The Enigma by Paul Vunak

[dss103]

Yo after hearing Vunak i realized he's insane! but in an awesome way! What he says actually makes sense! i wanna go train with him right now!!!

[Pankration321]

ha ha  "hes just as fuked as he was 2 seconds ago"

[Godsmasher22]

He was not in the SEALS. He was asked to do trainging with them. that is show them knife stuff. Ballistic stuff.

[Corvetter63]

58 seconds is the best part!!! haha

[rulesofengagement]

i have both studied teh techniques of Paul vunak and Sammy franco

[poohpoohcaca]

Paul is amazing, I've done 7 private lessons with him & 3 with Tom Cruse, incredible fighters, its unbelievable that they're are people who think this stuff doesn't work especially in mma.

[rulesofengagement]

l have enjoy to men with the intensity of no bs streetfighting survival thats PAUL VUNAK AND SAMMY FRANCO

[GJJFan]

What an incredible individual! :-)

[imortalboxer]

i'll never say the biting method doesn't work. but what happens if you bite someone with a disease? like aids for example. something that definitely should be the absolute last resort in a fight. other than that, some good words on the martial arts by mr. vunak. much respect.

[chodykumbra]

If you are in bad enough of a situation to bite someones jugular or face, then bottom line you should be in a life threatening situation. Id rather die 10 years from now, then walk out into the street and die tonight.

[Azzaiel]

hey paul, been a while, ya look good

[Johnwingchun]

Why would you have a stick, then throw the stick away and go to the ground?? wouldn't it be better to beat the crap out of him with your stick?? or run away once he's on the ground. Why do people always go to the ground??? Paul Vunak's great but I don't get why he's saying to do this!!

[Godsmasher22]

I think its about leverage. Raising up to bomb away with the stick creates space that people, even untrained people, can use to buck, or reverse you. It was one of the things the Dog Brothers noticed when their fights hit the ground. The stick wasn't that helpful to either guy.

[DGCFS]

Uncle Vu you are the MAN!!!! I can not wait Till I see and train with you again Sir!! Sorry we had to reschedule but IKE damage my studio. we are going to make it a yearly event!!

[DimebagVision]

He looks different than he did in the 80's lol. In the 80's he looked like a male porn star, now he looks like a regular guy. He's still as lethal as ever

[1ToNJaB]

How come when you let a Man know that you are fully capable of protecting yourself, that same man will want to test you? He becomes obsessed with the idea of defeating you. ?

[banalexistence]

this guy would butcher you and nt blink an eye. pure psychopath, don't believe his philosophy, his mind is on killing efficiently. he craves it.

[blinky777777]

so?????

[CEIclay]

You have know Idea what you are talking about. I have meet and trained with him and he is one of the most kind and spiritual people you will ever meet.

[Azzaiel]

i agree with you

but sifu paul is seriously scary, for what he knows and can do, he is very spiritual, very kind .. kind of a prankster.

but very lethal.

to everyone

take his course, it will help you.

[daltonsbadboy]

I own some of his tapes...I trained with his teacher Dan Inosanto(one of Bruce Lee's top student)..Guru Dan certifified Mr. Vunak in JKD...he has my respect

[wingchunrobi]

What is the name this music???? Please send to me somebody!!

I bought this tape and this is the best Paul Vunak tape.

[chopperdeath]

"Eminence Front" by the Who.

Video good for the ears and eyes.

[Thunderhouse2]

This dude is a genius.

[carcosa]

"In my heart is love and compassion."

And biting.

But no, Paul Vunak is an awesome instructor and from what I hear he can really walk the walk too, not someone I would want to tangle with for damn sure.

[sloppyoscar]

is it just me or does that guy have about the most intense look on his face that you'll ever see on someone? That alone would make most attackers think twice

[darktim99]

paul vunak is the TRUTH. dude is one nicest guys you can meet. this soft talking guy you see IS him. he's like a surf dude almost. really really chilled out and friendly. he IS the saying "talk quietly and carry a BIG stick".

[ThePoorBoy]

I always wondered if when the SEALs recruited him to train the teams the Navy secretely "trailed" him to see him do this stuff on the street. I mean, how else could they know just how good he is?

[KiKassDo]

The way I heard it from an army buddy in special ops is that the SEALs had a bunch of instructors come in, and the testing method was said instructor was attacked by a big mean SEAL and they'd see what's what. Vunak was the only guy who won.

Now that's what I heard, which was way beyond second-hand (17th hand?). Maybe he just performed well under pressure. Either way the SEALs were definitely impressed, and SEALs do things like go get in bar fights, and there's no way they didn't take Vu along.

[ThePoorBoy]

Honestly, that sounds completely plausible to me.

Must have been fun for Paul to sort of have a "free license" to go "bar hopping" with the SEALs!

[Thunderhouse2]

Mhmm, I think that the SEAL's are no slouches, and that if they recognize his performance, that is enough. ;)

[rednatsyb]

tough guy...

