JKD: Attack & Counterattack DVD (Sample)
The idea looks very familiar to my way to fight empty hands, to use fakes and I always try to never think parry but counter attack, that removes the psychological problem with going from defensive to aggressive, all the parries have to hurt and create as much pain as possible, the pain will make the opponent become more tense and will make him less explosive and slows him down.
The human chess game of combat is to be at least one step ahead, either in an OODA loop or other ways to analyze the strategic situation and be one step ahead, I use mainly fakes or frame my opponent as it has a higher success rate, and I prefer to initiate instead of responding and set my opponent in a trap, being in a reactive mode is the last thing you should end up in, it is far better to have your opponent in a reactive state of mind as he will fail after 4-5 powerful and fast attacks, his mind will be overloaded on will never come further than the Observe or if he is good to the Orientate in an OODA loop.
I have lately started to wonder why I had to discover so many things on my own, luckily I have a toolbox from AMOK! to analyze what looks like the chaos of combat, why didn’t any instructor ever taught me how to set up attacks successfully, and instead showed me isolated techniques that would never work unless the opponent is an idiot, drunk or have some other problem.
My guess is that in most martial arts there is no opposition to test your skills and find the gaps that needs to be closed, that many of the instructors knows a lot of moves but have never been in a fight and have no idea what an adrenalin dump feels in a real life or death situation, I have fought in various tournaments but it will never be as scary as to be threaten to be killed with deadly weapons outside the comfort zone of training.

Combat Knife Throwing
The motto of Ralph Thorn's school of combat knife throwing is Any knife, any angle, any position; no games, no gimmicks, no limits. In this groundbreaking video production from Paladin Press, he proves it, teaching you a truly combative style of weapons throwing that isn't based on figuring out exact distances and numbers of spins and half-spins. In fact, Thorn has mastered a no-spin throwing style that cuts through the myth and hokum to show that there's no mystery or complexity to knife throwing: all you need are a few knives, a target, and some practice. Relying on gross motor skills, Thorn shows you how to throw not only knives and swords, but also improvised weapons: if it has a point, you can get it to stick consistently and accurately. Using state-of-the-art computer graphics and super-slow-motion videography, you will learn the mechanics of the no-spin throw, the powerful sidearm throw for close-range fighting, the underhand half-spin throw, the shuriken throw for long-distance attacks and much more. Thorn also shows various trick throws, including blindfolded throwing, behind-the-back knife tosses and throwing accurately while going at a dead run.

Chen Xiaowang Applications DVD excerpt, Laojia/19ct w/ fajin
Chen Xiaowang Applications DVD excerpt, Laojia/19ct w/ fajin, off "Ancestral Chen-style Taijiquan: Internal strength learning boxing and coiling slightly"
Also, for English speakers - the translation is obviously very rough. This is one of those reasons to 1) learn Chinese, or 2) watch these DVDs over and over to start to get what is meant. Both are good. :-) And, of course, to concentrate your attention on the fine movements of such a master of the body. What he says is important, how he moves is its manifestation.
Also, I feel sorry for the guy in red. He really gets tossed around, even though I'm sure Chen Xiaowang isn't trying to break him. Though the clipping back to bigger angles is poorly timed, as always on these DVDs... The "Too much production" problem in this whole series (green-screen dragons, waterfalls, etc. taking away from Chen Xiaowang's amazingness)
Lastly, the final bit on this DVD (this is the last 10 minutes) on the applications of foot stomp and downward punch is golden. Super helpful for me.

How to Avoid Bouncing Bullets: Handgun Combatives
Handgun Combatives, Part 2: Enhancing Your Combat Shooting Skills, with Dave Spaulding
Available now from the Professional Action Library: http://www.paladin-press.com/product/Handgun-Combatives-Vol2
In a market saturated with information about the combative use of a handgun comes a much-needed practical perspective from the 2010 Law Officer Trainer of the Year, Dave Spaulding. For the Handgun Combatives videos, Spaulding draws on what he has learned in more than 35 years of law enforcement and federal security experience to show you what fighting with a pistol is really like. Spaulding readily admits that much of what he knows about shooting he learned from others, because he made it his business to learn from the best. Spaulding then takes this hard-earned knowledge and adds his own unique, combat-proven twists.
In the second part of Handgun Combatives, Dave Spaulding shows you how to apply the handgun shooting essentials you learned from Part 1 to more advanced scenarios. The fundamental rule for situational shooting— from vehicles, in low-light or inconsistent lighting, in extreme close quarters, to the rear, or when clearing a building in a oneman- entry operation—is behavioral consistency. Achieving this consistency requires the right skills. Every move you make, every aim you take, or every shot you fire is more likely to be successful if it has been perfected through proper training techniques and drills.
Now you can benefit from Spaulding's hands-on street experience, indepth firearms instruction, and committed personal training practices to ensure that you are ready, able, and willing to fire your handgun if needed.
