Good
Bought this series for my wife. Very valuable information
excellent techniques
I compete. It's fun. However, self defense is more important. Unfortunately, I agree with the idea that BJJ is being watered down due to the sport aspect. Watching this video has reviewed many of the self defense concepts I was shown but forgot. I love it.
debbie knows her stuff
The instruction is clear and applicable. I hope she releases more content related to self defense strategies.
Great self defense course for ladies and smaller fellas
Excellent material.
I Purchased this tutorial to learn bjj that applicable for Women. I feel that every bjj Practitioner should train bjj for all field , Sport / Self defense . There's lots of techniques shown from the standing position and very few on the Ground. I enjoyed the wrist grab defense and the mount escapes.
I started training BJJ last year and quickly saw my confidence grow from learning how to defend myself. I wanted my wife to experience the same thing so I purchased this course and WOW! My wife and I are learning new techniques together and it's nice to know she will be able to defend herself if, God forbid, she's ever in a dangerous situation. I definitely recommend getting this for your mom, aunt, wife, daughter, and every other woman in your life!
The material is well thought trough, including hairpulling etc. I studied this instructional in detail and taught a womens self defens-class of friends and it was a great material to present.
I bought this for my two daughters who are both Asian. Because of the Asian hate today, I wanted something that would work fast, be effective and simple, Deborah Gracie’s video was that. Deborah covers situational awareness and the main defenses to most attacks on the street. I highly recommend this for anyone who is looking to protect themselves against sudden violence of any kind. This is a no nonsense practical guide to getting out of an attack and turning the tables. Also, Deborah is extremely polite and her genuine kindness as a person shines through. Highly recommended!
This dvd is great for all levels to remember the fundamentals about staying safe. It goes over many of the moves listed in the self defense Gracie Jiujitsu curriculum. The details in explanation are there and are applicable to someone smaller since these techniques are based on the premise of leverage as opposed to strength. She reinforces the sweet spot how to perform each techniques effortless and confidently, along with variations to consider in each situation. More importantly she explains how to approach someone trying to assault you in terms of body and verbal language. Professor Gracie is an excellent instructor along with her father, and hope to pick up more titles in the future.
