Hey Crew,

 

It's the first of the month and time to release our newest ESP RAW DVD which is the 14th volume in our Combination Man Curriculum (CMC).
  
  
This volume can work stand-alone, but it will be of most use if you have drilled RAW 127 (Clinch Fundamentals.

You'll get the full sales pitch in the next block, but if you wanna save yourself some money and see what the Combination Man Curriculum is all about 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 and perhaps catch up on the CMC Program.
  
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 136
ESP RAW 136: CLINCH TAKEDOWNS: The Primaries

 

[We will take the our Weighting & The Rule of Palms lessons from RAW 127 and start putting them through their paces here.]

 

We are going to take the most common clinch positon: The Neutral or Stalemate and drill the primary throws that can be made here that call for no back exposure (that is, no hip, headlock, mares, or arm spins--not yet). These are defensively safe, high-speed offensive options geared for Neutral Position.

 

Here's the content breakdown:

  • We'll make sure we all understand the 3 Contact-Control Points which will go a long way towards diagnosing if/when a drop goes wrong and how to fix it.
  • We'll also hammer home The Steering Wheel concept and why shallow turning is a common error.
  • We'll introduce The 6 Primary Over-Hook Side Drops in isolation (Heel Freeze, Knee Sweep, Foot Sweep, Swiss Drop, Cross-Heel, and the Cross-Knee Tap].

Working these in isolation is ideal to build precision in technique, but these will never occur in these pristine circumstances, so...

  • We'll show how to drill all six primaries off of an initiation or transition.
  • Then we'll take a close-look at how to perfect your Step-Up which is often the demarcating line between merely pummeling and "Oh, now I get it!"
  • We then drill the 6 Primaries off of a Step-Up which will push your finesse factor through the roof and compensate for the reality that your opponent will be "hiding" his hips.
  • We'll then use the Step-Up to Create a Body-Lock that originates from the feet as opposed to the arms (a common error).
  • We'll discuss how to un-root from here and how to use the un-root to get your back off of the cage.
  • We'll hit two modified Twisting Body-Locks that will allow you to avoid "pulling your opponent into a mounted position on top of you." [If I had a buck for every time I've seen that error.]
  • We'll show you how to drill the 6 Primaries in a Locked Position.
  • Then drill 2 Bonus Drops, one to combat deeply hidden hips, and the other a sneaky un-root from the step-up.

These drills are best performed with a live opponent, but, in a pinch, a throwing dummy will suffice.

 

This volume, as with all RAW Volumes, comes with a printed syllabus for easy 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 136 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.]

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.
