02:41Hi, I'm Gary Costanza.
02:43It was once said that battle is in the eye of the beholder, and you must become the general
02:47of that battle.
02:48I hope that the techniques that you get from the tape series will help you reach that goal.
02:51Enjoy and good luck.
03:03On this tape here, throwing techniques, we're going to be emphasizing to unbalance your opponent.
03:10If Sean comes over and pushes at me, I want you to remember when an opponent pushes, you
03:15must pull.
03:17If they pull, you push.
03:20Now, very important to remember that basic philosophy.
03:23I'll go over it again.
03:24It's so simple that sometimes, you know, we go by it quickly.
03:27If a person pushes at you, pull them.
03:31If they pull you, push them.
03:34And think of it as how a car would be driving.
03:37If he pushes at five miles an hour, pull him at ten.
03:42If he pulls you at five miles an hour, push him at ten.
03:46How that works in the philosophy of the judo is that if I'm four units of strength and
03:51he's ten units of strength, when he pushes at me, I am now still four units of strength
03:56because I'm in balance.
03:57He is less than four units of strength.
03:59Now I'm the stronger.
04:01So, always remembering, I'm going to try to unbalance him.
04:05Kazushi means to unbalance.
04:07And there's different ways.
04:08Any time you get a person on his feet, off of his toes, any direction, corner, corner,
04:17corner, corner, side, and side.
04:22If you can get this person to go, direct him, then at that point you can manipulate
04:27him.
04:27I'll give you an example of that.
04:31When Sean goes to push at me, I'm going to pull.
04:35Now if you notice, I could probably throw Sean with just the pull.
04:38I'm going to take him, and I could throw him.
04:42Very easily done.
04:43It's not fancy.
04:45It's very basic.
04:46It could save your life.
04:47Now what I'm going to do, I'm going to add, if you notice, my left foot will be blocking
04:52Sean's right shin.
04:54He's going to come forward.
04:55I'm going to push.
04:56As he pushes, I will pull, pull, pull until he trips over my foot.
05:02Now we'll try that in fast speed.
05:21And this technique, Sean's going to be coming with a right hook punch to the head.
05:26And like a lot of our techniques we've done so far, I'm going to lead his momentum forward.
05:32I'm going to grab his right hand with my left hand.
05:36Again, I'm going to go over the top, continuing his motion so he falls hopefully over my leg
05:45or hip or both.
05:47Watch for this angle again.
05:48This seems to be the better side here.
05:50We're going to go, pull, over the top.
05:55Now what I'm doing here, he has no way can he punch me with this hand.
06:01Because what's going to happen, this hand flies back behind him as I torque his body.
06:06That hand goes away from me.
06:11So a lot of times we do seminars and different things like this.
06:13People are always saying the what ifs.
06:15There are no what ifs at this point.
06:16Because I'm not allowing him to strike me with this hand.
06:23Slow motion, the turn, other side.
06:35One more time on this side here.
06:37Now if you watch, we'll speed it up full power.
06:42Full power on this side.
07:03Full power on this side.
07:05Three, two, three, four, four, five, five, five, six, six, six, seven, five, six, six, seven,
08:01And this technique, Sean's going to be throwing another right hand
08:03and hook punch.
08:05Again, you notice the similarity of these techniques all the time.
08:09The basic thing that I want to always do is to be able to glide,
08:13guide him, pull him off balance into whatever throw
08:16that I may do against him.
08:18I'm going to pull.
08:20At this point here, my right arm is going to go inside
08:24and do a strike to the groin area.
08:28I'm going to go under Sean at this point.
08:32The strike and the pull.
08:35If you watch, again, a backhanded slap to the groin.
08:45What that's going to do is give me a distraction technique long enough
08:49to insert for my final part of my throw.
08:51So it starts again, strike.
08:55From the strike of the groin, I'm in a perfect position to go under him to lift.
09:06Again, strike and pull under and throwing him in a position on his back for the throw.
09:16From this side here, slow motion.
09:21The strike, right hand hits the groin, distracts him long enough so I can go under, lifting,
09:32and the throw.
09:34Full power.
09:39The strike, right hand hits the groin.
09:39The strike, right hand hits the groin.
09:40The strike, right hand hits the groin.
09:56The strike, right hand hits the groin.
09:56The strike, right hand hits the groin.
09:57The strike, right hand hits the groin.
09:57The strike, right hand hits the groin.
09:57The strike, right hand hits the groin.
09:59The strike, right hand hits the groin.
10:00The strike, right hand hits the groin.
10:01The strike, right hand hits the groin.
