CARL CESTARI'S
FUNDAMENTALS OF UNARMED COMBAT
This is the first DVD in the Carl Cestari Catalogue. It is shrink wrapped, brand new in the plastic bi-fold case with sleeve artwork as well as artwork on the dvd.
FUNDAMENTALS OF UNARMED COMBAT:
This DVD covers the 3 prerequisites of hand to hand combat of distance, momentum and balance. You will learn how to establish a safe distance, how to position yourself in relation to an attacker and how to use explosive techniques such as edge of hand blows, chin-jabs, stomps and gouges. The concept of ‘lead with speed, follow with power’ will be discussed as well as how not to ‘telegraph’ your intentions to your attacker.

Very simple (uncomplicated) techniques. I appreciate the emphasis on offensive battery attacks, distance, momentum, and hand positions. I really like Carl's demeanor, too.

The methods and ideas presented in this DVD are equally suitable for individuals that do not have any self defense training or those feeling their martial art is missing something.
This instruction is ideal for anyone that does not have the time or desire for extensive self defense training or studying a traditional martial art.
I would have given this DVD 5 Stars if not for the fact my previous trainings have helped me stay loose and mobile during an altercation. Staying loose and mobile are powerful assets if the altercation lasts longer than 5 or 6 seconds

I'm just starting out in my combatives journey and found this to be a highly informative hour long lesson from a master of combatives.
There is some much good information in the DVD that I can see myself referring to it again and again.
Well worth the cost and time, highly recommended.
