Adaptive Judo: Throwing, Grappling and Striking: Goddard Method by James Goddard (1 Review)    Price verified 2 hours ago

You can gain self-confidence and transferable skills for other disciplines such as ball games and dancing (sometimes known as fundamental movement skills). This book is for beginners and experienced judo practitioners [judokas]. Inside this book you will find guidance on: - Strikes and blocks. - Throws. - Kata. - Holding techniques. - Limb locking techniques. - Strangles/chokes. Other books concentrate on the technical side of judo, whereas my book emphasises the pattern/spirit in clear illustrations and easy-to-remember key points, including a variety of applications. Most of this book is suitable for children and adults. Techniques are from the adult judo syllabus. Chapter 6 locking and strangling techniques are not shown in class to children ...

Fishing With Dad: Life Lessons One Cast at a Time by Matt McDonald (1 Review)    Price verified one hour ago

He's quiet. He's stern. He's up at 5:00 AM. He's Dad.From the banks of a pristine creek to the mud at the edge of a murky pond, Dad's life lessons are doled out with every cast of his eight foot Fenwick spinning rod. From the early days of digging worms in the garden to standing side-by-side as grown men in Alaska, fishing adventures define what it means to be a father.Fishing is not always fair, nor is life. From the first fly rod with grandpa to standing in a hospital hallway praying Dad survives, everything you need to know to survive life's trials can be found with a rod and reel in hand. You don't have to be a fisherman to relate. You just have to have father.
