great book to brush up on and for those that have never practiced you can use this book to start to learn grad a partner and go slow

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Decent volume with a good treatise on using an attacker's momentum (ki) against him
*by M***S on September 7, 2015*

As it stands, Kirby's volumes on Jujitsu are all worth investigating whether you are just starting out in the "gentle art" or have been a practitioner for awhile simply because each book contains so much information sourced from Kirby's vast knowledge of the subject. However, if there is a "fault" to be found in Kirby's many works it may be the repeated introduction of the "scientific" aspect of jujitsu that seems to be a part of each book. Certainly the concept of x, y, and z axis, first, second, and third class levers; Venn diagrams, as well as the "circle within the triangle" and how they are employed in jujitsu are important, but, as I have noted before in another review, I wonder if the "whys" behind Jujitsu are more important than the "hows". In other words, I think it is more important to the practitioner of jujitsu to know how to apply a hold or lock and that a particular jujitsu move will work rather than why a certain move works. But, and in Kirby's defense, when you hold a high-degree black belt, and have practiced jujitsu for most of your adult life, maybe the "whys" behind the art become more important to you than when you first started as a freshman martial arts student.As far as "Jujitsu Advanced Techniques For Redirecting an Opponents Energy" goes this volume is one of Kirby's better productions because the text offers a range of usable joint locks, holds, throws, and a few figure-four submission-type locks all while attempting to explain how to use an attacker's momentum, circular-type movements, pressure point manipulation, and other techniques to "help the attacker" to defuse his own attack.One other aspect of "Jujitsu Advanced Techniques . . ." that may be valuable to the potential purchaser is simply that when you understand the scientific principles behind jujitsu as presented by Kirby in "Advanced Techniques . . ." you will not have to purchase Kirby's "Advanced Jujitsu . . .The Science Behind the Gentle Art" because Kirby's explanation of the science behind jujitsu is covered very well (maybe not as in-depth, but again, is an expanded explanation of the science behind jujitsu really all that valuable to most?) in "Jujitsu Advanced Techniques . . ." saving the curious customer the cost of Kirby's "Jujitsu . . . The Science Behind the Gentle Art".