[dthelonelyone]

Ahhhhhhh shit it's Vunak...lol. This motheafucka an't no joke...OMG!!!

[wingchunrobi]

What is the name this song??

[wingchunrobi]

What is the name this music? Please send to me somebody!

I think too Paul Vunak the best! :)

[JKD256]

ive studied jeet kune do concepts for years and all i can say is WOW !!!. Sifu Vunaks attributes look better now than when i was watching his street fighting series 10 years ago. Eric/P.A.

[wingchunrobi]

What is the name this song?? Please send to me somebody! I like it.

[TruthWielder]

Man...does he have a school? Does he still teach? Is there any way to contact him?

[ShotokanTanto]

Yes, I believe it's in California. He does a personal seminar program too, that asesses your weaknesses and natural style of fighting and they professionaly video tape your training so you can remember all that you learned.

[nazial]

vunak teach "Kina Mutai" one of the techniques in filipino martial art of Kali.Kina Mutai is the lethal Filipino martial art of Biting, Pinching inside the bicep and inner thighs eye Gouging!. Consider yourself taken down by a big person or a professional Brazilian Jiu-jitsu grappler, locked on the ground, extremely vulnerable position!. kina mutai is use to combat this scenario

[camiguin]

i love paul's videos. has he ever sparred with the dog bros?

[WonderStoned]

He trained the guys who became The Dog Brothers

[toof74]

i'm seeing so much interesting stuff and now i'm a little lost...

i want to practice a fighting style but i don't know witch one.

i went through several years of karaté and tae kwondo and even muay thai but now i want something else.

what do you think is the best between cqc , krav maga and jeet kune do ? i thanks in advance everyones who will reply ! :) (don't reply for bullshit , i want advises from martial artists , not dumb useless comments ! thanks...)

[dutch04]

I say JKD mixed with the Kali is better than most Krav Maga I've seen. Mostly because of the stick training and the flow and movement that comes from that. Not to knock Krav Maga as it is very practical and effective(Isrealis are serious about real world self defense). I just think the Kali/JKD is a much deeper art. IMHO of course.

[JKDdanel]

I would say Jeet Kune Do mate!I've looked long and hard for 5 years and now do Jeet Kune Do.Its part of my life and my life's better for it.

[DreadedGuardian]

For all its benefit and not to say it's not effective, krava maga is still somewhat artsy compared to the others you've mentioned. Jkd can be as well, but it's structure and flowmakes up for it in the hands of an experienced practitioner. It dependson what exactly you're looking for, but if it's reality you want, go with sayoc kali. Many methods are great, but all those most useful for say a life and death situation, have at least some basis in kali.

[wingchunrobi]

What us the music? Please send to me somebody! Vunak is the best! :)

[MoodyGroove]

That's The Who - "Eminence Front". Wow, I feel old! Well, not as old as you, Paul! :)

[scientificfighting]

Sifu Paul Vunak the Greatest JKD Streetfighter !

[orfeopn]

he looks like michael j. fox

[lucky7z]

"if you notice, he's just as fucked as he was 2 seconds ago".....lmao! Paul Vunak is awesome!

[davidreefer]

that's eminence front by the who.

[Rushfan32935]

Is there a certain area of the face that you're supposed to bite? Or do you just bite anywhere? Take a chunk out of his nose. lol.

[sungshin407]

LOL He doesn't blink.

[dpapaioannow]

on some of the ground scenes the opponent could easily eyecauge him with his thumbs if he wanted too or bite his face if it was a real lifethreating situation because his hands where free or maybe thats just the way i see it anyway vunak is cool though but then again your real teacher is your self your "logical"reactions and experience like brad pete said on 12 monkeys "there's no right there's no wrong it's all a matter of opinion"people think and act different we are not cyborgs...i guess:)?

[SHITBAGS69]

Its by a group called 'The Who' and the track is called 'Eminence Front'

[YipManneke]

but everything he says is right

[YipManneke]

he should be an actor like steven seagal he talk just as much

[todei79]

It's like Krav Maga, maybe some Kenpo, Escrima, Kali, and maybe some jiu-jitsu. I like the way he handles the Escrima. I want to learn Escrima very badly. Seems like a cool guy. Nice video

[epoc81]

nice!!!paul vunak very nice warrior!!!

[6458522]

fucking badass WHO tune!

[Skinthinner]

Just found out about this guy in this month's Blackbelt Magizine, and I'm loving everything he's about! =D

[darktim99]

vunak is a fuckin legend. god i'd love to train with this guy. read loads his stuff and watched loads his clips and vids. this guy is the real deal!

[blutobelushi]

he is a cool dude.his tapes are never boring.he is quite skilled.

[Onur922]

I train PFS Germany and its great!!!

[DameonWolfDemon]

Awesome.

[wmpyr]

he has really grown, very impressed and glad he has a warm message.

