DVD Reviews of Solo Training

DVD Review: Good learning DVD
Summary: 5 Stars

This dvd is more about practical fighting than any actual style. If you are wanting to learn self defense in realistic situations then this dvd will get you started with a foot in the right direction.

DVD Review: Great!
Summary: 5 Stars

This DVD is great! There's a lot of instruction and explanation to make it clear and understandable. I am able to pause the DVD, practice, go back to make sure I'm doing it correctly, listen to the instructions, and practice again. I like it because so many other videos the instructor does it all and doesn't explain it very much so I end up just watching it like a movie. In this video, Loren Christensen is very knowledgable and I can tell by his explanations if I'm doing it right or not. It's a great video where I practice on my own and not have to wait for a partner. I'm a big fan of Loren Christensen and I like everything he does! I recommend it!

DVD Review: Poor Quality DVD
Summary: 2 Stars

Having purchased his other book on Speed Training, I was eagerly awaiting this DVD.

Well it was quite a disappointment. For the quality of the video and instruction, I was better off using YouTube. The video was very poor in showing the techniques, did not show different angles and at times when the female instructor was on the video you could not even see some of the moves. If you are a Christensen groupie then you should buy it. If you plan on using this as a part of solo training, once again you will find better for free off the internet and YouTube.

Very disappointing.

DVD Review: Solo Training
Summary: 4 Stars

This gives some very good training and faux attacks to practice on. I like the video very much.

DVD Review: Good to learn some new concepts but ....
Summary: 3 Stars

First of all the positives:

1. This is the only kickboxing DVD I have seen which helps you apply your knowledge in potentially challenging situations.
2. The instructor is very knowledgeable. He comes across as very genuine - that is something that makes the video good to watch.

However:

1. This is a poorly produced video. There is just too much talk and there are no routines that you can follow with the instructor on the screen. You are supposed to watch learn and follow on your own.
It still makes the DVD useful- it is just that it makes it tough to follow.
2. The other issue is that my DVD jumps around and skips material - I am yet to check it on another player.
