The Paladin Podcast, Episode 13: Joseph Simonet

In 1999, master martial artist Joseph Simonet took the world by storm with his best-selling Mook Jong Slam Set video, teaching a style of dynamic wooden dummy training based on functional movement and explosive power, not martial arts dogma. With the use of the mook jong, you can train full speed and full force on a partner that won't complain, get injured or quit.

The newest video series by Paladin Press, The Art and Science of Mook Jong builds on that foundation of technique, taking your fighting skills to the next level and beyond. In the first volume, The Blade Set, Joseph prepares you for a real knife fight by teaching a short form on the dummy that burns in simultaneous block and attack moves to damage your attacker, cripple him, or end the fight once and for all. In volume two, The Club Set, Joseph teaches a hard-core, street ready fighting system using the club to finish your opponent without the complicated flow drills or finesse-filled techniques. Volume three, Slam Set Evolutions, Simonet teaches counter-grappling techniques designed to demolish a seasoned groundfighter; takedown defenses that will not only stun your opponent, but also set him up for a devastating throw; and an improved putar kepala throw guaranteed to both disorient and destroy an attacker.

To be a true martial artist, a true warrior, you need to refine your fighting skills to the highest level: The Art and Science of Mook Jong can put you on the path to combat excellence.

So listen along as we speak to Joseph about this incredible video series and what inspired him to release such great information to Paladin Press.
