Professor, You are so real. I've studied and mastered at least 5 forms of martial arts. If someone who might teach or train if he says he wants to learn how to fight., I send him to a boxer. My best training has been with no pads nun chucks or any instrument. A black belt only holds up your pants. I'm an expert supposedly with close quarter hand to hand. We never were in tournaments. We were trained in street, real situations. If you didn't block that punch you left with a broken nose. Sometimes I trained so hard, I left with total bruises on my arms from blocking and counterpunching. Know your distance, move closer or move out. swing and a miss. I know all the pressure points, arm bars and locking the wrist to break it and then the elbow. We trained like you. Keep it real your a great teacher. I am from a Military and Law Enforcement Family. When you say share this video I share it. I walk into a Doctors office or the like. Everybody has their eyes on their phones, I could have one guy come from the back door and 2 through the front and take that place over in less than 2 minutes. Thank you for all you do.
I am so proud to say that prof. James is someone I learned under and trained with in the past. I share his videos with just about everyone I know. And Believe me he is the realest that they come!
God bless that deceased man wherever he is. And bless his wife too and give strength to her to bear this terrible loss. I really hope everybody knows how to defend themselves in life threatening situations through these real teachers like Professor James. This channel deserves so many more subscribers, just because of the selfless service Professor is providing us to all! I know Professor James is an old and a very recognised, respected name in the field of martial arts and self defense.
Thank you so much for this video. I studied Kali since the early 80's. Flow drill exercises develop sensitivity. Sensitivity has its place, but the flow drill exercises themselves do not work in a street situation. I understand the distinction. Much love and respect to Professor David and Shihan Kenny.
Well said! Keeping your response simple and effective is what gives you the best chance of going home to your family. Self-offense is the name of the game!
I'm saddened to see how that man was stabbed to death in front of his girl. Everyone feels this loss of a life that results from this altercation. Seeing how this unfolded pushes me to train more with my wife and reinforce my code for "it's time to go!" If that man had an ounce of a self-defense technique maybe he would still be alive. This video and its message is real.
The hardest thing in the world brother it's to master oneself for in truth it is our greatest opponent it's a shame there aren't more instructors like you and what's worse a poor guy like me can't even afford to walk into your classroom let alone any other
I love Prof James videos very candid and common sense when demonstrating true self defense in a real world 🌎 situation. I am so moved that I want to visit his dojo in person to get hands on practical knowledge
I believe strongly in my heart, that more people in fact almost all people need to watch these vids, and learn to really protect themselves out there. Gentlemen, you two are very very much appreciated. Thank you both, from the bottom of my heart. Peace.
See professor, you and Shihan Kenny keeps it real, and straight to the point, and that’s what I love about you two, you give people hope to protect themselves, and their families!
Love information my brother saving lives live here in Philly it’s just as bad Have to protect yourself and the people you love at all times never drop your guard
I do not know fighting techniques or anything, a couple street fights back in the days...and Prof James I watched 2 videos, just 2 and you changed my thinking already.....not to be some big bad fighter. You have to control your thinking during what could be the deadliest moment of your life.....
Thank you Professor I been teaching Gojo for 52 years. I have been teaching over 40 years. Everything you are teaching me I am teaching my students, but I am taking my katas apart an making it work for today. OSU........
I grew up like this in the Rougher parts of London, where I left night School knowing the Gang on the corner were all carrying Blades and you can't because if anything kicks off, you the Good Guy have everything to lose and they don't care about going inside, it's a Badge of Honour. I defended myself, I started training in Judo at 11 years old I'd been graded and held a license when assaulted by two thugs with house Bricks, when it became an altercation, he went for the steel pen in his top pocket, He was also much taller than me, I took his eyes and stuck the others ear, dropped them both. If not for all the witnesses who came forward for me, I would have served 15 years in prison for a first offence, I was the only person charged. This attitude by the police that the defender who has done nothing but go about their life, creates this.
OUS!!! Like always an absolute amazing lesson filled with some many gems!!!! Thank you so much Professor for continuously and tirelessly spreading the great teachings of Prof. Vee. Many many peace and blessings to you and my distant Vee-Jujitsu brothers and sisters out there on the east coast!!!! Watch you back OUS!!!
The element of surprise always works well. Keep up the excellent work. I've been sharing your videos with a specific individual who owns his own Executive Security Agency, and he loves it.
