Description

The turtle, traditionally, has been the symbol of longevity and reliability in Eastern thought. Legends of the Turtle in Asia are many: One of the Four Kingdoms of Korea, called Kaya, was founded in 42 A.D. by the legendary King Kim Soo-ro who was believed to have been born from a giant golden turtle egg; Admiral Yi Sun-shin, though overwhelmingly outnumbered, defeated a fleet of enemy ships with his uniquely designed Turtle Boat, called Kobuksun, in 1592. Even today, in Taoist philosophy, there are ten symbols of longevity including the turtle, deer, crane, sun, moon and water.

This theme of longevity has been a guiding principle for Turtle Press. We pride ourselves on producing products that are timeless additions to the martial arts world, a unique blend of tradition and innovation that is our hallmark.

Turtle Press was founded in 1989 with the publication of our first book Teaching: The Way of the Master. At that time, there were no materials designed specifically to educate martial arts instructors on the methods and strategies of teaching. Turned down by all of the major martial arts publishers as being too radical or revealing too much information, this book spawned a revolution in the martial arts world. Prior to 1990 there was nowhere for martial arts instructors to turn for information on teaching. Today there are plentiful resources. Turtle Press is proud to have led the martial arts world in a bold new direction, improving the quality of instruction available to students worldwide. Even today, in its expanded second edition, Teaching Martial Arts is one of our top selling titles, educating a new generation of instructors.
