“YMAA Publication Center
was established so that
Westerners could access
the profound Oriental
developments in Qi,
Martial Arts, and Spiritual
Cultivation. As one of the pioneers in this exchange, YMAA
will continue to mark the path between East and West. It is our
hope that this path will lead to a new, benevolent society.”
—Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming
YMAA schools turn 30!
Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming established
Yang’s Martial Arts Association
on October 1, 1982. In January of
1984, YMAA Publication Center
was founded. It’s a great feeling to know that after all these years, the goals
of both schools and publishing are being achieved—to help advance the
quality and deep understanding of martial arts.
For publishing, the recruitment of skilled experts in martial arts, selfdefense, qigong, and healing has enriched our list and provided these
authors a global reach to do what they do best—educate and instruct.
For YMAA schools, the continuing success of the YMAA California Retreat
Center has allowed Dr. Yang and his students to immerse themselves in
long-term in-depth training that is being shared through seminars and
the strong relationships between
the many YMAA branch schools
worldwide.

Dynamic Decision-making
Under threat of Violence
By Rory Miller and Lawrence A. Kane
USe Too mUCh ForCe And yoU
Are going To jAiL. USe Too LiTTLe
ForCe And yoU’re in For A worLd
oF hUrT.
In Scaling Force the authors introduce you
to the full range of options, from skillfully
doing nothing to applying deadly force. They
realistically guide you through understanding
the limits of each type of force and explain
when specific levels may be appropriate.
Level 1—Presence. Staving off violence
using body language alone.
Level 2—Voice. Verbally de-escalating
conflict before physical methods become
necessary.
“This has to be the most
oct 12 thorough presentation of
true self-protection out
there. The information
is what anyone serious
about staying safe needs
to know.”
—Iain Abernethy,
6th dan; British Combat
Association Hall of
Fame Member
“One of the best books
I’ve read. The authors
give you their lessons
without requiring you to
pay in blood. Priceless!”
Level 3—Touch. Defusing an impending threat or gaining compliance
via touch.
Level 4—empty-hand restraint. Controlling a threat through pain
or forcing compliance through leverage.
Level 5—Less-Lethal Force. Incapacitating a threat while minimizing
the likelihood of fatality or permanent injury.
Level 6—Lethal Force. Stopping a threat with techniques or implements
likely to cause death or grievous bodily harm.
It is vital to enter this scale at the right level, and to articulate why what you
did was appropriate. If you do not know how to succeed at all six levels,
there are situations in which you will have no appropriate options. More
often than not, that will end badly.

By Lisa B. O’Shea
AnCienT heALing wiSdom

emotionally, and how those imbalances can influence the relationships you
have with others.
• Understand specific health issues that affect women, such as heart and
breast health, PMS and menopause, sex drive, the reproductive system,
autoimmune problems, bone density, aging, and more.
• Learn the Healthy Balance Qigong set, a series of exercises designed noV 12
specifically to correct energy flow problems.
“Lisa is a highly
qualified qigong
instructor. I believe
she will be a pioneer of
modern qigong study
and practice.”

meditation, you can help increase your energy for longevity and constitutional health.

An iSLAnd Torn APArT by wAr
A typhoon brings the renowned karate
master Chojun Miyagi into the life of young
Kenichi Ota, who must prove himself before
he can enter the master’s inner circle. As
once-peaceful Okinawa prepares for war,
master and student venture to China in
search of the deepest meaning of karate.

“Riveting… Very highly
recommended!”
—Lawrence A. Kane,
martial artist, author
After the attack on Pearl Harbor, the tides
of war turn against Japan and an American
invasion fleet approaches Okinawa. Kenichi
is conscripted as a runner for the Japanese
general staff and finds himself in the epicenter of the Battle of Okinawa.
In the aftermath, he must fight again to rebuild the shattered hopes of his
people and to preserve his master’s art of karate.
“Chojun is an
exciting next step in
the evolution of how
karate’s history is told.”
“Goran Powell has taken the lives of two men, Chojun Miyagi and Kenichi
Ota, one real, the other fictitious, and woven them skillfully together through a
landscape of historical fact and literary fiction. Utterly believable, it draws the
reader into an identifiable milieu in which many of the events really took place.

To the martial artist interested in history, Chojun reveals much about the way
of karate.”— Michael Clarke

advanced sequences, part 2
By Nicholas C. Yang
Praise for Advanced
Sequences, Part 1
“Incredible amount of
information. A musthave reference.”
—Alain Burrese, J.D.,
“Highly recommended.”
—Shawn Kovacich,
Si Lu Cha Quan and Si Lu Ben Za are advanced Long
Fist sequences originating from the Cha Quan style.
They have a distinctly different flavor and flow than other advanced sequences and practicing them will help develop a clearer feeling of Cha
Quan and a more well-rounded knowledge of Long Fist. Taught and demonstrated by Nicholas Yang, each form is divided into four sections to help
you learn gradually and proficiently.
Si Lu Cha Quan means “Fourth Way of Cha’s Fist.” It is one of the more
well-known Cha Quan sequences in Long Fist. When practiced with a
proper sense of enemy, root, speed, and power, it is a very effective style for
training higher level techniques in long range fighting.
mar 13
Si Lu Ben Za means “Four Ways of Running and Smashing.” It is considered
one of the most difficult and most advanced sequences created in Long
Fist. Training this sequence patiently and diligently will lead to the highest
level of Long Fist techniques.
Shaolin Long Fist Advanced Sequences challenges you to push your limits
physically and mentally. You are encouraged to use the techniques and concepts learned from this DVD to derive and create techniques effective for
sparring and real-life situations.
Dr. Yang, Jwing-Ming discusses the history of each sequence.

