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 VOL 01: A WORTHY ADDITION TO A "WISDOM LIBRARY!" The content of Mr. Sander's book has already been described most accurately by other reviewers, the maxims or sayings are first rate, although I would have enjoyed some more background info on the maxims themselves (eg historical precedents, biographical details). A question might arise however - if one already has some experience in the Arts - or other books on quotations - would this make a good purchase? I believe it would, particularly if one is seeking to share some (martial) wisdom with a young loved one or a beginning student. This is where Mr. Sanders shines. His style is simple and direct, yet still contains enough imagery and anecdotes to communicate despite a possible age gap; as a seasoned instructor might address a younger student when seeking to assist them in the formation of judgement, criterion or how they should THINK. His opening lines on the facets of Bushido not being solely for the benefit of the practitioner (but for the rest of society, through the practitioner) are a fine example of this. It is as though Bodhi compiled his most heartfelt lessons from his years of instruction and put them on paper for you...

  Wicked Wisdom: Further Explorations Into the Dark Side
Wicked Wisdom: Further Explorations Into the Dark Side 
Throughout his writing, Dr. Bohdi Sanders has explored the traits which constitute the person of excellence the warrior. He has explored and expanded on the character traits and ideals which make someone a true human being. However, as with his first book in this series, Wicked Wisdom: Explorations Into the Dark Side, his latest book Wicked Wisdom: Further Explorations Into the Dark Side, continues to take a gut wrenching look at the flip side of that issue, and that is the traits of the truly wicked or evil person. Yes, there are people walking the same streets as you who are truly wicked and it would greatly benefit you to know how these people think and how they look at the world with a different set of eyes that you or I. And that is what Wicked Wisdom: Explorations Into the Dark Side and Wicked Wisdom: Further Explorations Into the Dark Side are all about - exploring the mind of the human predator.

In Wicked Wisdom: Further Explorations Into the Dark Side, co-authors Dr. Bohdi Sanders and martial arts expert Shawn Kovacich continue to take you even deeper inside the mind of evil. This book continues that exploration of the dark side of human nature and brings to light even more horrifying insights into the thought processes of those who see you simply as prey and a means to get what they desire. As with the first volume in this series, the principles in Wicked Wisdom: Further Explorations Into the Dark Side are backed by quotes from some of the most treacherously, wicked people the world has ever known, along with the same straight-forward, no-holds-barred writing style for which Sanders is praised for in his acclaimed Warrior Wisdom series. This book, along with the first volume, will open your eyes to the distinct differences in human beings; and once you ve read it, you will never see the world in quite the same way again. Are you ready to continue your exploration the dark side? If so, Wicked Wisdom: Further Explorations Into the Dark Side will take you even deeper into this shadowy land.

BOHDI SANDERS, PH.D.

Bohdi Sanders is a lifelong student of wisdom literature and the martial arts. He has dedicated his life to educating others, both in the classroom and the martial arts arena. During his 20 years as a school teacher and coach, he has always strived to teach his students, not only the core subjects, but also the character traits and virtues which he has discovered in his quest to discover the truth behind the ancient wisdom texts from around the world. His studies led him to explore the wisdom behind natural health, naturopathy, herbs, and the power of the mind to heal the body and make positive changes in one s life. These explorations led to him earning both a doctorate in naturopathy and a doctorate in natural health, while at the same time maintaining his interest in the martial arts and education.

After earning a black belt in Shotokan Karate, he began to search for a deeper meaning behind the martial arts. What he found was the quest for the perfection of character, which Gichin Funakoshi, the father of karate, stated was the ultimate goal of karate. From that point on, he began making connections between the martial arts, the true lifestyle of the warrior, and the wisdom which has been passed down throughout the ages. As owner and operator of his own martial arts dojo, he integrated martial arts instruction with wisdom and character training. In the 25 years since he began his journey, he has been both a student and teacher of multiple styles of martial arts, teaching both young children and adults.

Bohdi Sanders is also a Certified Personal Fitness Trainer, a Certified Specialist in Martial Arts Conditioning, a Certified Reiki Master, and a Certified Master of G-Jo Acupressure. He currently holds a black belt in Shotokan Karate and has studied various other martial arts over the years. He has worked with young people for over 20 years and is endorsed to teach in four different subject areas and has coached martial arts, soccer, football, and softball. He has been published in several magazines and has appeared on national radio shows.

SHAWN KOVACICH

Shawn Kovacich has been a practicing martial artist for over 25 years, and is a high ranking black belt in Karate and Tae Kwon Do. Shawn also holds ranking in the martial arts of Aikido, Hapkido, and Judo.

Shawn is not only a high ranking black belt in Karate and Tae Kwon Do, but he has also worked with a wide variety of mentally unstable and violent individuals as a pyschiatric aide at a state run mental hospital, been a law enforcement officer, provided security for a major casino, worked as a bouncer in various bars, nightclubs, and strip clubs, as well as, providing personal protection services.

It is through these experiences, among others, that Shawn has gained a wealth of insight into the minds of individuals whom are more numerous in our society than you might think. Often times these individuals are in your own family, neighborhoods, work environments, and schools and you are either none the wiser, or worse yet, blinded by their well placed and quite intentional masquerade.

Shawn is the author of the highly acclaimed Achieving Kicking Excellence series of martial arts books, and is currently working on several additional marital arts and self-defense books, as well as several instructional DVD's. Several of these volumes are scheduled to be released in 2009 and 2010.
