It's the first of the month and time to release our newest ESP RAW DVD (volume 145).
Buncha News 1st
- The Do-Or-Die Boot scheduled for 11/8 has been cancelled and will be re-scheduled at a later date.
- I am told that Volume 3 of our Street defense Series The Outer Limits Drills will be released any week now. These Drills are the icing on the realit-cake-the material that preceded it means nothing unless or until they have been stress-tested through this drill set). And yes, we will be offering a deal on this 2 hour set once it arrives.(We are planning an Outer Limits camp in support of this DVD to allow Street Combative specialists to run thru the 60+ gauntlet. If you want in on this let us know).
- Our newest book BOXING FOR MMA is also scheduled to be released any day now. Details and deals probably by next week.
- This weekend we will be shooting 2 new commercial titles with the good folks at Stay Safe Media. Details on these 2 in-depth titles upon release. (Hint: Think Bare-Bones Street & Conditioning).
- We're pondering a new freebie-premium for our RAW Crew & inTENS Members- a private Facebook group that allows members to support (commiserate) regarding the weekly & monthly drill templates. If this sounds like a good idea, RAW Crew, let me hear you and we'll put the wheels on this thing! (Tip of the hat to Coach Bill Whitworth for the fine idea.)
And, if you want to join the RAW crew and get access to all of these goodies and save yourself some moolah 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), get inTENS Conditioning for free and the No Second Chance Drills for free and pick up 3 more volumes of RAW absolutely free.
Sincerely,
Mark Hatmaker Extreme Self Protection PS--We've lowered many of our commercial DVD prices, in some cases by as much as 50%. Check 'em out here.

ESP RAW 145
Creating the Rock Solid Grappling Stance: Solo Cycle
This volume is all devil-in-the-details, anal-retentive, nit-picky work on building rock-solid base both on your feet and on the mat.
We will use the Square Stance as a reference point and discuss how to adapt the drill-set to the Staggered & MMA stances.
We then run it through an 18-Step Solo Drill that will build mat stamina, base out of chaos, and good scramble sense.
Drills Include:
- The Stance Breakdown: Geta position of the feet, the plane of glass, the concave lumbar position, and the facing T-Rex.
- Next we discuss how to turn the hips--the motion must start from the knee-dip or you are killing your speed and power.
- We then scramble the stance through 5 Scramble Rolls--we're not playing bad gymnastics here but building facility with never opening wedges (Underhook opportunities), or leaving the neck open.
- We drill how to "stomp into your stance" and not step to recovery.
- We run 3 Deep Sprawl Drills (no weak shallow-sprawls allowed).
- We detail how to drive from the geta position to get up from the sprawl and not step-up or push-up from the sprawl.
- Next we take it to the mat and detail how to dip the shoulder out of a bridge to a get-up.
- How to use a half-heist to step-out.
- Drill a full Hip-Heist to get-up.
- Use a 50/50 pressure Stand-Up to ease get-up load from underneath.
- Next we'll knee dip to a Standing tall Sit-Out to reduce snap-backs or neck exposure.
- We'll follow that up with the Long Sit-Out for those mad scrambles.
Again, this solo drill is 18 moves deep to build that stance. You can use it to educate your stance as a pre-roll warm-up or a sport-specific cardio grinder (run it thru it's paces 5 times up to speed and you'll be huffing and puffing). However you use it, if you stick to the details your stance will be the more solid for it.
This volume (as with all volumes of RAW) comes with a printed syllabus for inclusion in your training notebook.
ESP RAW 145 can be had this month for $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.]

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.
