No matter what style of martial art you practice, this series of videos will help you develop relentless throwing, takedown, and ground-fighting attacks so you can win big in competition or on the street. This vintage video series was originally released in 1997 and is as relevant today as it was then.
Do you want to learn to throw like the big boys of world-class judo? On tapes 1 and 2 let John Saylor take you step-by-step through everything you need to know to slam your opponent to the ground. You’ll learn to develop a strong throw that your opponent fears and then group a small series of supporting techniques around it. You won’t just have an isolated technique; you’ll have a whole series. With Saylor’s systematic approach you’ll have strong follow-up attacks when your opponent defends your first shot thereby greatly increasing your odds of winning. On tapes 3, 4, 5 and 6 you will learn simple and effective submissions and controls from all ground-fighting positions. You’ll learn to follow up your throws with immediate holds and submissions so fast your opponent won’t know what hit him. You’ll learn what to do when you’re on your back, on all-4’s, or when your opponent is in these positions. And just as in the standing techniques, Saylor will teach you a pivotal technique and help you build a series around it. In the old way of learning a bunch of isolated techniques and putting them together again by some kind of osmosis it would take you 2 lifetimes to get any good. But with Saylor’s systemic approach you’ll make progress faster than you think possible.
