Written Summary:
You can almost see
the elbows being popped out of place as you watch this very informative video on
elbow techniques by Marco Lala. This is "the" definitive video on using
the elbow as a striking weapon, and on performing elbow locks against an opponent.
There is also a great deal of material on how to escape some of the common locks
that are applied against the elbow. There is something on this video for everybody
regardless of their martial arts skill level. Mr. Lala's use of voiceovers makes
for a clear and logical presentation of the material. The video is well produced,
and Mr. Lala, who is an extremely talented martial artist, is an exceptionally good
video instructor on this particular tape. Of the videos I have seen by Mr. Lala,
this is definitely the best one. The tape is at least 75 minutes long and there is
virtually no wasted time.
The first segment of the tape deals with using
the elbow as a striking weapon. The various elbow attack angles are shown, along
with several traditional, as well as free style, drills for incorporating the elbow
strikes into one's muscle memory. The second part of the tape deals with using various
joint locks against the elbow. At least 8 to 10 different joint locks are shown here
as well as some trapping and countering drills. The third part of the tape deals
with escapes against some of these more common joint locks and there is a fair amount
of grappling/groundfighting tips in this section as well. There is a lot of material
on this tape and I highly recommend this tape if one wants to really understand how
to effectively use ( and defend against ) elbow attacks in combat situations.
