Aikido Self Defense for the Modern Warrior Vol. II

Shuyokan Ryu is a martial art teaching system made up of techniques taken from the traditional martial arts of Yoshinkan Aikido, Kodokan Judo and Jujitsu, and Shotokan Karate Jutsu. Shuyokan Ryu stresses, “self defense”, not fighting. The founder and headmaster, Soke David Dye, has taken these techniques and put them into a practical form of martial art based on his 34 years as a police officer in California and his martial arts training and teaching since 1962. His self-defense system is better known as the “Samurai Cops System of Self-Defense”. This Aikido series is a three volume set coveing the complete style of Shuyokan Ryu Aikido. Volume #1- Techniques of Kotegaeshi (Reverse Hand) Volume #2- Techniques of Shihonage (All Direction Throw) and Irminnage (Entering Throw) Volume #3- Handgun, Knife and Club Disarming Techniques

Living the Martial Way : A Manual for the Way a Modern Warrior Should Think Reviews

Review by S. Peek:

‘Living the Martial Way’ is a valuable book that should be read by serious martial artists.

The author explores a wide range of issues including the mental/’spiritual’ aspects, history, philosophy, strategy/tactics, and many others. This work is particularly valuable to those who do not have the good fortune to have an instructor who is a traditionalist. Those martial artists who have such a teacher have undoubtedly gotten a dose of most of the best of this volume. Those without such a mentor will doubly benefit from Morgan’s instruction.

Here is the breakdown of this book as I see it:

The Good

—————-

1. Lots of interesting history.

2. Excellent material on the ethical principles, loyalty, honor, etc.

3. Philosophical roots of the martial arts.

4. The benefits of training, particularly as it applies to seeking ecellence in other areas of one’s life.

5. A good section on strategy and tactics.

6. Excellent commentary on internal vs. external motivations.

7. A good response to religious based objections to martial arts training.

The Not So Good

——————–

1. Too much discussion of ‘face’ including some rationalization for inappropriate responses to a loss of face.

2. Some discussion of revenge and suicide that should have been treated strictly as historical instead of some weak justification of these as applied to the modern world.

3. The author is rather elitist in his view of warriors being superior to pretty much everyone else on the planet. Although this part included some good observations, it was overdone.

Overall, I would recommend this book for any martial artist. Additionally, I think that a lot of the information would be interesting and valuable even to non ‘warriors’.

Review by K.H.:

This book is a masterpiece. It is a great guide for the martial artist and fills in many gaps in his or her training. For example, Morgan has a chapter on Honor. He is right when he states that we in the martial arts “world” hear the word “honor” often, but, never have its definition articulated to us. He gives a groundwork of tenets (obligation, justice, and courage)and builds a thesis as to why these tenets are important to martial artist of all belt ranks. Even though I think his tenets are incomplete, but neverless insightful; it is a great start, and he is the first to forcefully lay down such a well reasoned view.The book is full of training ideas and incorperating the martial arts into one’s “everyday” life. I often refer to this book when I have not lived up to one of the tenets and strive to be a better martial artist and after reading this book, a better man.