New Book
the raven’s
warrior
a novel
By Vincent Pratchett
If Death takes a man, it is called fate. When
Death leaves a man, it is called destiny.
Wounded in battle (900 ad), a near dead
Celtic warrior is taken by Viken raiders
and sold into a Baghdad slave market. He is
dragged farther east through the desert, into
the ‘Middle Kingdom,’ where he is bought
by a Taoist priest and his beautiful daughter.
Hazy images of silk, herbs, needles, potions,
and steel can only lead to one conclusion: he
has been purchased by a wizard and his witch. Arkthar fears for his soul.
apr 13
Death finds Arkthar’s predicament interesting. “I have heard the delirious
ramblings of countless dying minds. I am amused by yours.”
“Don’t be afraid, I won’t take you now. Your life sentence has just begun.”
Arkthar’s ‘owners’ become his teachers and then his companions. The priest
wizard and his witch daughter heal and teach Arkthar their Eastern ways of
medicine, science, war, and philosophy.
Under the watchful eye of Death this journey unfolds, as a slave becomes a
king, and new roots of Arthurian legend take hold.

Dirty ground
the tricky space
Between sport
and combat
By Kris Wilder and
Lawrence Kane
This book addresses an important
gap that exists in martial arts training.
The gap is the tricky space or the dirty
ground that lives between sport and
combat techniques—when you need
to control a person without severely
injuring him or her.
This dirty ground can reveal itself
when things get out of control; when
friends, family, or good Samaritans
are involved; when certain types of
muggings or robberies get physical.
You must understand that using the Iron Hammer Fist Punch you learned
may 12
in karate class will probably put your uncle in the hospital; make your
friend your enemy for life; or give the mugger, who only wanted your wallet, a chance to sue you for all you’re worth. You’ll probably get thrown in
jail for excessive force, too.
Understanding these three environments is vital. Martial art techniques
must be adapted to best fit the situation you find yourself in.
The authors analyze 30 fundamental strikes, kicks, and locks, and present
12 well-known sport competition forms modified for each of the three vital environments: SPORT, DIRTY GROUND, and COMBAT.
Be smart. Know how to adapt to a situation.

logic of Violence
By Rory Miller
geTTing inSide A VioLenT mind
Rory Miller takes you inside the criminal mind. He explains the various types of predators most often encountered in real-life violent assaults, and how to avoid being
attacked. Be prepared for an eye-opening reality check!
Violence has its own indisputable logic. Criminals resort
to violence because it works, and they avoid violence
when the costs seem too high.
“The Minister of Reality.”
—Kris Wilder, martial
artist, author
“No-nonsense tone,
graphic examples,
brutally honest.”
may 13 —L.A. Kane, martial
artist, author
Miller bridges the gap between the study of traditional self-defense and the
reality of the most common types of violent attacks.
• Learn the difference between various predator types.
• Analyze common assault examples, and learn how to avoid them.
• Understand ‘Emotional Dominance’ and ‘Your Nightmare Opponent’.
• Recognize the glitches in your own thinking.
• Eliminate mental issues that can hinder reaction speed during
a real-life assault.
“One of the rare and
much needed instructors
on the unforgiving world
of violence”
• Recognize the types of violence, and the places where violence occurs
most frequently.
—Iain Abernethy,
6th dan; British Combat
Association Hall of Fame
member
Using a goals-backwards risk management approach, you will learn crime
from the perpetrators point of view—designing real self-defense scenarios.

Black Belt poomsae
original Koryo
and Koryo
By Richard Chun and Doug Cook
According to the World Taekwondo Federation, there are over 90,000,000 taekwondo
black belt practitioners worldwide. Every first
degree black belt student is required to learn
Koryo, but few are familiar with the ancestral
formal exercise, ‘Original Koryo.’
Prearranged forms known as poomsae in taekwondo, or as kata in karate, have represented
the primary method of transmitting martial
arts skills from teacher to student. As an emphasis on sport supplanted fighting preferences in taekwondo’s raison d'être, the Original Koryo was modified in kind, evolving into
today’s well-known Koryo.
Written specifically for black belt students, this book is a scholarly attempt
to capture, transmit, and preserve as an inheritance, the historical treasures
and technical attributes inherent in Original Koryo and Koryo, as well as
the applications less obvious or even secretly encoded in these forms. All jUly 13
for the benefit of those seeking more than triumph in the ring or aerobic
fulfillment from their taekwondo training.
In summary, students will find:
• History and philosophy
• Technical elements for learning the basics
• Detailed instruction for learning Kukki Koryo
• Detailed instruction for learning Original Koryo
Over two hundred photographs, line-of-motion charts, stepping patterns,
and martial applications are provided throughout this in-depth instructional book.

you will need the return/exchange Form enclosed with the package.
• mis-ships and shortages: Please notify us immediately! We will solve the problem.
• lost / late shipments: late shipments are rare, but annoying if they happen. they usually get delivered. notify us if your shipment
is late. Here are some guidelines from our experience:
Domestic: orders shipped via uPs can be easily traced. orders shipped via the Post office are more difficult to trace. Please allow an
extra two weeks for late Post office shipments. they usually get delivered!
International: Please be patient; missing Post office shipments have been known to arrive 3 weeks late! check the shipping chart
for delivery time.

the package. exchanges or refunds will be issued when the product is received in our warehouse. no unauthorized returns will be
