As I sat down to evaluate this DVD in the Lock On series, I found that I was likely to have a tricky time crafting this evaluation as the essentials of this DVD are accurately the identical as the past two volumes, which in and of by itself is a wonderful detail. For that reason a whole lot of my critique is likely to be a partial repeat of my earlier two testimonials on volumes a single and two in the Lock On collection. So without having further more ado below is my overview on this DVD.

Just one of the initial matters that jumped out at me from the onset when I commenced viewing Alain’s “Lock On” sequence of DVD’s was the straightforward still efficient method that he took in the generation and presentation of this sequence of DVD’s. My preliminary impact was 1 of becoming in an precise seminar surroundings when Alain was educating instead of simply viewing an instructional DVD. You won’t obtain any pointless or ineffective “bells and whistles” with this collection rather what you will locate is fantastic good quality instruction covering a wide array of joint locking methods. This distinct DVD focuses on shoulder locking procedures.

Alain’s potential to instruct you on these very simple, yet powerful shoulder locking procedures is the hallmark of a fantastic instructor and it absolutely exhibits in this collection. Alain’s strategy is clear-cut and straightforward to stick to as he will take you through each individual shoulder lock several situations in buy to educate you how to execute just about every strategy accurately.

I just concluded seeing this extremely very well accomplished tutorial movie that just so transpires to be quantity three in the Lock On: Joint Locking Necessities series by Alain Burrese. Like his two former volumes, Alain goes into terrific depth in displaying you how to utilize various distinctive shoulder locking methods in get to gain control in excess of an opponent.

One product of distinct notice that I identified pretty profound in this unique volume, was Alain’s assertion at the commencing of the movie that he was likely to commit extra time showing you, the scholar, the various shoulder locks and their purposes alternatively than exhibiting the exact system various situations and in slow motion. Alain explained his reasoning powering this by informing the viewer that they could just “rewind” the DVD and play any individual part that they wished to evaluate again, relatively then throwing away valuable recording time explaining the similar procedure more than and around and also demonstrating the very same method in slow movement. As Alain reasoned, this would give you, “far more bang for your buck.”

As I watched Alain in this quantity in the Lock On sequence, I was once again struck by his quite effective and quick to have an understanding of way of educating, the hallmark of an superb teacher and a legitimate martial artist.

A single of the most critical issues that I preferred about not only this volume, but the to start with two volumes as very well, is Alain’s sturdy emphasis on incorporating the joint strategies he demonstrates you with other approaches such as punching, kicking, throwing, etcetera.

Another one particular of the important items that Alain does in this collection of DVD’s is to seriously reveal the finer details of just about every of the procedures that he demonstrates. This is of great value as it is normally the tiny factors that finish up earning or breaking the suitable execution of a particular procedure.

In this article is a listing of the shoulder locks that Alain demonstrates in this DVD:

1. Increasing Shoulder Lock

2. Pulling Shoulder Lock

3. Chicken Wing

4. Variation of the Chicken Wing

5. Bent Arm Shoulder Lock

6. Determine 4 Lock

In addition to displaying you the earlier mentioned stated shoulder locks, Alain also displays you around 35 distinct defenses towards a range of assaults employing the 6 shoulder locks listed earlier mentioned.

This series is with out a doubt just one of the most complete collections of DVD’s to show the finer details of joint strategies in an easy to realize and technically exact way. I would really recommend any and all of the volumes in the Lock On sequence.
