Black Belt: Judo Skills and Techniques by Neil Ohlenkamp distils decades of dojo wisdom into a concise martial-arts reference for teens and adults aiming beyond basic belts. Step-by-step photos show grips, throws, pins and submissions so beginners can visualise every move before they step onto the tatami.
This 2006 hardback from New Holland Publishers packs 160 heavily-illustrated pages into a rugged 28 cm landscape format that stays open while you practise. The clean, unmarked interior keeps every frame sharp for quick glance coaching or solo drills at home.
Cover edges carry honest shelf rubs and light scuffs, evidence of a well-loved training companion, but pages remain crisp, tight and free of notes or dog-ears. A single faint margin mark is the only blemish in this smoke-free copy, making it a solid shelf addition for judoka, coaches or self-defence enthusiasts.
Rare in hardcover, this copy delivers Ohlenkamp’s respected progression curriculum without the usual library stamps, ideal for martial-arts collectors and active practitioners alike.
