Brazilian Jiu Jitsu: NO GI Essentials

Roy Dean Media, 2010

Clear Cut and Valuable
Overall, this DVD set has a lot to teach and does so in a format that is easily understood and clear to watch. You could re watch these DVDs several times and learn new techniques or new facets of a technique each time. A very good investment. More specifically: I thought the first section on how to move properly was a little slow, since I've been involved in martial arts for so long that ...

The Pit Workout

MMA Roots, 2006

Better than P90X!
I completed 90 days of P90X and had great results but wanted more of a challenge and even more results. The Pit workout does it and is more fun for me because I am interested in MMA. I am noticing a higher level of strength and fitness, and getting a little more cut. P90X feels like aerobics compared to this! I still mix in the weights DVDs from P90X, but the PIT pushes you harder. And you are ...

That night in Rio...DVD
I really love movies starring Carmen Miranda. I have nine of them. Since Carmen Miranda grew up in Brazil and was a very successful performer there, I believe that Liriel Domiciano must have watched all of Carmen's movies and learned to perform in a similar way. In Carmen's movie, "Cocacobana", Carmen Miranda sings her well-known song, "Chico, Chico, Loco Bom! Also, Groucho Marx does an act ...

Repetition will be your teacher...
... because Kimberly Miguel Mullen can't cue in this video. I took an African Brazilian Dance class a couple years ago (for several months) and I absolutely loved it. The video is somewhat close to the same moves we did in class. The music featured was close enough as well. I purchased the video due to these two things. The set is lovely and you can see that everyone is doing their own level in ...

Great DVD, well worth the price!
I'm just starting with BJJ and while searching for training material to supplement my class lesson, I found Roy Dean's DVD on a local DVD store and bought it. The illustrations of techniques are great with varying degrees of difficulty (well, for a beginner like me) and by watching and training it with a dummy, I quickly learned all the tricks. I would highly recommend this to all white belt ...

Black Orpheus: Essential Art House

5 reviews
Bruno Mello, Marpessa Dawn

Criterion Collection, 2009

A Must See Film For Movie Buffs!
Black Orpheus is an excellent film set in Rio de Janeiro during Carnaval. Just a simple tale of boy meets girl, boy falls in love with girl, lovers have to face the complications of their forbidden love, and finally, the consequences of their love. A modern day (at the time) retelling of the classic Orpheus and Eurydice myth, Black Orpheus is a masterpiece. The acting by Breno Mello (Orpeo), ...

StratoStream - World Dance New York, 2009

"Let's Get Up and Dance!"
Created by the dynamic Quenia Ribeiro for beginner and intermediate students, in her "Welcome" portion, Quenia says that even if we are just starting out, we will learn by repetition, and if the movements are too difficult at first, to "...modify them to suit your needs." The 2nd part is a super-stretchy, extensive (approximately 20 minutes) and effective warm-up. Beyond learning the samba on ...

Vanessa Isaac

Hip Brazil, 2003

So much fun!
I LOVE this DVD! It is great fun, and a good workout. I appreciate the way they break each section down at a slower tempo so you can see exactly what they're doing. The instructor is energetic and bubbly without being so peppy that it makes you sick first thing in the morning. The only complaint I could have is that I wish there were a specific section where they DIDN'T break the moves down, ...

Fun, edgy and clever
Very entertaining film with fun, twisty plot, very charismatic actors, nice soundtrack, and some clever quotes from other films. Deserves to be much better known. Would have loved to see more of the flamenco dancing!

Manda Bala

Jader Barbalho, Claudio Fonteles

WEA, 2008

Powerful & Revealing Documentary
Director Jason Kohn does an amazing job demonstrating the tie that binds a variety of strangers in Sao Paolo, from frog farmers and plastic surgeons, to kidnapping victims and the city's police. It's the butterfly effect at it's darkest. The documentary paints an amazing portrait of Sao Paolo, whose class system seems largely the result of centuries of corruption. One of the most interesting ...

well worth the money particularly if you can find a cheaper source
it is well worth the money as it provides a different point of view n way to tackle some of jujitsu problems. saulo repeatedly emphasized the importance of energy conservation, leverage and avoid using power against power on the moves are something that all beginners n intermediate practisioners need to take at heart. his teaching is solid, very detailed and easy to understand. also the ...

Roy Dean

RDA Media, 2009

Advancing through connection
I've amassed a large library of martial arts books and video materials over the years. In "Purple Belt Requirements" Roy Dean continues his description of the BJJ journey relating his own experiences. He demonstrates the importance of being able to link techniques to advance your BJJ game, and most importantly the mental aspect of "What makes a purple belt". The techniques and philosophies in ...

Absolute stunner!
It doesn't get better than this dvd of Ivete Sangalo, if you are into the axé style, or any latin style for that matter, this will be an absolutely wonderful piece to add to any collection of music. A true uplifting experience with musical passion from start till end, you don't want to miss this one.

Paulo Autran, Caio Blat

City Lights Home Vid, 2008

I loved this movie so much I bought more copies for gifts!
The Year My Parents Went on Vacation is a beautifully told story which presents itself in a fashion that makes the viewer want to learn more about the main character, his family and the people who have chose to care for him. I was engrossed by the concept of this film from the first few moments. A child in need of a "village" to parent him. It is hard to discuss this movie without adding ...

Vanessa Isaac

Hip Brazil, 2005

Great fun workout
Vanessa Isaac is a good instructor and the others in the video are cute and fun to watch. The workout is a fun, cardio but low-impact program. I enjoyed watching the scenes from beautiful Salvador, Bahia in Brazil where I had spent a month. It brought back wonderful memories. My sister did the workout with me and she liked it. I gave it to her as a gift and she looks forward to using it on a ...

Aikido|Brazilian Jiu Jitsu|Art of the Wristlock

1 review
Roy Dean, Rick Ellis

Roy Dean Media, 2008

More than just Wristlocks
I want to start off by saying that you should not think that this is a DVD set purely focused on wristlocks. There is a truly massive amount of information contained in these two discs. While the first disc is primarily an overview of the various jiu jitsu wristlocks and their application (I will talk about this more below), disc 2 contains two very extensive seminars taught by Mr Dean. I am a ...
