Special Forces Combatives DVD Set
A short while ago I mentioned I was reviewing another self defense DVD set that I felt had some promise. After watching the six DVD set a couple of times I really like what I see. The techniques are simple and very effective. The author has a good sense of the impact of the adrenal rush and teaches only techniques that use gross motor skills. In an earlier newsletter I talked about his take on the ABC's of self defense. He calls them "Man Stoppers" because they will take someone out of the fight regardless of pain threshold, whether he is on drugs, alcohol or crazed. They are 'A' cutting off the airway. If you can cut off your attackers air supply he will lose consciousness within moments, allowing you to leave the scene or get help. 'B' stands for 'Blood Supply'. Techniques that will cut off the blood supply to the brain will cause an attacker to lose consciousness very quickly, within seconds. The 'C' stands for Consciousness. I quick knockout will end the fight or attack regardless of his mental condition, ferocity, or intention. He teaches a multitude of simple knockouts, many of them from the stand up grappling positions which is very common in real street self defense. An entire DVD is dedicated to these 'Man Stoppers' alone. Another DVD is focused on what he terms 'Disablers & Manipulators'. These are techniques which are used to set up the Man Stoppers when they may not be immediately available. He also covers defenses from a number of different punching, kicking, locks, grabs, chokes and strangles. I particularly enjoyed his 'Rapid Takedowns' DVD. As I have mentioned in a number of newsletters I am not a big fan of using throws on the street. But I will say there are a couple of takedowns I really like in this set that we will be practicing in my own school. I like the way they are presented from the stand up grappling position. All in all I think this DVD set is worth investing in if you are serious about learning the best of self defense.
