MBC Guerrilla Video Volume 4: Damithurt Silat: Aspects of Trapping

[@zackzelmo]

This mans vids are among the best. Great techniques, explanations, and a balanced sense of confidence make him one of the best instructors.

[@jamespisano1164]

Really awesome. If you grab the wrist of an experienced fighter (grappler), he'll make you pay. And Mr Janich is so right; you don't have a lot of control with just the wrist, if the attacker knows how to fold, you could end up in trouble anyway. You've got a great down to earth style of teaching sir.

[@StaySafeMedia]

The Guerrilla Video Clips were never DVDs. The material is taught in depth in the Practical Unarmed Combatives Volumes 1, 2 &3 DVD series. You can find the trailers on our channel.

This is excellent I'm a former martial artist myself(Black belt Shotokan) but unable to train following an accident, today I got my Yojimbo 2 as I collect Spyderco knives, just want to say thank you Michael Janitch for a really Great knife

[@stefanfeigenbaum4816]

I love that you teach in jeans and t shirt.For me this only ads to the whole no-nonse,keep it real atitude of yourse.Thanks very much.

[@KempoCombatives]

Love this video Mr. Janich! It's nice to see there is someone else out there who believes we can take the lessons that traditional martial arts teaches us and apply combative principles to them to make them much more efficient and street effective. Thumbs up!

[@wadejensen3301]

What I really like about this gentleman's approach is that he talks in terms of concepts rather than techniques....he has also mentioned in other video's that you learn the concepts and then express them in your own way as appropriate to your physique and mental attributes etc.....very sound approach.

[@dirtpoorchris]

One of the best trapping videos Ive seen. Very functional and is bound to get peoples attention that think trapping is useless.

[@Despierto]

This gentleman understands the realities well. This is Thinking's Man Martial Art.

[@JoelHuncar]

Beautiful stuff Mr Janich, you never fail to deliver when it comes to practical cobatives.

[@kravmagadave]

I love these videos, these concepts compliment any style

[@Sharkman3472]

Great stuff!! I love Mike Janich. His stuff is easy and straight forward. I have volume #2 of this set. All of his moves are very easy to "Build Upon" You can throw in some of your own stuff and you get a great system that is very practical.

[@combatives]

This is actually a common movement found in many Silat methods, just Michael throws in some variations. Good teaching, trapping has many variations.

[@mathswithgarry7104]

Interesting that the first concept, using the "draw hand" to help pull the arm into the trap is very similar to something Kelly Worden teaches in his Destroy-Trap-Lock" videos. He grabs the hand and pulls it back to his hip, in a similar move. See his first KZbin clip on DTL.

[@operatordynamic9038]

There is some good practical stuff here. I would caution that the trap itself as demonstrated here, is troublesome. After playing around with this at full speed, its unreliable at best. I would encourage anyone to try this type of trap at live sparring speeds and check your results. Everything demonstrated after the trap in this video is basic, solid fundamentals of close combat, should you be able to tie up the arm in that fashion.

[@NabilAbdulrashidComedy]

Awesome... You ever applied any of this In a real situation ?

[@ardknk]

great video, your explanation are really clear.

[@DjRodimusPrimeXyZ]

@perfectshot77 its simple because this is not for sport, going the distance is good in all but ending a fight as quickly as possible is the best solution, happy training.

[@Kev80ification]

This guy knows his stuff!!

[@anthonyschurz7613]

this video shows up close and personal control. as mentioned before, incapacitate attacker quickly. after trapping arm and then grabbing other hand up against the chest. take right hand, and make fist like going to punch face. rotate hand 90 degrees counterclockwise with thumb protruding and Strike deep into eye sockets. blinding assailant. follow up with nasal strike and throat strike and then throwing to ground. breaking arm. then evade

[@kobe51]

This is great! Any school in Florida?

[@rakugakid]

Is this DVD still available?

[@cwdl2004]

Question u going to be fast enough to wrap that elbow around the arm on. Jab or punch ? .. maybe not ..

[@austinpundit6321]

There is no perfect technique that is guaranteed to work against every possible opponent.

[@Bellvista2]

He really explains the basics execellent

[@justd3rd]

great stuff!!!

[@Rapist87]

Nice. Finally trapping that might actually be practical. Will I be buying this DVD? You bet your ass I will

[@melmcteggart]

Good man, how long have you contributing to the Darwin awards for now?

[@austinpundit6321]

Boy, that was a really mature contribution. Got an actual criticism? Lets hear it. But be specific. Otherwise you just look like a dill.

[@zaxarion]

If the elbow trapped this would mean your shoulder cannot retract. And if your shoulder cannot retract, your free hand won't be able to hit an opponent who is in your flank (outside guard) try it. If you want I can make a video of the mechanics of this principle for you.

[@MF_UNDERTOW]

Ironically, it's Christmas right now.

[@SuperMaryu767]

Trapping in general does not work, usually in demonstrations the trapping guy is moving faster because he has more movements then the guy who is simply punching to make it look like it works. And most people with common sense is not going to stand there with their arm trapped. Real fights are sudden and fast and trying to trap is a bad idea.

[@EVEROSFP1]

Great techniques but funny place!

[@naz203040]

Best

[@psychophipps]

That was a pretty non-optimal demonstration of a Lop Sao, to be frank. A real Lop Sao is very similar to the methodology demonstrated in video #1 of this series. The Wing Chun "sticky hands" is done with a check,block,trap series and he only showed the check part of it. Kind of disappointed, to be honest. The video did have some great stuff in it, though. *thumbs up*

[@mathswithgarry7104]

Its not a real lop sao. Its similar, but he applies it further up the arm, for the reasons he discussed. I like it. Mike has adapted a lot of stuff from various arts, and built into his own system. Make what use of it you will.

[@lazarenkoka]

Trapping

[@berengerdietiker22]

I think trapping isn't applicable to self-defense.

[@Fredengle]

dont think so?? my question to you is how much self defense experience do you have? I am black belt it karate a move taught is call the trap and roll

[@brandoncanals3446]

So then u could do .mma

[@LoderMike]

Repent

[@shevrai2510]

ill give you or any of ur guys my whole bank account if u can do those locks on me when im throwing punches. ufc already proved all this stuff doesnt work under pressure

[@mortgagefinancing5558]

so unrealistic
