### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    The Reality of Combat!
  

*by P***E on Reviewed in the United States on March 27, 2019*

Jim Arvanitis' best work yet! My martial arts library contains all of his books and videos, and cover to cover, Taking it to the Streets stresses the reality of combat in a world where bad people often try to cause physical harm to the good ones. This book is practical street survival for avoiding confrontations, mitigating threats, and countering with brutal efficiency when necessary. For decades, Arvanitis has made simplicity a hallmark of his training and teachings and this book looks at applying those principals, be it in a street brawl, a back alley, or anywhere self defense may save a life in a high risk conflict. From threat assessment to application of combat fundamentals, offensive/defensive techniques to disarming weapons, and so much more, there is no more qualified authority on "the reality of combat"!
