1 out of 5 stars Big dissapointment!.......2006-09-04

I typically don't write negative reviews, even if I feel that the product I bought is substandard. However, I was so dissapointed that I had to share my experience to prevent others from falling in the same trap. I made the mistake of buying the entire kickboxing series (3 DVDs), thinking that I could get a jumpstart in my kickboxing training with these DVDs. To my surprise, all 3 DVDs in the series do NOT have any audible explanations of the techniques/moves contained in the video, making this DVD impossible to follow and a huge waste of time and money.

Thinking that I may have obtained a "bad" DVD series, I've been calling the distributor for assistance, but not surprisingly, I can only reach the sales department (instead of customer support) and no one seems to be able to help me.

My last resort was to put a complaint with my credit card and see if I can get my money back so I can close this horrible chapter. Please do yourself a favor and DON'T order this product!!

4 out of 5 stars This is the last volume of a good 3 volume video instruction series on Kickboxing........2006-07-20

This is the third and last volume of a Three volume series on kickboxing by Hector Echavarria.

Hector Echavarria is a former champion of the U.S. Karate Association and the American Karate Association and a Vale Tudo Kickboxing Champion.

In this volume Hector Echavarria demonstrates combinations of punches and kicks, advanced kick techniques, various defense techniques against kicks from an opponent: trapping opponent's kick, sweeping the opponent's kick, using distance or proximity to opponent as defense against kicks.

Hector demonstrates how to create openings in the opponent's defense by using fakes, feints, and opponent's expectation of your next move.

This video instruction on kickboxing is 55 minutes long.

All 3 videos of the series contain good information and demonstrations. Some techniques require close attention.

If you have read the series of books on Bruce Lee's fighting method, you will be more likely to notice some of the more subtle techniques that you might not otherwise notice. You can read about such techniques in those books. In this instructional video series you can see some of them demonstrated.
