  • This is an explanation of a beginning lesson. It's design is to help the student learn to move, not be a robot step 1, 2, etc. Master Dave and Master Macias are both VERY skilled and ranked in Machado BJJ. Practicing a lesson is not practicing fighting. Any skilled martial artist would be able to understand this.

  • @djkristang and im not saying your fighting style is "wrong and bad and mine is better" shit, im just saying there arnt really any videos on youtube that are gonna show you real San Soo in real situations because it would be very graphic

  • @djkristang If you simply base San Soo on this video (or many of the San Soo "Demonstrations" on youtube) then you are completely right because most of the "Demonstrations" between two people on youtube is not real San Soo, my father is a black belt in what i like to think of as "Real San Soo" and its more tone towards real fights and real situations, where its hard to see because my thumb is in your eye or its hard to breathe because you got hit in the throat, not this "catch your punch" shit

  • Man I can sit here and pick this crappy shit appart all day! I would love for someone to fall into my guard and give their back in a fight!

  • What happens when you fight someone that actually knows how to fight? Because I guarantee no one in San Soo Can catch my jab and before they had time to hit my solor plex my cross would be connecting with their jaw. Then as they were stunned from my cross, because no one in san soo knows how to take a punch, my hook would KO them. LOL San Soo, Waste of time. I could not throw a punch and beat a san soo chump with my jiu jitsu. LOL

  • It's all about deception. San Soo is ALL offensive. There is no waiting. Anyone within arms distance can be hurt badly in 2 strikes. We drill effective, correctly timed, and powerful movements. We get right the first time. Resistance from an opponent is not a factor. If a San Soo practitioner ends up on the ground, then have not mastered the art. Period. This art is no joke.

  • BJJ is where its at

  • Once the knee is locked out he is going down or his knee would hyper extend or break, when done fast there is a good chance that it might. I can promise that Dave is not a "moron", his studio is in Riverside, California. You should check it out in person if you can. Watch some of his black belt promotions, most if not all of his black belts are impressive.

  • One thing I will say about the takedown done on this video. Japandrifting, you made a comment about the master breaking his knee cap on the takedown. As hes going down, he is hooking the back of the heel with his right hand and leans into the leg with his body locking out the knee knocking him down. He is doing the lesson slow, in reality he would not drop his weight on his knee and then roll through him, he would hook the heel and roll his body weight through as he dropped.

  • sansookilla--- masters in any art are not found in high numbers. you imply that slow speed vs. full speed are different, but the same problems will be found at any speed. i incorporate a large amount of grappling in the art i teach, but only as a last resort. i teach my students to hit and get out of there. don't go to the ground unless your opponent pulls you down there.
