Taking the functional, combat-ready movements of his best-selling Mook Jong Slam Set, Joseph Simonet has developed a close-quarter fighting system suitable for anyone interested in street self-defense. He has distilled his decades-long study of the most pre-eminent martial arts, taking what is useful and bulldozing the rest so that there's no filler, no theoretical dojo dancing masquerading as real-world combat.

In The Blade Set, Simonet prepares you for a real knife fight by teaching a short form on the dummy that burns in simultaneous block and attack, moving through your opponent to disrupt his base, lightning-fast slashing attacks, initial stunning strikes to set up a fight-stopping cut and much more.

In The Club Set, Simonet introduces you to a hard-core, street-ready stick fighting system that teaches crippling strikes with both the business end and the handle end; close-range attacks that can lead to applying chokes, locks and takedowns; two-handed stick hits to your opponent's most vital areas; and more.

And in the newest volume, Slam Set Evolutions, Simonet builds on the foundation of technique established in the original Mook Jong Slam Set, teaching an updated form that includes applications such as: a series of counter-grappling techniques designed to demolish a seasoned groundfighter; takedown defenses that will not only stun your opponent, but also set him up for a devastating throw; stand-up defenses against even the strongest punches and kicks; an improved putar kepala throw guaranteed to both disorient and destroy an attacker; and much more.

In this comprehensive four-disc DVD set, Demeere uses focus mitts, Thai pads, and kicking shields of all sizes to show you how to train your partner for anything from a high-powered MMA match to a street fight.

Arguably the most brutal mixed martial art practiced today, catch wrestling's devastating arsenal of strikes, takedowns, throws, flesh-tearing rips and bone-shattering hooks has been copied by many, but mastered by only a few. In this extraordinary video series from Paladin Press, expert catch wrestler Tony Cecchine teaches you catch's most street-worthy techniques, combining hard-core grappling with brutal striking to provide you with a turnkey self-defense system that will make you unbeatable on the street.

In Volume Four: Striking, Cecchine starts by teaching the fundamentals of punching: how to properly roll a fist to minimize or eliminate hand injuries; proper body mechanics to derive maximum power; and the bread-and-butter jab, hook and uppercut. Then he focuses on close-range weapons like the elbow and knee before delving into catch's destructive battery of kicks. Defenses against both punches and kicks are also taught, focusing on head movement, bobbing, weaving, knee blocks and much more. There's more to catch than grappling, and to be effective on the street, you need to have your striking game wired tight; this video will teach you to do that.

Most so-called handgun disarming techniques are more likely to get you killed than bring you home safe. Former police officer and SWAT operator James Miller knows which techniques really work on the street and teaches you what you need to know in this explosive video production from Paladin Press. Rather than demonstrating finesse-filled martial arts moves that only work in the dojo, Miller focuses on quick, easy-to-remember techniques that you'll be able to pull off when you're staring down the muzzle of a gangbanger's 9mm.

Miller begins by teaching you how to disarm your opponent using just a few empty-hand skills that complement each other so that you won't have to learn dozens of different techniques. From there, he integrates weapon skills with the previously taught material, giving you the knowledge you need to beat your opponent to the punch whether you have a knife or a gun. In addition, Miller describes the aftermath of defending yourself against a street assault with a firearm so you'll know exactly what to do when dealing with law enforcement.

If you are a martial artist who wants to take your nunchaku practice to the ultimate level, or if you've ever watched a kung-fu movie where the star whips a pair of nunchaku around almost faster than the eye can follow and asked yourself, "How can I do that?" then this video is for you. Through slow-motion digital photography and multiple camera angles, nunchaku expert Mitch Thomas not only demonstrates some of the most spectacular "chuk" techniques ever caught on video, he also teaches you exactly how to perform each one.

Starting with basic swings, spins and bounces, Thomas takes you through his entire Dynamic Chux system, a fast-moving curriculum of chuk moves designed to add snap, speed and power to your nunchaku practice. You will learn an arsenal of advanced chuk movements, including finger twirls, across-the-hand rolls, behind-the-back passes and some of Thomas' signature techniques such as the Gunslinger and Double Cross Follow. Thomas also shows you how you can adapt these motions to other types of nunchaku, including heavy chux and long-chain chux, and teaches you how to do them simultaneously with a pair of chux.
