Holly Crap!!! This is one of the best sets I’ve ever seen.

The production quality is excellent. All of the video and audio are a very high standard. There are no clashing colors between the teachers or the background. Very easy to see and hear what is going on. The menus are very easy to navigate, making it simple to find exactly what you are looking for.

Now for what is covered. Let me clear up a big misconception that I had, and am sure others have as well. There is NOT 36 techniques on this set. There are 36 LESSONS. I found out this is a big difference. For example, defending punches from the guard is one lesson, but actually has 4 different techniques covering different options depending on your opponents attack and reactions to your defense. This goes for every other lesson. They all have multiple parts to each lesson, covering different reactions and options.

There are also reflex development drills, and fight simulation drills. The reflex development drill is exactly what it sounds like. Different drills to help you develop you reflexes, timing and technique. The fight simulation drill has a multistage drill where you flow from one position to another, covering only previously learned techniques into a ‘fight sequence’. This is to help you develop the correct reactions to varying situations. Every lesson has a reflex development drill, and all but the first two lessons have fight simulation drills.

Now when you look at the lesson for defending punches from the guard, you have the four different techniques as stated above, plus the reflex development drill, plus the fight simulation drill. Quite a bit of material for one lesson. Now you only have two lessons left on that disc, and another 12 discs to go!

Make sure you get this set.

Gracie Combatives

Infinite Jiu-jitsu 6 DVD set by Carlos Machado is a mind-blowing video set! The title is quite appropriate: Jiu-jitsu has infinite level of complexity, and Carlos is leading you to the next level of the game. It is amazing to see the amount of technical details one usually forgets to consider. “Known” sweeps, submissions,etc., look new from this
higher perspective. The path towards knowledge is definitely an endless tour.

This set is highly recommended for beginners and experienced martial artists.

This set is worth the money, beautiful artwork with the dvds too.
