A Master of Okinawan Karate, A.J. Advincula

"He's 65 Years Old, Still Ripped to Shreds and Able to Kick Butt Anytime, Anywhere"

Here is the Uncensored True Story About An Okinawan Karate Master And How He Became a Legend

Dear Friend,

You've probably heard or at least seen some of those old Charles Atlas ads, the ones where a young 98-pound weakling got sand kicked in his face, then got a set of bulging muscles and returned with a vengeance. Well, almost the same story can be told of my Okinawan Karate Master. And it's all 100% true.

Let me tell you all about it, but first, imagine being a young "mixed breed" Filipino-American boy growing up in Alaska, in the 1940's. Not a good place to begin life, if you ask me. First off, you look different than everyone else. Second, you're naturally smaller and weaker than the others.

Now - let's take it a step further. Imagine being only eight years old when you are not just beat up by one person, but a group of bullies. They trail you after school, then jump you and steal the brand new cap and jacket your father had just bought you.

Well, that's what happened to Arcenio J. Advincula, my sensei - who I swear is no longer the little eight-year old weakling. He's quite literally the toughest man I have ever met.

How did he become that way? Good question.

When A.J. (that's what we call him for short) returned home and told his father about the humiliating incident that took place, his father hired some friends, who were hand-to-hand combat instructors for the Philippine Army. They began to train young A.J. in escrima and combat judo.

And this beginning set A.J. on a lifelong path to greatness in the martial arts.

But hold on. There's more.

In late November, 1958, on A.J.'s first tour of duty on Okinawa as a United States Marine, he saw a sign that announced "free Judo classes." He asked his NCO-IC about the class and was pointed in the direction of Tatsuo Shimabuku, the founder of Isshin-ryu Okinawan karate - a man that moved like lightning and struck like an earthquake.

To A.J.'s surprise - not to mention luck, the Okinawan master took him under his wing and began revealing to him all the "inside secrets" of karate that very, very few Western people know. As a result, A.J. became a lethal weapon, not only in martial arts - but on the battle field. And to this day he is called to teach the Marines and get them ready for combat. He is like a god to them.

But perhaps one of the most amazing things is that, even today, those who don't know A.J., think that because of his compact size and his Clark Kent style glasses - that he might just be your typical "nerd" pushover. What a drastic error in judgment these fools make. Anytime someone has gotten cocky with A.J. they quickly found out, to their embarrassment, that they just plugged in and turned on a human chainsaw.

Tatsuo testing Advincula 1963

"And now, after 55+ years in the martial arts, this Okinawan trained master has finally stepped forward to reveal the brutal and deadly secrets taught to him by his legendary instructor"

Tatsuo Shimabuku

When A.J. Advincula returned from Okinawa and retired after 25 loyal years in the United States Marine Corps he was prompted by friends and students to put down on tape the true essence of what he had learned on Okinawa from Grand Master Tatsuo Shimabuku, who is known as one of the top 10 all-time great karate masters - partly because of his precision-drilled technique, but also due to his amazing animal-like physical attributes. Tatsuo, for example, was able to drive 16-penny nails through a 2" by 4" with either his hands or his feet and did so without a pad or handkerchief. And get this. He generated this amazing internal power from his 5'2" and 120 pound body.

Anyway, despite a great deal of constant coaxing, A.J. always refused to put his information down on video for others to learn. As all truly great karate masters, they always see room for improvement. Then one day, after years of pleading, A.J. agreed to do it.

One weekend he assembled a few of his stellar students and put everything from this Isshin-ryu system on video and did so from multiple angles, at multiple speeds and from different directions. If he was going to do it, he was going to do it right - so he made these video first-class.

By the time these videos were made, everyone already knew who A.J. was. This was because he had a top-flight dojo in California, where he trained himself and a few select top students who met with him, religiously, every night for over 3 hours. A.J. also coached several members of the San Diego Chargers NFL football team and was even featured on the covers of Black Belt and Inside Kung Fu. These issues are literal collector's items in the Okinawan karate community and were big-time best-sellers! Adding to all this acclaim was the fact that Black Belt awarded A.J. their 1987 Instructor of the Year. This led to an onslaught of worldwide seminars.

Even so - A.J.'s videos - over 30 hours of footage, were hidden away and not made available to the public. But now, he finally agreed to let us edit them for him - and the information is finally available - but at A.J.'s request, only for a limited time.

