The Pressure Point Guide for Martial Artists DVD
John Burke sensei says: Sometimes you have to bring something out. Mostly I do seminars and books and DVDs because I want to. I love the subject of bunkai and the practice of Karate. On my travels and through forums, people kept asking for Pressure Point information. I'd direct them to acupuncture books and the DVDs by Russell Stutley sensei. They'd say to me "Simpler, and relevant to what we did today on the course". It happened so many times that I brought out the Pressure Point Guide for Martial Artists. This book has outsold Fortress Storming, which has been out for the last 10 years!
The book is going down a treat, but now people keep asking "when will you do the DVD?" I had no intention of doing a DVD. Russell's DVDs cover it, but still people kept asking.
So here, I've produced a 2-disc set of background, theory, and those all-important pressure points. I do the explaining, and Richard Carrick sensei and Damien Birch sensei get the pain! People have bought multiple copies to see these two big guys getting pain.

Just wanted to say that I've just finished watching the pressure point DVD's and very much enjoyed them. Thank you for putting together such an excellent resource. In a down-to-earth way, I tell you what pressure points are, about meridians, explain how 5-Element theory can be useful to the martial artist, show some combat principles that help to make it all work, and hit my friends for your entertainment. I show you where the points are, with illustrations from Mat Broomfield, just like in the book.
The best MA book I have recently picked up has been "The Martial Artist's Guide to Pressure Points" by John Burke. There is a seperate 2 disc DVD that you can buy that accompanies this as well. I recently attended one of his seminars in Newton Abbot and I found it all to be a very practical approach to pressure points. The book is very simple to follow and provides useful techniques as well as principles.
