Alfonso Torregrossa’s books are the result of a journey that began in 1975 with the study and practice of martial arts and continued, from 1990 onward, through the teaching and training of students, coaches, instructors, and Masters.
His publications explore disciplines such as Jujutsu, Daitō-ryū Aikijūjutsu, Aikidō, Kyokushinkai Karate, Kapap, and Krav Maga, examining their technical, historical, educational, cultural, and philosophical aspects. His manuals, training programmes, and research works reflect his commitment to preserving and passing on knowledge acquired through decades of practice, study, and interaction with Italian and international Masters.
Alongside his martial arts publications, Alfonso Torregrossa is also the author of books on personal defence, assault prevention, body language, sports education, personal growth, and the dynamics of human relationships. Some of his works address subjects such as emotional manipulation, attraction, emotional control, self-awareness, and the ability to recognise non-verbal behaviour.
His body of work also includes novels, short stories, and poetry collections in which love, desire, loneliness, rebirth, destiny, and inner exploration are deeply intertwined. Even in his fiction, his vision remains closely connected to the values of discipline, courage, sensitivity, and personal transformation.
Each book draws upon more than fifty years of martial arts practice and over thirty-five years of teaching, research, and professional training. His aim is to make knowledge, experience, and reflections accessible to Masters, instructors, practitioners, educators, parents, readers, and enthusiasts.
