### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Amazing Book
  

*by D***S on Reviewed in the United States on March 19, 2009*

I recently received this book and it is the best martial arts book I have ever read.  It had a plethora of pictures and clear writing.  Most importantly it thoroughly covered the basics such as hand position, basic strikes, and basic blocks.  The kata in the end left a little to be desired, but I could find no other flaws in the book.  I would highly recommend this book to anyone and I plan on buying Fumio Demura's other books on weapon fighting now.

    Bo or Staff
  

*by K***G on Reviewed in the United States on September 8, 2009*

My brother has the first (original) publishing of this book.  When we were kids, we self-taught ourselves martial arts weapons.  In the 1970s and 1980s most Karate, Tae Kwon Do schools did not teach weapons unless you reached brown, red, or black belt.  So we bought this book to teach ourselves.  Although I specialized in the nunchuckau, my brother loved the staff.Fumio Demura is a karate legend.  His books are easy to follow and understand.  This is a MUST HAVE book if you are learning the Staff, Kwon, or Bo.  And everyone should learn how to use a staff.... lots of the techiniques can be used whether you have a staff, broom stick, mop, long umbrella, or cane.I bought this book again to teach my daughters.  Get the book over the DVD.  We bought both, because I thought the DVD would help more.  But the DVD doesn't do justice for the student.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Very cool for basic Bo staff moves
  

*by D***N on Reviewed in the United States on May 29, 2022*

The only thing I didn’t like was the overuse of Japanese terms. You had to remember them from previous chapters.
