Re-Defining Martial Arts for the Future: The Phoenix System

Anthony Manning

0/5 ( ratings)

Re-defining Martial Arts for the Future is a martial art training manual that goes beyond the basic presentation of a martial art to encompass the why and the how of martial art training. The book defines what makes a martial art, martial.
The book focuses on the Phoenix System as an example of a modern eclectic training system that incorporates kickboxing, Thai boxing, boxing, BJJ, wrestling, and MMA into one integrated and complete system that maintains traditional values and concepts relevant today.
The essence of the book is the discussion comparing martial training methods, both modern and traditional, which challenges current main stream thinking and presents a strong position for what a martial art should deliver the practitioner for now and the future. The book includes many common aspects of martial art books including a photo glossary, training programs, technique description, fitness and conditioning, nutrition, and history.
The book presents a martial art system focused on function over form, on benefit rather than entertainment, on application and reaction rather than memory. It presents how to truelly develop a student to be prepared for the chaos of conflict whilst maintaining a strong ethical base for character development and true martial development.
