Description

Vital Point Strikes: The Art and Science of Striking Vital Targets for Self-defense and Combat Sports by Sang H. Kim is a comprehensive guide to pressure point striking, demystifying the lore of vital points and their applications in self-defence and combat sports. This book synthesises Eastern and Western theories to provide a deep understanding of what makes vital point striking work, including its relationship with pain and fear. You'll learn about 202 vital points for use in fighting, each illustrated on an anatomically correct human model, along with detailed information on techniques such as plexus strikes, stance and footwork. With over thirty years experience in the martial arts and in-depth research, Sang H. Kim has created a complete guide to the art and science of vital point striking, covering topics such as fighting zones, bodily weapons, striking directions and angles, and applications for various combat styles.
