DVD - Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Basic Techniqes w/ Ze Marcello

From back of cover:

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is a Brazilian Martial Art - imported from Japan and later developed by the Gracie family. It's a young martial art and is still evolving. It is ground wrestling that can be practiced with or without a kimono. Each technique ends with either a choke or a dislocation (nape, shoulder, elbow, wrist, hip, knee, ankle) and with no joint twisting. Contrary to most martial arts that favor a standing fight with fist and feet strikes, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu focuses on ground fighting. This makes it a technical realm in which size and strength matter much less. Featuring Ze Marcello.

* * * * Post Viewing Notes * * * *

For this series, lighting, sound and video quality are above average - no issues. Spoken instructions clear and easy to hear though not constant - relying on visual demonstration more than spoken details.

Chapter stops for each technique - perfectly acceptable length. Each technique is repeated multiple times from several angles, and done slowly enough to see exact hand and body placements.

Clearly, this DVD would work well for learning new techniques without any other aid (except a partner, of course!).

Overall, a very nice DVD and series - worth multiple viewings.
