[.ca] Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Submission Grappling Techniques (ISBN 1931229295)

Fantastic:
There is no better word to describe this book. If you are into Submission Grappling and No Gi training, you need to get it. The details and the instructions are top notch. Royler Gracie and Kid Peligro are to be commended, there is nothing to complain about, the organization is great, the technique selection covers all the important aspects of submission grappling. The intro is the best, Kid Peligro digs deep into Royler's pool of knowledge and extracts this strategy, insight and tips on everything from training, preparation for competition and even fight strategy. Then continues on to photos and descriptions of the grips and differences between Gi training and Submission, followed by standing techniques and the ground techniques. The ground techniques are grouped into areas making it very easy to follow and to get the what ifs and variations from the poisitions. Royler's success in No Gi tournaments is unquestioned and to be able to read and watch his favorite techniques in one book is fantastic. A must have

Realistic Fighting Techniques:
This is a must have book for anyone who currently practices Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, or who is interested in the art of grappling. I almost have my blue belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, and discovered that while reading through these very helpful step-by-step instructions and detailed photographs, I had many more things to learn about Jiu Jitsu. An awesome book to read because of the real-life-fighting value it has. Royler Gracie is one of the most skilled Jiu Jitsu practitioners I have ever seen. I highly recommend picking one up, regardless of skill level. Another recommendation is "Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, theory and technique" by Renzo, and Royler Gracie.

Well written, good buy:
Royler used a very practical approach with this book and He made it very easy to read and understand. The pictures show all the positions from more than one angle to give you a better look. Also the detailed descriptions leave nothing to figure out. I pulled many new moves and perfected some of my basics with this book. I would say this may be one of the best no-gi grappling books ever put together.

The Mark Beekman, Justin Teplitz, and Kid Peligro adventure!:
Oh, what a book Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Malvern Fantasy Fiction is! Royler and Kid were rightous Players, dudes for their brillaince in this book! Their characters, Justin Teplitz and Mark Beekman, are attacked by vicious thugs while in the gun/drug infested blue-collar Pennsylvania town coming out of Cedar Hallow Inn Restaurant (not to be confused with Shallow Hal Restaurant). Anyways, these guys, Cameron, Faiz, Connor, Ruccio, Jones, Jermaine, Sal, and Antonio, yell, "Hey Catie and Jennifer Sue, Lose the Karate geeks and get with us." All of a sudden, barefooted knife-weilding hero Philly Sal punched Justin in the gut. Luckily, his best friend and BJJ expert Mark Beekman comes to the rescue, dishing out armbars and anklelocks like Christmas presents until each villian is defeated:) The Beek and Tep then travel to Cold Stone and Baskin's ice cream parlors to celebrate their kumite and talk about gold. When they sit their dupas (Mr Larish's word for reer end Tom Green bumm bumm bum) down, they hear jokes, such as "How do you say Pu$$y backwards?" The aged Guspar Romano then makes the sound, which is rude and disgusting, especially when young girls were trying to enjoy their frozen treats in the next booth. Knowing Brazilain Jiu-Jitsu, Mark then takes Gaspar Trump Romano out with a single blow to the head! The young girls were clapping! Then Oasis's song, Wonderwall comes on. You just see the whole ice cream parlor burst into tears, as well as Gustin and Beckman. They leave to see Master, a punk who needed to be taught a lesson that even though Beek and Tep are sons of Attorneys-of-Law, they still can scrap with the Big Boys! The car detail shop is filled with posers. It is now getting late. No one is around. Marky parks his Saturn at Wawa and proceeds over to Master with Oakley's and A/X clothing with Justin, who's decked out in Reebok's, eye glasses, and a Frank Mir t-shirt. The next thing you see are twelve Posers on the ground and a cloud of smoke, which Beek and Tep come out of with gas masks on (they maced the 80s punks)! Royler has more jokes, too, just like Teen Wolf Too (Fox), Mission Impossible Too (Cruise/Kevin Sorbo), Forrest Gump Too (Hanks/Hiney), and Inside the Lion's Den Too (Frank Mir). "So, a Mexican is caught in Malvern around 3 AM by a cop. The police officer goes, 'what are you doing in this fine neighborhood, Player?' The Mexican tells him that he is just enjoying the tanning salons, Friendly's Restaurant, and Desmond Hotel + Resort Casino. 'Okay pal, if that's true, then use pink, yellow, and green in a sentence.' Slater tells the cop 'Not a problem. But I ain't your Pal, dikkno$e! The phone goes green green, i pink up the phone, and say yellow!' Harf Hinies for everyone!!! Ahhhh Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeat. I'm going crazy Marky and Justin and Cater and Sal Boring in bed! Gracie is okay, but Beek and Tep go through hard times together and finally SEE THE LIGHT AT THE END OF THE TUNNEL IN THEIR RELATIONSHIP ON MARK'S 30TH BIRTHDAY!!! To Conclude, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: Submission Grappling Techniques by Royler Gracie and Kid Peligro ruled!!! Bye Friend~

Outstanding:
Royler, and crew have put together yet another excellent book on Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. This book is on par with JJ Machado's Black Belt techniques. Royler's book my well be the best of the series. No mean feat that. It deals more substantially with the stand up portion of a a grappling match than any of the other invisisble cities BJJ books and also discusses grips. This in itself is a huge plus. Most of the BJJ books on the market, even the much touted Brazilian Jiu-jitsu The Master Text, fails to deal adequately with stand-up material. Royler has put together some outstanding material. It has great techniques, great advice, and high production value. This is a book that will definately add to your submission grappling arsenal, while refining what you already know. Well worth the price.
