As always straight forward and easy to understand. Each escape is broken down and easy to digest. A great addition to his other instructionals.
Professor Tom DeBlass points out and focus on all crucial stages of any demonstrated submission escape and also shows basic ideas to even prevent tge given submissions. All given techniques does not require extraordinary flexibility. Highly recommend!
Great video. Clear content as always
great
great for beginner through advance practitioners. I've used these escapes as a white belt all the way through brown belt. You can't go wrong from learning from Tom!
Highly recommended. I could already test many of the escapes in this DVD in sparring and they work great.
Great content that works at highest level, escaped a black belt leg locker with the outside heel hook defense he covered
As a white belt, i found this video very helpfull. Thanks !
Great teaching, never kimura Tom
How really likes to escape submission? Being caught in a submission is often a sign that your opponent is a better bjj player. However if you know how to escape a submission you are often able to turn the tide to your favour. The problem is that most instruction on the topic of escaping are not that useful. Tom De Blass on the other hand shows you really effective ways to escape very tough situations. Ever since I have learned his Kimura escape life got a lot easier at the gym.
Tom deblass’ instructional videos have been extremely valuable to me. When I find myself getting stuck in a submission I know exactly what to do to survive and turn the tide. These videos help cement the technique in my mind.
Explanations were short but not too short. Everything was clearly explained and easy to follow. White belt survival training, super useful.
always struggled with triangle defences. i find these defences alot easier than others ive learnt.
This is the 3rd instructional I’ve bought of Toms - all of them seem to get better and better. The explanations always go into great detail of why he does what he does. That helps as much as seeing the move for me - the concept behind and why it works. I really like the leg lock escapes - I have used successfully time and time again after cleaning up some small details that I was missing or forgetting.
very easy to understand for someone new like myself. Definitely recommend.
excellent tips, for different situations
Another great video from Tom Deblass, easy to follow, clear concise and actionable.
Been out of the game for a while and not as young as I used to be (started in my early 20s). Tom shows escapes I can use and rely on powering my way out like I did when I first started.
I love to learn from Mr DEBLASS . His way of explaining is easy to understand.
It is what I focuis on the most. To Escape and reattack.
love this dvd!!!! it has also helped in my offensive approach to submissions.
I liked his mount escape section and his clear explanations.
This is the video I would always come back to my first few months of jiu jitsu. It has really helped, people always tell me how annoying it is to try and catch me in armbars and triangles.
very insightful!
Simple, but very effective escapes
Used some of this myself to get out of some tight spots in competition. It works!
Very well done, very clear to understand, taught in a way anyone can learn
Very good instructional. He develops a sequence of defenses for the most commons submissions. Applying the techniques from this instructional, I can stay alive for longer in the rolls creating opportunities to develop other parts of my game.
Found this instructional really helpful as a beginner, clear explanation of how to get out of a bad position.
This course is great. We spend a lot of time learning submissions, but not enough time learning how to break out of them. Content is clear, well demonstrated, and articulate. Well done.
Great instructional I'm a white belt and have utilized most of the escapes successfully against higher belts very helpful thanks Tom Deblass for a quality step by step system thats easy to follow along and r emember key movements to make it back to a safe position.
Great techniques, explained very well. Highly recommended.
A decent look at the highest percentage escapes from the most common positions.
Tom is truly an incredible coach. With his techniques, as a white belt, I resist against upper belts
Straight forward used it and it was effective. Thank you Professor DeBlass
this dvd is very nice Escapes techniques this instruction that nice well
Tom’s explanations are straight forward and he’s very descriptive, which is better for me as a student. I will definitely be seeking more instruction from Tom.
I have thoroughly enjoyed the techniques I've watched so far from this instructional. It's great to have a simple and straightforward explanation on effective escape techniques!
Great techniques with very detailled explanations. This package is a must to progress !
Tom presents some simple concepts when escaping the most common submissions. Simple. Great for beginners who are trying to have a broad understanding of escaping common submissions.
Very Nice
This has helped me develop so much!
Very helpful techniques to prevent submissions. All around great material.
Comprehensive collection of escapes that will give your defense a boost. The techniques are suitable for everyone, no need to be very flexible etc. Tom is an all round good guy and this is my 3rd video by him. Also follow him on social media ;-) Due to corona restirctions I teach 2 blue belts and a white belt and videos like these are very good to use as an information base and instructional.
The very last technique of Vol. 3 should be titled Anaconda instead of D'Arce.
Good quality content
Always up to learning something new. Enjoyed these lessons!
Professor DeBlass covers the escapes multiple times from different angles. The techniques are broken down into easy to understand steps that anyone can understand and apply. Highly recommend!
If you would like to improve your bjj skills, this might be useful a lot.
Tom Deblass's submission escapes is one of the few DVDs on escapes where the techniques actually work for me. I simply find his teaching to be top of class.