10:02The strike, right hand hits the groin.
10:19Yes, yes, what's up?
10:50In this technique, Sean's going to be doing a running two-handed push again.
10:56Now what I'm doing, I'm going to grab and pull him with two hands.
11:03Now that alone can throw him if I do it quick enough.
11:10That could be a technique by itself.
11:12In this position here, we'll come back to this side, so you can see the foot.
11:17My left leg now will be blocking his right ankle, his shin.
11:22As he comes in, we try to hold, hold, hold that for him.
11:31Concentrating on keeping my leg straight and stiff and moving out of the way.
11:36Moving out of the way so he trips over the leg.
11:41Now if you notice when we put them together, it's critical, again, as he pushes, I pull.
11:49And if he pushes, I pull and block at the same time.
11:56Full power.
12:06Full power this side.
12:10One more on this side.
12:11low Greg.
12:14And if you notice, make your leg straight and getting more stuck on that side.
12:30Then beat me down, it's too late.
12:31Hey, man.
12:31That's good.
12:45That's it!
12:47That's it!
13:03That's it!
13:13And this technique here, when Sean comes in to do a chest push one-handed,
13:17you're going to notice that I'm probably going to do the most,
13:20probably Aikido type of flowing technique that we've done so far.
13:25All styles are good.
13:26There's nothing wrong with any other style.
13:28What we've done, we've tried to combine the best,
13:30the most effective that we can do.
13:32It's the person performing the style that counts.
13:34All styles are good.
13:36He's going to come in with a chest push.
13:38I'm going to lead Sean through that chest push,
13:43continuing now a larger circle, more momentum,
13:47less chance of Sean to be able to defend against that.
13:51I'm going to do a stronger torque in my body, actually race him.
13:57What we teach, especially against anybody ever pushing or pulling at you,
14:03if he comes at five miles an hour, I run at 10 miles an hour.
14:10I want to be ahead of him.
14:12It's like a car going out of control.
14:15He comes to push.
14:16I pull.
14:18Now, when I reverse the direction, this wrist can snap in mid-air before he's even thrown to the ground.
14:26If the technique is done right, the action in the body weight cannot reverse it as fast as I can.
14:33So if you notice, then we'll take it from the other side.
14:36I pull.
14:38And I'm going to reverse.
14:40From this side, coming back this way.
14:43I pull.
14:45I reverse.
14:47Full power.
14:48Higher four.
14:50Side.
14:53Side.
14:58Your five are different.
15:03Side.
15:16Hey.
15:17Other side.
15:20Other side.
15:25Hey, hey, that's Alice!
15:43See, hey, that's Alice!
15:45Hey, that's Alice!
15:52Other side.
15:53Hey, that's Alice!
16:10See, hey, that's Alice!
16:14Other side.
16:32And this technique, Sean's going to be coming up with a two-handed choke.
16:36In this position here, what we teach is this.
16:39When a person's grabbing you with his hands, his weapons are tied up, yours are free.
16:46He grabs, so you can always strike, strike, rake, punch, knee.
16:55Those are your options for a quick release.
16:57What we're doing here, his weapons are tied.
17:00I'm going to step back and actually peel the hands off at that point.
17:05He grabs.
17:06I grab his wrist.
17:09I'm going to turn Sean's body in a motion like this and crisscross his arms.
17:18He's going to grab.
17:21I take the wrist off.
17:23I step forward with the right leg.
17:25And insert my right hip underneath his center of gravity.
17:29He grabs.
17:33Pull.
17:34Hip.
17:37Over.
17:39This side.
17:41Two-handed choke.
17:44Pull.
17:46Hip.
17:48Hip.
17:52Hip.
17:52Hip.
17:56Hip.
17:57Hip.
17:57Hip.
18:02Hip.
18:03Hip.
18:03Hip.
18:03Hip.
18:03Hip.
18:04Hip.
18:04Hip.
18:04Hip.
18:04Hip.
18:05Hip.
18:06Hip.
18:06Hip. Hip.
18:26Yes!
18:26Yes!
18:27See!
18:27I saw ya!
18:47Yes!
18:48See!
18:48Asha!
18:53Yes!
18:54Asha!
19:11Asha!
19:37Okay, in this technique, Sean's going to be doing a running straight punch.
19:42What I'm going to be doing here, we're going to be going back to the trapping hands, putt,
19:47brush, hold.
19:49Now, instead of a strike at this point, I'm going to lead him.
19:55My left hand goes to the back of his neck, again, his momentum is going forward.
20:05So what we have here, we have a trapping hand technique using the Filipino arts.
