good dvd (2008-11-23)
Customer Review : 5
this dvd is great for beginers. simco really put together a well rounded complete dvd. i like simcos products much better than the gracies. simco give you solid techniques that work and that you actully see people using over and over agian as the gracies books/dvds (which i fell into the gracie hype and wasted hundreds of dollars on there products) give a bunch of random techniques and makes it difficult to learn. so over all for $20 dollars you cant go wrong. the only thing i thought he should of added is a guillotine and takedown defense/pulling guard defense. simco also sales a bjj dvd essential set that looks idenical to this one but is $100
An Outstanding Value !! (2008-10-16)
Customer Review : 5
This set is just a bargain, pure and simple. Solid fundamentals with lots of great detail. No frills or fancy graphics
just great instruction. May seem a little plodding at first, but I keep returning to it. I learn more every time I watch it.
Solid Fundamentals For Beginners (2008-07-03)
Customer Review : 5
Gene Simco's two-disc DVD is an excellent 'how-to' introductory course for beginners in the art of submission fighting. This can be a quality vehicle in doing homework between classes and may even give you an edge in preparing for classes or competition. Simco has a great teaching style and takes his time in demonstrating the holds, takedowns, escapes and grappling sequences from a variety of angles. He packs more information into this 200-minute DVD than many instructors cover in three months of classes.
Intermediate fighters will also find this useful for review and even exploring topics that may have been briefly discussed or overlooked. For advanced fighters, there is little more than review except for the end of Disc Two where some good tips are available in 'chain' techniques and ground maneuvering.
Again, students from beginner to intermediate will benefit from this high quality course offered at a bargain price.

Essential Techniques (2008-01-20)
Customer Review : 5
I haven't actually bought this particular DVD set. But I do have Gene Simco's 4 DVD Set, "Essential Techniques." Looking at the description and video preview for this DVD at the producers' website, this set seems to be one and the same. I paid $100 for my set at Simco's site, so at Amazon, this is a steal. I thought I would pass along this information so people don't spend more than they need to.
As far as the DVD set, this set is basically a companion to Simco's beginner book, "Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Basics". He goes over the basic foundational techniques that you will use to build into some of the most advanced techniques in BJJ. I second the notion that it seems like you are almost there in class with Gene. The camera angles are great and what makes Gene stand out as an instructor are the way he puts the what seem to be complex techniques into the simplest terms. This makes it very easy to go from the explanation to the application.
The set goes over:
Standing techniques: Basic standing technique, closing the distance, takedowns from the clinch and when your opponent is behind you.
Attacks from the top: Guard passing, hold downs, submissions from the top and back.
The Guard: Sweeps, submissions, arm locks and chokes. The three pillars of guard submission (Triangle, arm lock, omoplata) and combinations.
Escapes and Leg locks: Escape from the pin, leg locks and leg lock escapes.
For what it's worth.
