'An excellent training manual, concise and practical. I recommend it for all taekwon do practitioners.'-Raymond McCallum, four-time U.S. Karate Champion, number-one rated light-heavy full-contact champion.

'We've been needing a book like this for a long time, and I can think of no one better qualified to compile such a work.'-Tim Kirby, 1981 Texas and Oklahoma State Champion in forms and in fighting.

'Mr. Yates' forms book will be an invaluable tool for instructor and student alike. I know I'm going to make it a required text for my classes.'-Bryan Robbins, Professor of Physical Education, SMU, former U.S.A. Olympic coach.
