About
About the Reviewer
Martial Arts Books Reviews is run by Mike Massie, a long-time martial artist, martial arts business author, sometime school owner, and multiple black belt holder.
An avid reader and collector of martial arts books and training videos, Mike started the site because he had several shelves full of martial arts books and videos and decided he’d seen enough bad training videos and read enough bad martial arts books to start a review site.
But, this site isn’t about trashing books, DVDs, and training videos… it’s about letting you know what products are worth your hard-earned money. That’s why we’ve provided a “star rating” system to allow you to chime in and post your own rating and review of every product on the site.
About Our Grading System
5 Stars – Outstanding resource. Doesn’t get much better than this. Get it!
4 Stars – Very good resource. Worth the money, certainly.
3 Stars – Worth your money if you’re really into the topic. Could use some polishing in some areas. Buy it used if you can.
2 Stars – Fairly poor resource. Not worth your hard-earned dough.
1 Star – This sucks. Worse than French-kissing Madeleine Albright. Not that I’d know anything about that, but it does sort of turn my stomach thinking about it. Which is pretty much what happened when I reviewed this resource.