[skitz1976]

Yes he has. I can tell you from experience that Sifu Paul has mellowed ALOT!!! He really is one of the nicest guys I have met. I was out to train with him in April. Sifu Paul cares alot about his students and there training methods.

If you have not had a chance to train with him I highly recommend it.

[bassivity]

How much it cost you to train with him?

[cf5555]

Vunak is great!  Keep it up dude.

[Bobcat14Ammo]

Surfs-up Paul!

[johnnyblade82]

good clip! lol my dog popped up and started barking when he heard Paul growling :)

[johnnyromance78]

Holy smokes, Vunak on Utube?, this is gonna get ugly.

[ukconcepts]

paul vunak is the guvnor!! not to mention a bad dude!!!..............but a gent with it

[wallyworld8]

That's pretty cool Vunak learned bjj and built it into his JKD.

[skitz1976]

Yeah Sifu Paul trained with the Gracies in the 80's he often credits Rickson Gracie for his skills in BJJ. He was one of the first people in JKD training BJJ.

[gaivietdep]

By blind luck i became interested in martial arts and happened into a Vunak instructors school,at 16 what are the odds? after a few years of training i hit the road for a decade all over the world. His material has saved my skinny ass more times than i care to mention.Just couldnt believe how well this stuff worked i was so naive to think that all martial arts knew the simple realities he teaches.

[hellsing061678]

awesome, great martial arts teachings and a brilliant philosophy i have always felt the peace that flows through the learning of violence relates back to balancing the sides of our selves the primal and spiritual, the dark and the light and when you find that i have always felt there in lay true human nature

[1ToNJaB]

thats cool that he plays his music to balance the violence that he demonstrates daily.

[Sitbatan]

Vunak is a RAIDERS fan!! Alright!!

[SharpestBlade]

Wow! I have a few of his older tapes and there is so much knowledge on them. Now I'm definitely getting this one. Thanks Sifu Vunak.

[jkdsifu]

Sifu Paul you are an inspiration and an example as to what martial artists should be and what people should be - its been my honor and priviledge to have been your student. Peace out "Eminence Front" by the Who

[peacemaker281]

good words and good music! The Who "Eminance front"!

[johnnymac74]

I have always known the Paul is such a great artist. One thing I noticed, every TRUE Martial Artist I have met in my life were the nicest people you ever know. A humbleness and compation that other martial artists can read a mile away. I am stationed in Japan and I know a few of them here. We get along very well and hold a great deal of RESPECT for each other. Paul just explained what that truely is in a way I wish I could.

[boos334]

Respekt.

[acquiesce100]

Paul Vunaks teachings have given me so much more confidence.

I cant thank him enough for teaching practical applications for real world self defence!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SHITBAGS69]

I cant believe this video hasnt had more views, vunak is - quite bluntly - the shit!!

Great stuff Paul Vunak

[rahmanxfile]

Deep

[Eric3Frog]

Vunak's DVD's the RAT and the Golden Goose are great. All the RAT moves are efficient, effective, and easy to learn. Just what the Dr. ordered to cure someone's severe case of assholeitis.

Thank you Paul Vunak for giving back.

[streetkunedo]

Sifu, god bless, you are the man.

[acquiesce100]

Paul Vunak is the best. I completed his RAT course that he taught to the US Navy Seals and I learnt more in those 2 days than I have done in years of wasted time in the dojo.

I felt like a different bloke after and had so much more confidence when i was out in Town on a Friday or Saturday night. I felt like a lethal weapon if some punk would have started some shit with me.

If you get the chance to do the RAT course for fuck sake do it and dont think twice about it.

[chodykumbra]

Cant wait to get my copy.

VU HAS ALWAYS BEEN AN ACVOCATE OF LIVE TRAINING SOME OF STUDENT HAVENT BEEN. NUMERADO HELPED ME WIN A 3 ON 8. THE THREE OF US WON EASILY. THANKS VU

[shengchenfan]

VU!!!!!!!!!Great stuff.

[shackledchi]

Vu..thank God for Vu lol, This man has been such a great help in life and the arts...never stop Paul ! Does anyone know the song title or band ?

[dudewheresmytoast]

The song is by the Who, It's called Eminence Front

[djwilko7]

i wonder if u ever was about to get into a fight with this dude would he tell u not to bother cos he would kick ur ass or wud he just knock u the fuk out?

[shengchenfan]

I saw him do that once to a guy once in St Louis.This guy got out of hand with Vu while doing Hubud and it got heated and Vu had to tighted the dude up,I think this guy saw several sides of Vu's Elbows and Headbutts.

[djpjgj]

Many thanks from PFS Sweden! We watched the DVD together yesterday and everybody appreciated Enigma! We are the only PFS club in Sweden (one of few in entire Scandinavia) and are having trouble attracting new students, so this really inspired us with new ideas..

[JamenZ]

I am sure this work will be of high quality, innovative and thorough.. I wish them the best..I also appreciate the attempt to bring the essence of humanity back to the attention of the martial artist..
