I own literally hundreds of instructional tapes including Matt Furey's, the Gracies, Ken Shamrock's but Rich's tapes are a cut above and beyond the rest, that's why I chose Senshido among any other system to be certified in.

"Richard's book 'In Total Defense of the Self' is simply one of the best books I have ever read on self defense."

Excellent tapes Richard! Ive been training in the Martial Arts for 12+ years and have bought various videos and studied various systems. RAT system, Street safe and How to build a street fighter in 40hrs. And I found useful info in all of these videos but none as reality based as the Tactical Urban Combat Series, well done Richard. The information on these tapes is second to none and gave me a whole new outlook on realistic self-defense training. Thanks Richard for opening my eyes and changing my outlook on reallity based training.

Stay safe,
John

Rich,

Dude, awesome videos! I realy enjoyed watching them. I haven't even had a chance to watch #4 yet and I'm hooked. I've not seen a lot of tapes to know what is good and what is not. But of the ones I have seen... you have blown away the competition. You have set the bar very high for the others out there. Your tapes aren't even really 'instructional' videos. I would call them more along the lines of 'tactical guides'. (You know, I'm gonna have to copyright 'tactical guides'... LOL) Thanks again for the tapes. I hope to get the 2nd series soon.

From a self-defense tape junkie, (no joke, I had to cancel my VISA, MC cards because I was compulsively buying every new TRS or combative tape I read about) I finally watched the 1st 4 tapes of Rich's ongoing Tactical Urban Combat series. I HIGHLY recommend the TUCs to anyone interested in street survival, especially police and corrections officers! Rich is like the Tony Robbins of personal protection and he is very video friendly. Rich's TUCs are RIVETING and a PLEASURE to watch.

Thanks Richard the package arrived today. I'll be staying up late reading and re-reading the manuals. I've already read one & I'll read them all again and again. Amazing how each time I read through the first manual I garner some new realization. The seeds of information lacquered by studying & re-reading hopefully becoming pearls of knowledge and eventually wisdom & total understanding. A System constantly adapting to change. Great information and that along with relevant real world examples, either from the news or your own experiences, makes the material presented more cogent. Yet another stellar video : ) - What's coming out next?.........

Richard,

I just reviewed the four-part instructional video series and I kept saying to myself - finally, someone gets it. As you clearly emphasize throughout, a rehearsed or programmed response is destined to fail and I strongly agree. After only watching the tapes - understanding the components of communication and the strategy of verbal defusing, the 5 principles of physical retaliation, and holistic physical and emotional comprehension - I feel much more confident in my ability to defend my person. Thank you for cutting all the crap and providing the "final dip without the dance" so I am prepared if I am ever just one table away from a situation.

Regards, Dan Palfrey

Rich, I just viewed the TUC box set. On content the first thing that becomes apparent is that you are extremely knowledgable in the mental and psychological aspects of self defense. The ground portion of the set is worth the price of the tapes alone. The portion of constantly striving to go for the throat and eyes is spot perfect. I now see why Sammy Franco spoke so highly of Senshido. This is spot on and dynamite stuff. It's too bad that so few people understand what you and a few others advocate. You can add me to the list of very impressed customers. I'll be looking to get your ground tape and am really looking forward to your book. There is so much on this four tape set that I can't really do it justice on just a cursory review.

Your tapes have created quite a stir at the club, Rich. Four different guys have each taken a tape home for study. We viewed them as a group. Final analysis: 11 very big thumbs up. You've officially surpassed Blauer as the most popular study tapes. You are currently running neck and neck now with Vunak as the most popular tapes at the club to take home. I'll probably have to get the submission and rape tapes next. The club is clamouring for more. Great effort Rich.

Well guys I watched the TUC video tape set twice. Rich I especially loved the use of concepts throughout the video series. I will have to keep on watching a few more times. There is just so much information on these tapes, it is amazing! I love what you said, "Planning Fixates You and Preparation Allows Room For Change". Your tapes have allowed me to realize even more why the use of concepts are one of the true keys to real self defense. This allowed video students like myself to turn those concepts from short term memory into long term memory. Excellent Work To You Rich and Your Instructors!

"I just received the Tactical Urban Combat series volume 1 through 4. All I can say is WOW! I was amazed. I honestly thought they were going to be your standard instructional videos with good information on your system but I never imagined they would be so detailed. You have dissected the street fight like no one else has ever done, you've thought of things I don't think anyone else has ever thought of. Just when I seem to come up with a 'what if...' or a question, you answer it. You've left no stone unturned!"

"In a society where violence against women happens as often as once every 2 minutes, Senshido's Rape Prevention Program Tapes and Manual are your best defense."

Damn those TUC tapes are awesome. Just finished my first viewing of them and all I can say is, damn, they're one of the best tapes I've seen. The biggest thing that kept leaping out at me was Mr.Dimitri saying, "Don't memorize this,this is just where I'm at now." The principles taught and shown are the easiest to assimilate and blossom with even a small amount of training and playing. It's the best money I've spent in forever, and fits what I need and where my training is taking me.

I finally got the chance to look at the tape "On the cutting edge". I have to say that it covered everything that I had a problem with when I would do a knife drill. Rich, EXCELLENT JOB! One thing that I love about learning through tapes is that I can put you (Rich) on pause whenever I want (hehehe!) and take down notes. People... If you haven't bought the tapes "Submission Termination" and "On the Cutting Edge" yet...What are you waiting for? Get them now! I'm looking forward to the future tapes Rich!

Hi Richard,

I received the Senshido specials and just got back from watching the first two tapes of the TUC box set # 1. All I can say at this moment is that the stuff I have seen so far is just awesome. The reviews on the forum were absolutely right. It' s really great stuff and I' m glad I invested the money. Keep up the great work, it' s really appreciated. Thanks and all the best to you and the Senshido tribe.
