Reviewer: mahadhir mohd (singapore, singapore)

I really love the first strike dvd because the techniques are simple and practical for the real world. Sammy teaches the right way to strike first and do it effectively. The dvd also cover the right tools for the first strike, and the most I like about the dvd, it include bonus clips of sammy conducting his first strike seminar. Great dvd two thumbs up!

Reviewer: Bijeet Dharadhar (Melbourne, Victoria)

First Strike is very helpful for any beginner especially who want to learn the art of self defense in the most easy way, it is very simple to understand and use. The potential offender won't know what's coming. I am very happy to have purchased this one and more to come for sure.

Reviewer: Roger Cormier (Northbridge, MA)

I just finished watching the First Strike DVD and was blown away by the content. This DVD was everything I thought it would be and more. I wish I had heard about Sammy Franco years ago. I'm sold...just can't figure out what to buy next with so many choices?

Reviewer: RON (haifa, Israel, )

Great companion to the "In Your Face" dvd. First Strike teaches simple yet very effective tools to stop and surprise a violent attacker. This dvd also has violent scenario performances by Sammy Franco himself showing you how it really should be done.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 First Strike (DVD), 5.12.2010
Reviewer: Alex (Melbourne , Victoria Australia)

What to do if you exhausted all resources to calm down your opponent but fight is inevitable? Turn it to your advantage and strike first. This DVD will teach you great technique of the first strike. It will show you kicks and punches appropriate for this particular situation; how to use your fingers, palms, elbows… What to do next. Great! Highly recommended.

Reviewer: Dal Polunic (Toronto, Ontario Canada)

If you don't know anything about defending yourself then FIRST STRIKE will show you everything to stun an attacker and avoid a full blown fight. If you are a student of martial arts then try to forget everything you've learned and get back to basics with FIRST STRIKE.

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 One of the best!, 3.26.2010
Reviewer: Adrian Ishmael (Toronto, Ontario Canada)

This is one of the best DVD's I have viewed and I grow more CONFIDENT the more I watch it. This is the Martial Arts of the future! The techniques are approachable and very effective as well as POWERFUL! This DVD can turn you into a very secure and well equipped fighter when you are out there on the streets. The teachings in First Strike can literally "Bail You Out" when you are in a dangerous situation when you have no choice but to make the first move. I have to say that after watching this great DVD... I feel transformed!

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Great DVD, 11.30.2009
Reviewer: Danny (Mayaguez Puerto Rico, )

Great DVD for offensive skills! The part that I liked the most was the strategic hand position because I didn't know that it was the best technique that you can have to get the upper hand. Thank you Mr. Franco for letting us learn more about street self-defense!

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 First Strike, 4.13.2009
Reviewer: michael kaspian (Portola, CA US, )

Thank you Mr. Franco for having the guts to say it like it is! Strike first and with some authority and you have a greater chance of surviving a violent encounter. I love the fact that the tool for delivery is the de-escalation stance! Forget self defense-blast 'em!

 

5 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 55 out of 5 Comprehensive, 4.9.2009
Reviewer: Zeker (Bay Area, CA, )

Straight and to the point. You are not left having any questions after viewing this DVD in regards to the first strike. This will give you insight into the realm of dealing with confrontations. And when defending yourself preemptively is justified, a well thought out approach to apply it.
