5.0 out of 5 stars Great Hapkido DVD Self-Defense Instruction!, March 26, 2004

By	George Zoerb (Vermont) - See all my reviews

This is a great 3 DVD set on Korean Hapkido Self-Defense techniques. With over 3 hours of instruction I was amazed at the amount of material covered in each of the 3 Volumes. Hapkido Master Steve Sexton is a very impressive expert who defintely knows his stuff. His teaching style is easy to understaand and my friends and I were able to pick up the techniques very quickly while watching the DVDs. As a professional bouncer Master Sexton definetly talks from experience as to what Hapkido techniques work in life or death self-defense situations. There is no BS and the techniques are all hard core and explosive. If you want effective self-defense against every type of street attack then this a steal. Having purchased other tapes on Hapkido and various other martial arts this is by far the best in content and value. The production quality is high and with over 3 hours of Hapkido lessons this 3 DVD set definetly gives the best value for your buck!

5.0 out of 5 stars Master Sexton Delivers!, August 19, 2004

By	Van Gordy (Honolulu, HI) - See all my reviews

This DVD is the real deal and a super buy. No unrealistic BS techniques just hardcore Hapkido take no prisoners street fighting self-defense that works. With over 3 hours of lessons I watch it daily and learn more with each viewing. Compared to other tapes I have by other so called Hapkido Grand Masters, Master Sexton would make many of these clowns cry like Babies in a real life or death all out street fight. As a former Navy Seal I can honestly tell you Master Sexton deals with reality combat not fantasy martial arts.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great DVD , April 22, 2005

By	Mark (Toronto, Ontario) - See all my reviews

Although a black belt in karate, I've always had an interest in some of the other martial arts disciplines.

After watching this great tape, I actually feel like going out and looking for a good hapkido school to study at. This is an outstanding series of tapes and I just know they are going to get alot of viewings in the future.

Steve "Roadhouse" Sexson is not only a great martial artist, but he's also a very good teacher as well. There are dozens and dozens of techniques demonstrated in these 3 dvds and Steve will walk you through each technique several times so that the technique really has a chance to sink in. And while I was impressed with the technique being shown slowly on a step-by-step basis, the effectiveness of the technique really becomes apparent when Steve demonstrates it at a real speed.

There are some very wicked and deadly looking choke and joint locking techniques outlined on these dvds. I am going to make it a point to "cherry pick" a few and incorporate them in my own martial arts training

If you have even a passing interest in the martial arts - or are seeking to learn a few self defense techniques - I can't think of too many sources that I would recommend higher than these dvds.

And the fact that Steve actually incorporates these techniques in his day-to-day job as a bouncer certainly provides him with a degree of credibility that may not be possessed by a martial arts movie star..!
