I get asked all the time by beginners on what I can recommend as a training supplement to accelerate their development.
Over the next few weeks I'll be covering a few of the best DVDs out there for beginners to develop their game at a faster pace.
On a side note I just want to address the topic of DVDs and state that although I do not feel that a person can adequately learn a martial art, especially one as sophisticated as Jiujitsu from DVDs. I DO feel that in proper perspective, they are an excellent training aid and supplement that can definetely help improve ones skills at a faster rate.
That said the first DVD set I would like to discuss is by BJJ Black Belt Roy Dean, called The Blue Belt Requirements.
One of the greatest things about this set is the precise detail that Mr. Dean goes into in explaining the techniques.
The demonstrations of techniques are so detailed that I can easily recommend anyone at the White Belt level to those testing for their Blue Belt to view these DVDs first as they are sure to help you focus on the details of each required technique.
Furthermore the organized approach of the DVDs helps beginners keep track of and build upon the skills they develop, further increasing their understanding of Jiujitsu and preventing confusion. Mr. Dean's skills as an instructor really shine through here as well, as he clearly and concisely articulates all the main points and keeps the viewer's focus on the important steps involved in each technique.
This two DVD set goes over all the basic positions, submissions and strategies that will allow those beginning in BJJ to help clarify all the information they get in class, helping them not only memorise but also implement the techniques and their precise details to develop a solid base in BJJ.
Roy Dean's Blue Belt Requirements should be required viewing for White Belts at all BJJ Academies.
