A punch is far more than just a punch . . . a deeper look will reveal a labyrinth of concealed knowledge, an Aladdins cave of intricacies and a treasure trove of data that will enable the neophyte to punch and the expert to punch better. Hands are the most accessible, effective and natural tool available for use in self defence situations. Geoff Thompsons extensively illustrated manual takes you step by step through all the moves and techniques needed to become competent in the punching arts. These techniques can be used to complement other forms of martial arts, or used alone in close range self defence.
