TestimonialsSteve Maxwell 2x Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu World Champion Philadelphia, PA "Matt I just wanted to let you know that tapes 1 and 2 of the Farmer Burns series were excellent. All of my students really liked the techniques. At the last "Rage in the Cage" show here in Phoenix, my guys went 4-1. I don't know which pleased me more, the fact that they all did so well or that several of them pulled off moves from tape 2 that I had only just showed them the week before." Bill Cameron Phoenix, Arizona "I never wrestled in grade school, high school, or college. I don't know all the pins and fancy takedowns one learns over the years. However, thanks to Matt Furey, I am able to handle guys that have wrestled collegiately. I tried other grappling styles over the years, but there was always a lack of balance. One style was mostly on the feet, and the other mostly on the ground. Matt is emphatic about being able to fight on your feet AND on the ground. I now feel as comfortable standing up as I do rolling around on the mat. As a State Trooper, I find the techniques shown in the Farmer Burns course, and all his other tapes, to be of immense value in my quest to stay one up on the bad guys. If your job requires you to go in harm's way, or even if it doesn't, you would be well served to learn what Matt has to teach. It may save your life." James Truesdell Alaska "Hey Matt, I received my first two lessons from the Farmer Burns Video Course and am very pleased with the product. Awesome stuff! I like the way that it's set up, giving just the right amount of information to work on for the first 6 weeks. The concepts and techniques are exactly what you say they are: priceless. These videos kick ass! I'm more than happy that I "signed up" for the course. Also, while anxiously waiting for the Farmer's Video course I decided to break out the Street Grappling tapes and watch them for the 400th time. (slight exaggeration) I almost forgot how good those tapes are! I own quite a few tapes from a lot of the "big names" out there, and viewed them all with various wrestlers, judokas, and military elite. But when we've watched your tapes, they've all made comments like "Where did you get THIS set from?", "This is awesome", "That's what I want to learn!", and "Shut this tape off, put in those street grappling ones again". Just thought you might want to know this. Now that the Farmer's Video Course is receiving all the attention, I didn't want the Street Grappling tapes to feel left out!" Zack Ostiguy New Bedford, MA "Matt Furey is definitely the "Surgeon of Submission." What he teaches you won't find anywhere else. I weigh 340 pounds and squat 900. Matt is the only guy who ever took me down with a leg attack. What he did after that was brutal." Bud Jeffries - www.strongerman.com World's Strongest Man Lakeland, FL "I've got black belts in jiu-jitsu, kenpo, and aikido, and a few of the moves on the Street Grappling tapes were familiar, but the majority of them were not and ALL of them were truly useful. These tapes need to be in everyone's library! I know, I know; in the endorsements on the back of everything these days those words are used more than any other, but they are for real on these. If I could only have 5 martial arts training tapes to my name this set would be among those 5." Phil Buechner Redding, CA "Matt, If you have ever read the book raving fans by Ken Blanchard then you'll know you have one. I got the 1st two tapes of the Farmer Burns series ... great stuff. I am not a NHB fighter, not a fomer great collegegiate wrestler ... just a 42 year old guy who got back into judo after 20 years and just loves grappling for grappling sake. I have your "Street Grappling" series, the exercise tapes, the "How to Hook a Heavyweight" tape, your book and Farmer Burns' book, and a power wheel. Every penny well spent. The Farmer Burns tape was worth the half nelson submission alone. Thanks again for putting out quality stuff and having a no bullshit attitude." Douglas W. Borro Scotsdale, AZ "I've been involved in martial arts for more than 35 years and what Matt Furey has to teach will open your eyes and make you realize that there is a world of information inside of him that most people have no idea about. I recommend all of Matt's products because they've made a big difference in my training." John Saylor Shingitai JiuJitsu 3x National Judo Champion 2x Pan Am Medalist New Bedford, MA "Matt, I watched the 1st two installments of the Farmer Burns Videos and you have outdone yourself. These are fantastic. The Lesson 1 tape was a workout unto Itself. (I got up and did the tape this morning) I really liked the fact that you took the time to explain the program before you got started. the deep breathing actually woke me up and had me sweating before the 'physical' exercises began. "Now Tape 2 was the Bomb! I'll bet that 'Muhammad Stud' was very sore that night. I have no doubt that just the techniques shown just in tape 2 will result in a lot of pain for my training partners. I cannot wait for the rest of the series. My partners may not be speaking to me when this is finished, though. :-) Keep it up, Matt. I'm sure 'The Farmer' would be pleased." James Hudgens Cincinnati, OH "Fabulous. Now the classic teachings of Martin 'Farmer' Burns are available in modern video format. It's all here, the warmups, the setups, the holds, the escapes. There has never been anything like this before. A must have for any serious grappler." Dave Woynarowski, M.D. Reading, PA "Got the first of the FB course. I want to compliment you on it, it's really great. I've got 'training' tapes from other people that are full of fluff and little of substance. I can hardly wait to try the nelson series in my classes. Or for that matter any of the things in the first tape. I may get my brother to help me out on taping sessions at my house to send you." Warren Bailey Ward, AR "I am very happy with the Farmer Burns material. It is everything you said it would be in your weekly newsletter. Re: the deep breathing exercises: I've had some formal training in Chi Kung, and it was pretty cool to note that the sounds you made during the breathing exercises resembled both the 'ujjiyai' breathing technique from hatha yoga and the 'hehn/hah' vibrations that some Chi Kung adepts add to their sequences (only most Chi Kung types aren't audible when they do it). There really is nothing new under the sun, and it appears that the yogis and Shaolin monks didn't have a monopoly on health secrets. Best of luck with your ongoing endeavors...." Jim Boelter Omaha, NE "The thing that gets me is how simple and totally ass kicking these techniques are. After viewing the previous tapes I think to myself, "Now why didn't I think of that?" or "Damn that works." And the thing about it is almost nobody in today's grappling world sees these techniques coming. Again, thanks for putting yours and Karl Gotch's style of catchascatchcan on film and preserving it for those of us who want to learn." Drew Price Markedtree, AR "Dear Mr. Furey, I received your video tapes about 10 days ago and played them over and over and every time I was telling myself what difference it makes when the technique is right. It was after viewing your tape that I finally made a guy tap from a chancery and managed to lift an opponent from a double leg. The hammerlock was also great and my partner really felt it. You really blew my mind as how effective these techniques are when you know how to do them the right way." Charles Borg Malta "Matt, Any serious student of the grappling arts has got to get the Farmer Burns course. It has improved my submission skills 100 percent. I used the shoulder lock yesterday on one of our senior jujitsu black belts ... it was great when I pulled his arm in. He rolled a little toward me, then when I sat out and locked him he was like....what the hell was that !!! Thanks for teaching these techniques and strategies." Gene Silas "Hello Matt Furey, This is Timothy Favreau again. I just wanted you to know how great the 'Farmer Burns' series is. I used to take a judo class here in Cheyenne Wyoming because I wanted to learn a grappling art. I really had no idea what was out there at the time i just thought it was all freestyle wrerstling and judo and brazilian jujitsu. I really wasn't getting what i wanted out of judo it seemed all we did was practive throws. I know this is important to my grappling but we just didn't wrestle at all! After searching the internet a long couple of months I stumbled on to your web site. At the time you didn't offer the course but I liked what you had to say. Being in the the military I like a straight forward, no nonsense approach that you have when giving advice. When you offered the Farmer Burns course I snatched it up. I am only 4 tapes in to the series but my grappling has ex! ploded!! My buddy who works with me challenged me to a grappling match and I put him into the 3/4 neslon, put him on his back and necked cranked him!! He tapped and yelled!! He weighs about 225 and I only weigh 155 soaking wet!! The tapes and conditioning advice has given me a new found confidence in my self! Keep up the excellent work and I will always be a loyal customer!! Thanks," Timothy Favreau Airman First Class Cheyenne, WY "Dear Matt, Your Farmer Burns Video Course tapes are great! I've been watching my first two videos over and over and can't wait to see the third and fourth episodes! I can't wait for them to arrive." Andy Lewis, Liverpool, United Kingdom "Mr. Furey,I ordered your Farmer Burns video course a few months ago. The quality of your material is excellent." 1st Lt. Gregory Donahue 29 Palms, CA "Dear Matt, As you know, my wife gave me your Farmer Burns course for Christmas. I was bummed that those tapes existed and I did not have them. Earlier on I had hurt my left knee and this was very depressing. My grappling was stale and I was working way too hard to beat guys I shouldn't have that much trouble handling. I needed a shot of inspiration and some straight forward technique. You would think after buying so many of your products, attending your seminars and training with you in Tampa, it would be hard to still surprise me. Five minutes into the "first" tape, I am taking notes and rewinding it, laughing at every important detail I was missing. My wife was witnessing all this and commented that she is glad I am enjoying the "Farmer Burns" tapes when I told her that I have not gotten past the first tape yet because it was so damn good. This course is amazing and I am dedicating myself to using these tapes to redefine my grappling. Every investment in a Matt Furey product is worth every cent. How many things can you say that about in life?" Joel Pickering Philadelphia, PA "Dear Matt , last night I received my first package of the Farmer Burns Video Course. I must say I was most impressed with the books, which I read last night and this morning. About an hour ago I popped in the first tape (breathing and calisthenics) and watched it through. Again, I was very impressed, both with the content and the presentation. I'll be watching it again tonight to get a better feel for the exercises and to take notes, and then it will be time to get started. In Australia, I was a student at a Chinese boxing academy for six years, now I live in Japan, working as an English teacher. I've seen a few things over the years, and in my opinion, nothing has matched the fitness program (or the technique curriculum) from my old school, until now. The materials presented in your course are excellent, and will, I feel, help me to realize my potential, when combined with the curriculum I had previously followed. Again, a most deserving thankyou to you for making these materials available. Yours sincerely," Stuart Tilley system@autocontactor.com "Dear Matt , All i can say is WOW! I'm getting towards the end of your farmer burns series of tapes and i'm stuck for words. The amount of info on these tapes is massive! If i watch them for the next five years i think i'll still be missing details off them in my training, saying that, i can't wait to see what installments eleven and tweleve have in store! Thank you for making this incredible information available, the tapes are worth their weight in gold! For all those people who might think they are expensive, they really don't know what theyre missing. Thanks again Matt, sincerly." Andy Lewis Liverpool, England andylewisesq@hotmail.com "P.S. Little Frank might be the luckiest little wrestler in the having you as his old man, cheers Matt." "Dear Matt: I would like to take this opportunity to thank you once again for the quality of this course. Each tape seems better than the next (and that's really saying something). I haven't come across any "fluff" just pure no-nonsense technical wizardry. Unlike, all the other hyped-up garbage-filled tapes floating around the market, yours are the only ones with techniques and exercises which have helped me prevail consistently against much larger, stronger and heavier training partners. Technique + conditioning is most certainly king! Looking forward as always to my next installment." Luke Foster N. Ireland