20:10We have an Aikido type of principle of leading him and reversing the direction with a clothesline.
20:19Slow motion.
20:26This side.
20:36Now, if you see, trap hand, body out of the way, leading the head.
20:42And you have to have a strong pull with the neck.
20:45Without that, you won't get the misdirection for the clothesline.
20:50full power.
20:53Yes.
20:54Yes.
21:01Yes.
21:19Yes.
21:19Yes.
21:26Yes.
21:27Yes.
21:44Yes.
21:45Yes.
21:46Yes.
21:51Yes.
21:52The other.
22:09Yeah.
22:10Yes.
22:10Yes.
22:10Yes.
22:27OK, in this particular technique here, Sean's going to be throwing a right-handed hook punch
22:30again.
22:31Now the difference at this point is that you're going to notice that instead of blocking and
22:36pulling with one arm, I'm going to be grabbing with two arms now, two-arm pull.
22:45During that two-arm pull, my body will shift and I'm going to take Sean just over the hip
22:51at that point.
22:54As the punch comes in, in the hip, and when it's done quickly, I'll pull him actually to
23:01me at a greater speed so his body will be lined up in such a way that he'll just kind
23:07of like
23:07a focal point, we'll go over quickly.
23:09So in slow motion, other side, you can see from here, the right hip against his right hip.
23:23He'll be able to get him.
23:24Full power.
23:26Lisa.
23:28Lisa.
23:30Lisa.
23:34Is anyone on this side?
23:37Lisa.
23:38Lisa.
23:39Lisa.
23:40Lisa.
23:41Lisa.
23:42Lisa.
23:42Lisa.
23:43Lisa.
23:44Lisa.
23:53What's up?
23:57One this side.
24:11One this side.
24:17One this side.
24:21One this side.
24:43One on this side.
24:58In this technique here, Sean's going to be doing another tackle type of technique, but
25:02in this position, he's already grabbed me.
25:05If you notice from before, we did a couple options here.
25:08We stopped the power at source before it got on me, and we also took the one where we grabbed
25:16the head and took the arm up.
25:17This one here, we're assuming that Sean has already grabbed me, so you have to go into
25:21another type of technique.
25:23Comes in, you're grabbed at this point.
25:26Now you're going to be knocked back because you've been late.
25:30As I go down, again, I'm going to sacrifice my body to continue his throw.
25:35My left leg will go between his, as he grabs, and I go down, the left leg goes between his
25:44two legs, and he's thrown on his back.
25:49This angle, if you watch the left leg go between his, he comes in for the tackle, I'm grabbed.
25:57Left leg inserts as I go down with Sean for the throw.
26:05Full power, full speed at the side.
26:08Right leg a 7,90 foot and hit first, I split the ground up and fall down.
26:41Oh yes!
26:42Oh yes!
26:44Oh yes!
27:22All right, sir
27:25I
27:26Oh, yes, I said
27:46If this technique here, Sean's going to be throwing another right-handed hook punch
27:50Our last throw, I came in with two hands and threw them off the hip
27:55This one here, I'm going to grab, continue the circle
28:03Over, could have an elbow break
28:07And the throw
28:09Again, if you watch
28:11The big point to remember is I'm making a circle
28:13I'm continuing Sean's power here
28:17I'm taking it around
28:19Up
28:21Over
28:22Possible elbow break
28:25One more time slow
28:26I'm going to try it from this side so you can see it or not
28:31Punch comes in
28:33I grab
28:34Continue the circle
28:36Over for the throw
28:40Full power
28:41This is the first sight
28:46This is the first sight
28:47Wait, us, we have...
28:54What's the second sight
28:57You see, it's the second sight
28:58See you
29:02What's the third sight
29:10Math
29:21.
29:21.
29:21.
29:21.
29:22To Oishas!
29:29Oishas?
29:30Oishas!
29:31It's a-
29:31Oishas!
29:32Oishas!

30:12Oishas!
30:13Oishas!
30:19Oishas!
30:27I don't know.
30:51And this particular technique here, Sean's going to be throwing two punches, one with
30:55his right arm, one with his left arm.
30:59At this point here, I kneel, I keep, now remember I blocked right, left, left, back
31:07and hand goes against his left shin, and my pull continues here.
31:12So it goes, one black, two black, lift and pull, to the throw, again slow motion, right
31:28hand, ridge hand black, against the forearm, left hand black, to the ankle, at this point
31:38here, ankle and pull, continue it, over for the throw, full speed.
31:51Wait sir.
31:53Wait sir.
31:57Wait sir.
