baaaaaaddddddddbookkkkkkk
por favor no gaste su dinero en este pesimo y mediocre libro,,lo unico que la mujer y el chino hacen es mostrar su impresionante flexibilidad,pero nada mas,,no aportan tecnicas reales ni explicaciones para llegar a ese estado.

me parece mas bien que los autores lo que quieren es que la gente sepa que ellos tienen una super-flexibilidad impresionante.

este es solamente un librito y nada mas,, muy,,muy pero muy mediocre

Advanced Kicks is a Must Have.......
Advanced Kicks is a must have for any Fan or Student (past,present,or future) of Sifu Cynthia Rothrock.

It has a very good and easy to follow format. However...like ANY instructional book or video...... it is only aguide to actual training with a Qualified instructor. One could get"Hurt" trying to do some of the stretches or kicking drillswithout the proper warmup.

What would make this book complete is if itwere to have a Video package.

I own a copy (*1st printing)of this bookand use it as a reference manual at my Martial Arts Studio.

*A note toCollectors. This book has two printings. Both printings are pretty much thesame. The difference is the "price" on the back cover. ... Read more

Le livre consiste d'articles Wikipedia sur : Avenue Des Stars, Académie D'étude Du Théâtre Chinois, Cynthia Rothrock, Seven Little Fortunes, Golden Harvest, Hung Ga Ban. Non illustré. Mises à jour gratuites en ligne. Extrait : Le cinéma hongkongais est un des quatre courant du cinéma chinois, avec celui de la Chine continentale, de Singapour et de Taiwan. Étant une ancienne colonie britannique, Hong Kong a bénéficié d'une liberté économique et politique que n'avait pas la Chine continentale et Taĩwan. Elle est devenue un centre de production cinématographique pour le monde sinophone, y compris la diaspora, ainsi que pour l'Asie de l'est en général. Pendant des décennies, Hongkong a été le troisième producteur de film après Hollywood et Bollywood. Malgré la crise du milieu des années 1990, et le retour à la souveraineté chinoise en 1997, les films hongkongais ont gardé leur identité et continuent de jouer un rôle important sur la scène du cinéma mondial. En occident, le cinéma hongkongais populaire a toujours été très apprécié et peut être aujourd'hui considéré comme un élément de la culture dominante. Son influence a été considérable, notamment sur les récents films d'action hollywoodiens. Durant la première moitié du siècle, le cinéma de Hong Kong joue un rôle secondaire par rapport à celui du Continent et notamment de la ville de Shanghai, alors capitale du cinéma chinois. Il ne reste que très peu d'œuvre de cette période: un compte de l'historien cinéphile Paul Fonoroff a dénombré 4 films sur le total des 500 produits. Comme dans le reste de la Chine, les premiers films sont étroitement liés à l'opéra chinois qui avait dominé l'art dramatique pendant les siècles. Ainsi, les deux comédies de 1909 Stealing a Roasted Duck et Right a Wrong with Earthenware Dish ad...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Eimi Kurita commence le karaté à l'âge de six ans en voulant imiter son frère Masazaku, de trois ans son aîné.

Elle enchaîne alors les résultats et obtient deux médailles d'or en août 2005 aux championnats panaméricains de karaté juniors organisés en Uruguay : l'une en kata et l'autre pour une épreuve de kumite. En novembre, quelques mois plus tard, elle remporté également deux médailles aux championnats du monde de karaté juniors et cadets 2005 parmi les cadettes, l'une en or et l'autre en argent.

Elle monte sur le podium enveloppée du drapeau américain. ...http://booksllc.net/?l=fr ... Read more

Kapitel: Steven Seagal, Chuck Norris, Hidetaka Nishiyama, Barbara Hambly, Ernest Lieb, Billy Blanks, Cynthia Rothrock, Seinosuke Mitsuya, Bobby Lowe. Aus Wikipedia. Nicht dargestellt. Auszug: Steven F. Seagal (pronounced ; born April 10, 1952) is an American action film actor, producer, writer, martial artist, guitarist, and deputy sheriff. A 7th-dan black belt in aikido, Seagal began his adult life as an aikido instructor in Japan. He became the first foreigner to operate an aikido dojo in Japan. He later moved to the Los Angeles, California, area where he made his film debut in 1988 in Above the Law. Since then, Seagal has become a major action star, mainly due to his films of the 1990s, such as Under Siege (1992) and Under Siege 2 (1995), where he played Navy SEALs counter-terrorist expert Casey Ryback. In total, his movies have earned in excess of $923 million worldwide. Seagal is also a recording artist and guitarist and the founder of Steven Seagal Enterprises. In addition to his professional achievements, he is also known as an environmentalist, an animal rights activist and a supporter of the 14th Dalai Lama Tenzin Gyatso, and the Tibetan independence movement. Seagal was born in Lansing, Michigan, where he lived until he was five years old. His mother, Patricia (1930-2003), was a medical technician, and his father, Samuel Steven Seagal (1928-1991), was a high school math teacher. His mother was Irish American and his father was Jewish. The family relocated to Fullerton, California, where Seagal attended Buena Park High School in Buena Park, California. Seagal initially returned to Taos, New Mexico, with his student-and later a film stuntman-Craig Dunn. There, they opened a dojo, but Seagal spent much of his time pursuing other ventures. Dunn stayed in New Mexico and continued to run the dojo. After another period in Japan, Seagal returned to the U.S. in 1983 with senior student Haruo Matsuoka. They opened an aikido do...http://booksllc.net/?l=de ... Read more
