Recenzii

"You don't have to be a drinker to appreciate the wit and wisdom that James Porco put into Bar-Jutsu: The American Art of Bar Fighting. The author hails from a background in Bujinkan ninjutsu, in which he holds a second degree black belt, but his book is all about the Western ways of throwing down." --Black Belt magazine

"Tired of getting your ass kicked in bar fights? Or just curious about how to behave in a hypothetical pub scuffle? The new book Bar-Jutsu: The American Art of Bar Fighting is not a masterpiece, but it does offer some useful tips should you ever find yourself in a Road House-style barroom brawl." --MadeMan.com blog

"…a perfect blend of entertainment and training. The lessons are spot-on, and the images perfectly illustrate the nuances required to make self-defense maneuvers effective. The scenarios are hilarious, and can easily happen to any of us…from an "average Joe" to a professional wrestler, or even to the original wrestling diva!" --Tammy "Sunny" Sytch, the Original Diva and professional wrestling hall of famer