31:59Wait sir.
32:20Aes, Aes, Aes!
32:25Aes, Aes, Aes!

33:28Assay!
33:33In this technique, Sean's going to be coming up to grab on the lapel with his left hand.
33:38Prior to him throwing the punch with his right, I'm going to step back in a horse type of
33:44position.
33:44Now, you notice the strength.
33:46This position here, if you're facing a horse position, facing me, just a horse position
33:51here, you're weak from this position.
33:54But a horse position, going sideways, is very strong.
33:59So when I step back, as Sean grabs on the lapel, I'm going to grab his wrist, striking the forearm,
34:08taking him down on his back.
34:11At this point, you have your controlling technique with your wrist.
34:18Watching again, slow motion.
34:20He grabs before you see something coming.
34:23You're stepping back, striking the forearm to the throw.
34:29When it's done in fast motion, you see the sequence.
34:36Other side.
34:53Other side.
34:56Other side.
35:00Other side.
35:03Other side.

35:53Other side.
36:00Other side.
36:00Other side.
36:00Other side.
36:12And this technique here, Sean's going to be doing a double hand lapel grab versus the last one,
36:17which was a single.
36:17And the double lapel grab.
36:20And the double lapel grab, I'm going to take his left elbow, pull strongly with my left hand.
36:24From here.
36:26Pull strong.
36:28My fingers go underneath the nostril with a push and pull.
36:34Goes in for the throw.
36:35From this angle.
36:38Two-handed lapel grab.
36:41Pulling across the body, which makes his feet start to come this way.
36:45Pain compliance on the nostrils.
36:49To the takedown.
36:53Now remember the adage with this is to try to do this quick.
36:58Push and pull.
36:59Feet cannot catch up.
37:01The higher his feet will go once they do this together.
37:03He grabs.
37:04Full power.
37:06Feet.
37:13Feet off.
37:14The higher his feet.
38:22In this technique, we're going back to Sean coming in with a hip throw.
38:28When he comes in with a major hip throw, Ogoshi, what I'm going to do with this is as he
38:33comes
38:33in, I must meet him with my hip in order to raise him.
38:37The higher I get him up in the air, the easier it is for me to throw him right down
38:40on his
38:40back.
38:41So if you watch how I enter, first you'll see how the hips meet on the hip.
38:47Now you'll see the lift.
38:52Lift one more time.
38:57Now we'll try the throw.
38:59When I get him to that height, he goes down on his back.
39:10Lift one more time.
39:13Lift one more time.
39:14Lift one more time.
39:15Lift one more time.
39:15Lift one more time.
39:18Lift one more time.
39:19Lift one more time.
39:22Lift one more time.
39:23Lift one more time.
39:27Lift one more time.
39:29Lift one more time.
39:30What is the answer?
39:38What is the answer?
39:40What is the answer?
40:05That's right
40:07What is the answer?
40:10What is the answer?
40:10What is the answer?
40:25What is the answer?
40:48Sean is going to be coming in with another hip throw, same side, same position, same
40:54theory of the hip meaning the hip and the lift. Now what you have to remember is to come
40:59in low and bend the knees so I can lift. Now instead of dropping him straight on his back,
41:06if you remember one of our previous techniques against the hip throw, when I came here and
41:11beat his throw with my own same throw. What I'm going to do now is switch on him. I will
41:18lift him as he comes in. In the mid air, I will switch and throw him on the same throw.
41:26Do a full out.
41:27You are the king!
41:35You are the king!
41:37You are the king!
47:35In this technique, Sean's going to coming in with a grab followed by a right-hand hook punch
47:39again.
47:40Now, what we're going to do here, you've seen all the different types of things we can.
47:44We try to hit the very broad range of techniques for you to choose from.
47:49Sometimes you're going to throw him, sometimes you're going to block and throw whatever.
47:51Our final thing we have to do is that your assailant must be on his back and you have
47:54to go home.
47:55He's going to be grabbing me.
47:57I'm going to block just inside the top of the shoulders, his deltroid, stopping that
48:07punch so it can't reach me any further here versus this kind of a punch block or this
48:11block.
48:12I'm just going to insert the thumb, first finger, and meet it, okay?
48:18So in this technique here, he's going to grab.
48:21I meet the block or I meet the strike at this point.
48:24Now what I'm going to do, I'm going to sacrifice my body, torquing to my left.
48:28This side of the camera here, you'll see this end, then we'll switch it for this side on
48:32this side.
48:32What we're going to do here, again, he grabs, I block, I throw.
