Meekness is not weakness. It is strength under control. Your lesson is a perfect example of this.

Don't let your ego put you in a grave or a prison cell Professor is correct , STAY HUMBLE

I've trained under some good people. You are legit brother, Love your videos. Need more guys like you out there teaching. Fight smart! defuse it, do not agrovate the situation or you're dead if hes got a hidden blade. Locked up if you get it wrong and go crazy. Be passive in your reaction unless you have to defend.💯🙏🇬🇧

I want to say thank you for the truth about learning how to not advance but wait on him.

THAT'S WHY I'M HERE, you teach Fast Attack!

Thank you so very much Professor James, I trained under Aaron Banks GoJu-Ryu, he was a wonderful man, and just like you he was very street centrist, he focused on defending yourself on the street. Unfortunately he passed away in 2004. You remind me so much of him. I would love buying your book, God bless you and everyone in your school who help's the everyday person defend themselves from all those crazies out there.

My guy that’s an attorney taught me how to talk with the hands with regard to backing up and holding up your hands in a non threatening position he says it speaks to the jury as to whom was the aggressor in the situation so to this I agree totally Great job sir🫡

Your video somehow came across my feed. So I start watching it and I understand what you are saying. I'm 63 trained half my life in multiple styles. I agree with you 100% always pull back and manipulate the situation to your advantage.

I trained in martial arts daily since I was 13 years old, and I still practice today at age 65. I was trained to be a warrior. I started off in the traditional Kobra Kai philosophy of "NO MERCY." As I got older, I learned the value of strength through being gentle and soft. A truly strong man is gentle. Only when there is no choice would I be aggressive. Much love to Professor David and Shihan Kenny

I trained under Ed Parker father founder of American Kenpo karate back in the 60s. I am now 77 years old and after watching these videos my interest is peaked once again. Thanks for the great information I’ll be a regular follower from now on.

Outstanding Life Saving Self Protection Techniques

Walk away if you can. However, you have the right to defend yourself if someone invades your personal space. KISS: keep it smart simple. I don’t have time to learn a million different kicks and complicated moves. Thank you coach.

I been watching you , for a year . And what I learned is extremely good .

Another no nonsense video --- much love and thank you.

I practice Shotokan for years now and what you are saying is a good complement to my practice. You are Totally right. This subject is never discussed by our teacher/sensei. We are very good atheletes, we respect the old masters and the discipline, we are strong and focus but we MUST'NT be crazy ! We MUST learn to Master our emotions ! Sad that I can not go to your gym. I live too far. Cheers. ;)

I love the energy , excitement to teach and passion in his trainings.

“Master your emotions”….A point that can’t be said enough. If not, can get you locked up or get you dead. Thanks again Professor….

Very very important information here! self defence is mindset not just a bunch of techniques. All instuctors should teach like this!

Professor David you keep it real. No bull 🐂.

This is true ... Professor David .. Master Your Emotions.

I love the videos! I don’t have balls of Steele but I’m getting smarter watching your videos. I’m understanding from you that your brain is your greatest weapon. Keep up the great work!

Ok, I'm starting to like his yelling as he starts teaching ! 👍

So this seems like pretty much everything. Awesome lesson. Black belt all the way from white belt.

Simply the very best instruction available on the web. Thank you Prof and Kenny.

This is so true Great lesson...it's self defense not self offense

Motion Causes Motion = Cause & Effect. These very principles stated by Prof. David have been around for 1000's of years. He is applying them in layman's terms for our better understanding in their relevancy to differing applications in self preservation. Once again, the Professor and Ken showcase their advanced wisdom as this comprehension and dissection takes much thought to discern and thus create a teachable moment. Appreciate and revel in their imparting of knowledge, for the message IS the lesson.. Spread the word. Ous.

Professor V EE, you are absolutely right… And I shared this with my son…

thanks for the insight greetings from the Switzerland s martial aris community please carry on 😊

The snake seeks the eye of the bird, and in that moment of looking each excepts the role of predator and prey . A proverb. I like your presentation.

The professor is right on everything he teaches and trains never let ur ego get in prison or worse

You guys are Awesome!! Definitely interested in training with you and the book!!

Awesome information as we have come to expect. Thank you very much 🎉

This guy can put his food order in at the drive thru intercom when he's still 10 miles away from the restaurant.

Think of your defense after the fight that come to you that you did not start but finished !...

Knowledge is power,... Christos Thessaloniki Greece

I have trained in other schools, but I haven't gotten the information right, and I have been following your videos, I am learning a lot more, and I from you and I respect you in your techniques then the 2 schools

Yes, Professor David James is the real deal. Reality base self-defense to bring you home in the event of a street situation.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

Prof and Kenny. Much love to you and your training

Thank You Professor 💪🏾

That is propably the most important lesson in combat. In my 7e grade of highschool a green belt in bjj was teaching a whole class of future safetyguys how to get in to knife attacks and how even to take over a gun. It looked really stupid howmany steps he was taking to manage that position. I asked my self what is worth risking your life so bad? Is it worth being the big hero against a weapon? NO is a clear answer to that. And learn to sell it says a lot about fight IQ. Why only 25k watches this. Idiots giving deadly advise be the hero when overpowered should be banned from teaching on any ocassion. Respect

Love Professor David and Kenny

Right on brother

😂You the man Professor V!..what's up Kenny?.. You guys are awesome! 👍👍🙏❗

Some of the best instructional teaching I have heard in years!! I need to move to Brooklyn! Excellent video! New subscriber.

Great advice, sir-

Thanks!

04:14 Kenny’s face when you didn’t let him grab the gun.

I love these videos and watch them all the time. I'm in Australia and I'd love to learn with you guys

I love this channel. You remind me of my sensei.

We like videos It's just kinda hard to enjoy if you're screaming in everyone I lose interest with the screaming. Yes you are a good teacher

good lesson, it is also said in the art of war...

If I only had you teaching me, when I was younger.

When I was a younger, and after years of training, I can't go first, your right, 9 times was going to jail, self defense kept me from going...

My Uncle & Cuzin taught me the same principles when they came home from Nam, Your reminder is a great benefit, Btw,,, they were from Brooklyn as well, i grew up in Spanish Harlem Thank You

I watched you and Professor Vee train as a kid.

The very best

yeah but how can I use those strikes if I am very short 5"2, do you have some kind of advices how to defend yourself against taller attacker

You are the real deal

Definitely Kung Fu Sansu techniques in there. New subscriber. Ty. What is your background in, besides just street fighting, if not too personal? Im a Moron. Says Jujitsu in the title. Lol

I CAN TYPE ALL MY B.S. BUT STILL LEARNING.

the size of that guys hands continues to freak me out

DAMN RIGHT....THEY TALK ABOUT BLACKO ON BLACK CRIME AND NEVER TALK ABOUT ANGER MANAGEMENT, EVER! THAT IS WHY WE DIE FROM HEART DISEASE CAUSE WE NEVER DEAL WITH ISSUE AND DONT KNOW HOW.

I've lived a fearful life. always afraid of fighting and street tuffs. Wish I would have mastered my fear at a younger age.

Awesome, I love this video. Watch it, share it. Txs

Common sense approach to defending yourself. You don’t have to be Bruce Lee to defend yourself. Common sense salute!🫡

Urban Combatives... nuff said

Gudjob

REALLY

jokes aside, great advice

"Master your emotion"
