Written Summary:
Before
I begin this review, I want to say something right up front. If you are an instructor
in ANY martial art style or system and you are claiming to teach self defense, then
you need to have this video. You owe it to your students and to yourself to implement
the training drills on this video to make you and your students street effective.
Basically,
the material on this tape is a series of variations on a drill that Mr. Blauer calls
the Range Rover. There are four different applications of this drill shown on the
video but it is very clear that a creative person could devise more off of the basic
format that is demonstrated on the tape. The benefits that a person can derive from
this particular training drill is learning true spontaneity and creativity in a fighting
situation, learning to "take what you see", learning one's limitations
(and thus learning where one needs to improve), decreasing telegraphic tendencies,
and at the higher level of the drill, learning to deal with pain management if the
participants elect to "step it up" a little bit. And there are probably
a dozen other things I haven't even thought of yet. This video is incredible if you'll
open your mind to what Mr. Blauer is trying to teach. Of course, while the material
is probably very "instructor" oriented, the individual martial artist with
committed training partners could achieve all the benefits listed above as well,
just from basement or garage type training. Once again, Tony Blauer hits one over
the fence with this video. Recommended for everyone