48:42This side, he grabs, I block, I throw, full power, and shall I let you go?
48:55This side, he grabs, he grabs, you're a hammer, and shall I let you go?
49:24Yes.
49:25Yes.
49:26Yes.
49:31Yes.
49:32Yes.
49:52Yes
49:54Yes
49:54Yes
49:55Yes
49:59Yes
50:00Yes
50:41And this technique here, Sean's going to come behind, tackle technique.
50:45What I'm going to do here, again, the power of the horse stance.
50:48If you notice when I'm going to step out, when he grabs, I go immediately into a horse stance.
50:52I take the knuckles of both hands, smashing the top of the bones on top of his hand here.
50:58Small bones, they break easily, they're causing a lot of pain.
51:01He grabs, horse, smack, smack.
51:05Elbow strikes down on both sides of his elbows.
51:08Stepping out, pain compliance.
51:12Elbow strike, elbow strike.
51:17Under the neck, up, over.
51:24Again, slow motion.
51:26He grabs me from behind, one, two.
51:31Elbows, turn, hand up high in a pain compliance position.
51:38Elbow strike, elbow strike.
51:42Switching under him, under his neck, throw.
51:50Full power.
51:53Full power.
52:17Press.
52:40Fly.
52:42Yeru.
52:43And then.
52:46I'm going to get a little bit of blood pressure,
52:47It's not bad.
54:31I hope you enjoyed this tape and you'll continue with the rest of the series.
54:34Remember, it's always too soon to quit.
54:36I want to give special thanks to my assistant, Sean Curran, and especially Panther Productions
54:41for the opportunity of being on with their company.
54:45What attracted me to most of the martial arts was probably the physical attraction of staying
54:50in shape.
54:51I always wanted to be into the health type of curriculum.
54:54And then after I was in it, of course, then I learned the whole scope of the program.
54:58What makes a good student to me is someone who has that drive, the will, to get knocked
55:03down seven times and get up eight and that they have to go after their highest potentials
55:08and reach it.
55:10A good instructor is somebody that I think draws out of the student the student's potential
55:15to excel.
55:16The training series on Panther Productions have given me an opportunity to take my style to
55:20the public so they can take some basic self-defense techniques as well as advance and incorporate
55:25it in their martial arts systems.
55:27The Zen Sakai Goshen Jutsu system was basically formed when a police officer student of mine
55:32asked us to do a defensive tactics seminar for his police department.
55:36Upon doing that, it took root in that we noticed that men who were looking for in close, close-range
55:42type of situations, basically dealing with the weapons of the 90s, guns, knives, clubs,
55:48baseball bats, direct attacks, someone high on drugs, and the ability to incapacitate
55:53someone was really the conditioning of the program was for that reason.
55:58I see the future of the martial arts more than ever going back to basic self-defense so
56:04that people now with the crime rate the way it is, right now crime is the number one thing
56:08on anybody's mind, and there is a crime every two seconds in the United States, and I believe
56:13that now people, that is their priority.
56:15So now they're interested still in the Zen, they're interested still in the Doe, the Way,
56:20but they still want to stay traditional, which is great, but the bottom line now more than
56:25ever with sexual assaults against women and children in the United States, I think now
56:28it's, they must have the ability to defend themselves.
56:32My future goals is just to continue learning and being a teacher as well as a student.
56:37The person most responsible for the creation of my system was a person who encouraged me
56:41at the beginning when I was putting it together.
56:44Sometimes I questioned whether I was good enough to do it or whether I had enough technique
56:47to do it, his name is Jerry Bacillo, and Jerry is a very humble man who probably wouldn't
56:51want me to mention him, but I give credit to where it's due and I give thanks, and that's
56:55the man.
56:57My involvement with law enforcement started about 1987.
57:00We started teaching defensive tactics to police officers.
57:03It got to the point where it was not only enjoyable, but a great need for it.
57:08They have a couple weeks in the academy, they're never reviewed again, and chances are for
57:12police officers needing this on an everyday thing, especially with liability suits, it became critical
57:16and paramount that they knew how to do this in a structure that we're doing it now in Zen
57:19and my Zen Sakai system.
57:22One of the precepts of Ishma Karate, which is one of my traditional systems that we're
57:26trained in, unbalance is the same as weight, and I believe that you have to have that balance
57:30between your family and your career, and I believe that the balance that I've done with
57:33the physical end of my system is doing well, but without the love for my wife and my
57:37children, I know I could not have gotten to where I have now.
57:41My closing words for anybody, whether it's martial arts or whether it's life, your marriage,
57:45your job, it's always too soon to quit.
