5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent way to reality check your fighting system, 2 Feb 2001
By A Customer
Excellent way to test your fighting system. It provides gradual intensity from light restricted sparring ,specilized one shot training right up to all out,in yer face fighting.If you follow Geoff's method you will take yourself to the limit you think you can go to and discover that you can go futher than you thought. Buy it you will not be sorry.

4.0 out of 5 stars Reality in the Dojo, 8 Nov 2007
The World of Martial arts/Combat sports can only benefit from the publication of this book.A small book exploring a big concept,which Style/System is best.In isolation each method is no better or worse than the others,but as this book demonstrates they are part of a much greater whole.
The relevant information is contained in the last third of the book and reveals training methods will open your eyes to the reality of Real combat training.I have trained using several of these Concepts for a number of years and can honestly say that they are effective and efficient.
If you want to improve your Game then buy this book.
Why only four stars?A lot more information could have been given on technique,i.e.what works best against one style and not another.I would love to read Geoff,s opinions.Overall,a good buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Pure Quality for all martial artists!!, 30 Dec 1998
By A Customer
This review is from: Animal Day : Pressure Testing the Martial Arts (Paperback)
This book makes people currently believing that the training done in the standard dojo is sufficient to be able to protect yourself on the street. Don't believe the hype from instructors if they pile you with the same rubbish. Learn from Geoff Thompson. The book helps you to feel how your own fear can be the source of your defeat in the street. It makes you aware of the various forms that it appears and how to deal with it. Starting with simple exercises to full contact sparing so you are able to feel the inner demon we all have and how to accept it and make it a positive part of our life and training.!! TOP CLASS!!
