Des Marwood Books

This comprehensive introduction to the combat sport describes the main techniques of both the throws and the ground work of judo in over 600 drawings. Dez Marwood has brought together his professional skills as an artist and his decades of extensive judo experience to produce a practical introduction to judo based on 'judographs' or easy-to-follow charts. The main action of the techniques runs through the middle of the diagrams while combinations or counters are shown above or below at appropriate stages. Special points and tips are also given where necessary. Containing virtually all the techniques required to progress from beginner to black belt Decisive Judo is an attractive new type of manual that aims to promote a flowing style of judo.
