BJJ Black Belt Requirements; Roy Dean's Latest DVD Set

I always enjoy sharing information about useful resources that will definitely help improve your game and should be a part of any BJJ athletes collection.

That's why I want to go over what this 3 DVD set covers.
 
The first DVD begins with a monologue by Roy Dean that encompasses what it means to have a black belt in BJJ. This is one of the most articulate and eloquent speeches concerning BJJ that I have ever heard.

From there Roy presents a series of advanced techniques and strategies for controlling, setting up and submitting your opponents.

The second disk in the set begins with a detailed analysis of Roy Rolling with his students. The insight gained from this play by play of the mat work is immensely valuable and presents a wealth of knowledge sure to help improve your game.

The second disk ends off with a White through Black belt perspective of the Kimura. It begins looking at how a white belt sees the Kimura and transitions through the belt ranks to the Kimura through the eyes of a Black belt. Same submission yet very different perspectives and possibilities at each belt level.

The third disk is truly a phenomenal bonus as it presents a Judo Made Easy seminar conducted by Dave Camarillo, Judo and BJJ Black Belt and founder of Guerilla Jiujitsu.

This seminar covers the basics of Judo as they will help your BJJ game. The lessons taught by Dave Camarillo demonstrate a high level understanding of Judo but present it as simply as possible so that the lessons can be comprehended quickly and easily.

The back cover of the DVD concludes it's description of the material with, “Black Belt Requirements is for everyone who dreams of becoming a black belt and sharing the art.”

I couldn't agree more. This is required material for everyone practicing BJJ regardless of their current level. I highly recommend you pick up this DVD set along with all the other belt level requirements by Roy Dean.
