Beginner Krav Maga: Self Defense Techniques

This is a bad bootleg copy. It was my understanding that bootleg videos are illegal. Why is Amazon allowing and doing the same thing people should be in jail for?My patience with Amazon and bootleg videos is running very thin. I am certain I have spent well over fifty ($50,000 USD) and yet they lost a lens I was forced to $900.00 USD and now yet another atrocity in the growing list of anomalies. This action should be halted immediately. I will be returning this bootleg copy forthwith as I have grown weary of illicit individuals capitalizing on people who are unaware of bootleg videos. (Refer to the attached photos).

They take the time to break it down for at home training. Let me say that this is not the same training you would receive if being taught in a dojo. Make sure you stretch and make sure your GP (DR) is aware if you have any physical conditions

We are disappointed in this set, especially, since it came highly recommended as an Amazon’s Choice. We wanted to learn Krav Maga and exercise while doing it. We bought this set and a couple of others. We thought it would be a how-to introduction for Krav Maga but the instructor was lacking in his presentation and teaching. Not recommended.

Having taken Kempo for years I wanted something new. Unfortunately there are no Krav Maga studios near my location, so with a bit of research these instructional videos seemed the next logical step - all other DVD's are dated as hell. In any case, there are multiple steps and examples for each particular block, strike, etc. with thorough and practical elucidation. I suggest buying the Total Krav Maga video they offer as the DVD's are as good as it gets outside of the dojo - at least that's my next step drawing from the quality of the Beginners DVD.

I ordered this DVD inorder to gain a beginner orientation while taking Krav Maga class instruction at the same time.1. What I have found is that for my beginner purposes what/how he teaches is reasonably consistent with the class room.2. Additionally, the methods taught in this DVD appear to CLOSELY correlate with the methods shown/described within the texts entitled "The Complete Krav Maga," as well as, "Krav Maga for Beginners."3. In mapping Michael Hodge's instructions against said instruction manuals I found that this DVD addresses some of both Level 1 and Level 2, but not all. Meanwhile, I did not expect all of Level 1 and 2 to be covered. For my purposes, I would have been happy if merely some of Level 1 was all that was taught.4. There are a few of his techniques that I could not find in either of the above texts.5. His verbal communication is clear.6. His multi-angle and repetitive movements are well videoed. In many of the techiques he uses a partner for additional visual clarity.Based on my degree of satisfaction with this DVD, I just purchased his other two DVDs: Combatives and the Workout.

ok if you get the dvd for under 10 bucks total including shipping and have zero exp it is a start low budget i think they guys have been best friends since first grade decided to do a video.but i would not recommend

The instructor breaks down the techniques into steps, and vocalizes as he's presents. Recommended

Good demonstrations of martial art techniques that will work if practiced. Very pleased.