As always, thank you Professor James and Sifu Kenny for bringing real martial arts content. I been in the martial arts for over 20 years and I find it refreshing that you are bringing reality based training. You are right. Keep it simple. Self preservation, self offense. Keep posting your content. Bows and Respects Gentleman...
OMG is all I have to say. no it's not! that grab the collar maneuver from the touch, touch movement blew my mind; I totally didn't think of that. Awesome!
Wow sad situation.... When you show video clips and break them down it makes your lessons very real. Super helpful. Thank you for your passion Professor. You have really made me aware of the deadly consequesnces of not taking action as soon as things start. I dont fear that I dont know how to handle a situation (You are teaching us well), I dont fear that I will make a wrong move, I dont fear I will lose an encounter. I fear I will do exactly what this guy did and try to negotiate too long and give someone capable and intent on cold blooded murder the confidence and opportunity they need. Hesitation is so deadly. P.S In the future could you please do a lesson on taking action but not being fully committed to it. Like the saying "dont slap a killer". Meaning if you decide to go you must go all the way and illiminate the threat - not do some half hearted move and then stop. Only going half way is very dangerous because now you have escalated the siuation but stopped and just pissed off the assailant making things much worse. I fear doing this too. Thank you guys, Osu!
So true Professor Dave, great vids, excellent words. You definitely tell the truth. We all appreciate your time and energy producing these awesome vids. Thank you to you both, you and Shihan Kenny, for all these vids. Peace.
WOW! You hit hard with your philosophy and experience. And that tragic video--validates you louder than your yelling, 'pay attention '!!! Stay Righteous
What true real world defense is as opposed to a martial artist drill What I honestly thought was He was setting up that knife attacker up really well for a spin kick if he knew how to spend, kick him really good in the stomach And if you watch the video. He actually really does set him up perfectly for, a spinning backkick to the stomach But this video is saying that is something you have to practice for some years to use it in a real life situation! He is 100% right! The only way I knew how to do that was by practicing work like 5 years!!!! What this TH-cam channel teaches is wonderful defense. You can use in real Life for real people. Oh, who don't necessarily train in martial arts Hes teaching real people how to defend themselves for real dangerous situations. So they won't get killed on the street
You all have to get the Vic’s background, he WAS a social justice pacifist . I can’t get enough of his videos because they are realistic practical ways to stay alive
Like you said keep it simple When you talk about. Vision . Breathing. Balance. YOU ALSO MEAN PEOPLE WHO DOING SELF Defense. Not this blind them. Make it so they can't breath like knock out there wind Solar Plexthus And knock them off Balance sweet the leg after kicking Out the Knee Kicking the Balls like Your life depends on it. Oh BTW. Iam one of those average Joe's who wants to go Home. To His Family
I saw someone in the bronxe get stabbed on active self protection how would you defend against that situation because that guy tried to tackled him and got stabbed
Teacher: Once again you are 1000% right. About 30 years ago I was held up by 3 youthe with a gun. I surrendered my wallet and the ran. I don't think that wukd happen in todays crazy world.Anyway, I had about 30 seconds to act before they showed the gun. I was scared and I hesitated. That hesitation could have led to me getting hurt. So tou are right-- act, don't react.
"the big man would have been in trouble for defending against the small man" - We get what you really talking about, backed up by the fact his own women didn't back him up to police, and refused to identify the attacker, for the very same reasons. She contributed to the "lack of punishment" problem. Who knows how many more she has now indirectly hurt.
Best to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war!!
Be prepared!!!
No one can deny this man’s passion. Thank you Professor.

Truly Blessed to have these two guys willing to share valuable insight. The principles brought forth are "on point".

It's very important to beware of mentally disturbed/unstable people.
I'm saddened to see how that man was stabbed to death in front of his girl. Everyone feels this loss of a life that results from this altercation. Seeing how this unfolded pushes me to train more with my wife and reinforce my code for "it's time to go!" If that man had an ounce of a self-defense technique maybe he would still be alive.

I am going to get there to train with you.

I love u
My instructors taught me when somebody approaches aggressively get close to them. He never would have been able to pull that knife.
That was tragic, This culture has terminal cancer. Thank you for your expertise.
Teacher: Once again you are 1000% right. About 30 years ago I was held up by 3 youthe with a gun. I surrendered my wallet and the ran. I don't think that wukd happen in todays crazy world.Anyway, I had about 30 seconds to act before they showed the gun. I was scared and I hesitated. That hesitation could have led to me getting hurt. So tou are right-- act, don't react.
Striking from the closest point.
😃😀👍👍
