5.0 out of 5 stars Invaluable instruction, June 9, 2013

I worked stadium security for 26 years before retiring recently. It’s an interesting environment–almost everything we did had a good chance of winding up on video, yet we needed to enforce the rules, break up fights, and generally keep order without getting sued or seriously hurting anyone. If that sounds familiar to you, this video is a vital resource. Restrain and control techniques fill the vast majority of roles that bouncers, security professionals, and law enforcement officers must play in performing their duties. Sure, oftentimes we can talk people into behaving, and sometimes we need to break someone, but most of the time when we need to control or move someone it’s pain compliance, joint locks, and the like we need to use. Burrese shows the vital details necessary to make such applications most effective. Martial artists will find great value from the materials too. Volume 1 includes: Communication, Cone of Power, Arm Bar, Lower Back Wrist Lock, Goose Neck, Chicken Wing, Standing Center Lock, Applications and more. The video and sound qualities are good, the editing is professional, and the quality of instruction is simply outstanding. Highly recommended!

Here is a similar review for the second volume of this restraint and control strategies set:
