Pick An Adventure Seminars

Some of us are old-enough to remember a series of interactive books where readers were asked to make a decision and then go to a corresponding page to see what sort of mess you got yourself into. You never quite knew where you were going to wind up with these books--pre-video game era, these were a novel idea.

 

Here's where you come in, if you'd like to host a seminar and save yourself some bucks off of the standard fees in the process--if you've got an Adventure Race in your area, a rock you think I'd like to climb, a river you think I want to raft, a hike you think I just need to take, a desert I've not run on, you get the idea--pitch your adventure and school location. If the adventure appeals and the logistics are right we offer greatly reduced fees to come to your school and play with your crew before we go play at your Adventure Pitch.

 

BTW--You and your crew are welcome to attend the adventure, as a matter of fact, we'll knock off even more bucks for this sort of hands-on guiding.

 

So, you got some adrenaline in your neck-of-the-woods and want to train? Feel free to make your pitch and we'll see what happens.

Hey Crew,

 

It's the first of the month and time to release our newest ESP RAW DVD which is the SEVENTH volume in our new Combination Man Curriculum.
  
(This is a stand-alone volume but it is made stronger by studying alongside ESP RAW 123 on Head Snap entries as this volume runs us into chaining versus resisted/failed snaps).

You'll get the full sales pitch in the next block, but if you wanna save yourself some money consider joining the RAW Crew and check out the ESP RAW Subscription service info to your left. You can save yourself some money on this volume of RAW ($5.50 to be exact) and pick up 3 more volumes of RAW absolutely free.
  
Thanks everyone and have a great week!
  
Sincerely,

 

Mark Hatmaker

PS--We've lowered many of our commercial DVD prices, in some cases by as much as 50%. Check 'em out here

ESP RAW 129: Pop-Up Takedowns + Standing Leg Locks

This is volume 7 in the Combination Man Curriculum (CMC) and the complete title of this volume is "POP-UP TAKEDOWNS FROM SQUARE: Head to Ankle Set-Ups + Standing Leg Locks.

 

Wha?

 

We will start all the material here from the Square Position (revised Collar & Elbow--to make it applicable for both straight-grapplers and MMA).

 

Here's the complete skinny...

  • How to set up the Square Position and why standard Collar & Elbow exposes you to vulnerabilities.
  • We define Pop-Up Takedowns as shooting that allows you to get under your opponent and then hit your feet just as they hit the mat--more often than not with a nice breakable leg in your evil little hands.
  • We demonstrate "how to be tall when you drop." Failure to be tall means you won't be getting back up and welcome to playing that extended guard game, crew.
  • We cover how to Push/Pull to get up ("the easy chair" concept and "exposing the wedge"). If your legs are doing more than 20% of the work in the stand-up chances are you are looking at an inefficient takedown.
  • Next we'll get into 6 Pop-Up Takedowns from the Head-Control Position and discuss why all Knee & Ankle Picks are Near Picks (or least should be) and the order of operation to make that formula work for you.
  • Also, we hit the vital importance of not leaving your head behind on any pick--do so and you will be countered.
  • We then move our control points down the body as we fire 9 Hip Control Pop-Ups from the Square Position and get that La-Z- Boy work going.
  • We'll then hit 3 Knee Control Pop-Ups to round-off our head-to-toe journey.
  • After we've been dropping bodies we discuss what to do with that snappable leg in our hands.
  • We hit the 3 Points of Walking a Leg Up and the vital importance of Dog-Leashing the Leg, not forcing the leg to where we want it to go.
  • After we've walked the leg up we will apply 2 evil finishes that can be inserted at the end of every single Pop-Up Takedown above.

With this volume we take one position (The Square) and run an 18-Takedown Drill Set that then can be over-layed with the 2 go-to Standing Leg Hooks to double and triple your drilling rounds.

 

This volume, as with all of our RAW material, comes with a printed syllabus for inclusion in your training notebook.

 

(Hang on to these syllabi because at some point in the Combination Man Curriculum run we will supplement and key these syllabi to a Master Text for easy Drill & Technique search).

 

ESP RAW 129: can be had this month for only $32 (S & H included--Domestic & International) at the end of the month the price goes to $42 Domestic/$52 International. [Of course, it's only $26.50 for the RAW Crew.]
