Volume 6 Front Kick by Shawn Kovacich is a very well written book from beginning to end. The diagrams make it easy to follow and understand from beginners all the way to seasoned martial artists. This book breaks down each step into several technical points so that you can easily understand the kick fully and perform it correctly. Each technical point is clearly illustrated by pictures and illustrated foot positions so it's easy to understand by seeing the break down of each technical point of the kick. In closing I would like to say, "Well done Shawn this is one of the best martial art book I have ever read."

Warrior Wisdom Volume Two I throughly enjoyed this book. I am actually posting my review after a second reading of this book. I have Volume One of this series and although it is an enjoyable read, Volume Two is a far superior book. The author draws on a cast array of sources, ranging from Sitting Bull to Funakoshi Sensei to Yoda. His choice of quotes is remarkable and his commentary is extremely thought provoking. The other major strong point of this book is his continued emphasis on training the mind & training the body in a functional manner. I did not notice this same emphasis in Volume One and I hope it is a direction the author continues in with any following volumes. In conclusion the author uses all the various quotes to urge the reader to seek a, "lifestyle of excellence, not complacency."

  The Shield
The Shield 
The Shield utilizes a unique multi-layered design incorporating a combination of several different layers of foam rubber and rubber, all of which consist of various thicknesses and levels of density, in order to more closely simulate the composition and density of the human body, which results in a more realistic feel when struck. As you well know, the human body varies in density and composition from your outer skin, to the underlying muscles and fat followed by bone, your internal organs, and then a repeat of the same content only in reverse order. The Shield uses this same approach in its design with different thicknesses and densities of foam rubber followed by a rubber sheet and then a larger body of foam rubber, which is once again followed by a rubber sheet and then different thicknesses and densities of foam rubber. This is encased in a cloth covering instead of the more traditional vinyl outer covering. Nylon reinforced handles with soft rubber grips and heavy duty stitching are positioned on the sides and back of the shield. The Shield was designed by high ranking Karate and Tae Kwon Do black belt Shawn Kovacich, who is also a two-time Guinness Book of World Records holder for endurance high kicking, and the author of the Achieving Kicking Excellence series.