Why the change of heart?

Another good question, here's the answer. As many of the original students that brought martial arts over from the Far East are dying off, the true essence of the art is being lost. Master Advincula doesn't want to see this happen - and neither do you, right? So for those that actually knew the real essence of the art, the inside secrets (many didn't get taught the real moves) we don't want to see the line being broken any longer. We want to test and see if people still care about lineage, kata and forms and the striking martial arts of Asia - or is everyone hoodwinked into thinking that Jiu-jitsu has it all?? Well, I for one, know it doesn't. Why?

Because I have the tapes and they are unreal!

These tapes were originally intended for friends of the dojo's and students of the lineage that had been established through seminars and training with Master Advincula. No one could buy these unless referred by someone; most still probably don't even know they exist.

Everyone who has seen them has said they are the best video series they have ever seen, from quality to content. Take a look at the following testimonial and you'll know what I mean:

"This much anticipated video series is the essential training resource for all Isshin Ryu practitioners. We first saw the unedited footage three years ago and not a day has gone by we didn't long for our own copy. The execution of each technique and kata is inspiring and a testament to the power and beauty of the art. Bunkai is demonstrated from multiple angles with a level of analysis that should forever be the standard. Functional, educational and more thorough than anyone could expect, these tapes represent a defining moment in Sensei Advincula's legacy. Two thumbs up!"

Now you can completely transform your training and teaching to a new level. Get into the best shape of your life and do so in less time than ever before. With AJ Advincula's step by step kata training and instruction program you'll be assured that you are performing the "true essence" of all the techniques - not the watered-down diluted B.S. moves we've all been sold and told were the real thing.

Look, Master Advincula travels around correcting front kicks and history to all black belts and all ages, improving their form and expanding their ability to teach their students - and yes, to even compete. He has students who have received gold medals at all the international competitions around the world in kata, kumite and kobudo (weapons).

Master Advincula explains the critical understanding of Chinkuchi (power, focus, explosion), and avoiding telegraphing the way he was taught on Okinawa in the 1950's. How I would love to have been there listening and observing those classes, wouldn't you?? Here's' your chance to get as close to being there as physically possible.

These tapes condense a lifetime of A.J.'s training (over 55+ years in martial arts) into a 5 tape series explaining and showing everything from a basic stance to the most advanced empty hand katas.

On Okinawa, Master Advincula is referred to as katagwa, that means kata guy. The standards he sets for himself and others are legendary. One of his favorite "Advinculisms" as we call them is ...

"If presented with a choice of 2 standards always choose the higher one."
I can tell you from personal experience these tapes have made me better at martial arts and better at teaching. The best thing though, is this: All of the material on these videos has made all my students better. The students who bought copies of the tapes have been glued to the TV for weeks - and their abilities have transcended time and space. They are improving by leaps and bounds from all their previous modeling and understanding.

Everyone Gets Better When They Study These Videos
- And Lightning Fast, Too

Whether you are a kyu rank or a black belt everyone benefits from these tapes enormously, beginner and advanced. Regardless of style or system, if you kick, block and punch, you do need these tapes to launch yourself to a higher level.

"These tapes by Sensei Advincula are the definitive tapes of Shimabuku Tatsuo's Isshinryu Karate. Any student of Okinawa Karate who wants to be exposed to the teachings of Shimabuku Tatsuo should add these tapes to their martial arts library. In my discussions with 1st generation students of Shimabuku Sensei,the claim is always made that Sensei Advincula's katas are the closest to what Shimabuku taught than any other student of Isshinryu. On Okinawa, Sensei Advincula is respected as one of the most knowledgeable students of Shimabuku Tatsuo."

Look, our filing cabinets are full of unsolicited testimonials from Master Advincula's students and everyone who has had a sneak peak of these videos. Improving their speed and power, lung capacity, flexibility and fat loss - not to mention added muscle. You can't do these techniques and not get in shape, even if you ate nothing but sugar and carbs all day. It works 100% of the time.

The appeal of this type of training has spread through all styles of martial arts and all individuals regardless of experience or age or gender. Many people have used these tapes in the military, (Master AJ helped the now adapted USMC hand-to-hand combat martial arts, and received a black belt emeritus from the Marine Corps), as well as for law enforcement, hard styles, soft styles, children and adults. Heck, even my kids love the videos.

In this exclusive limited time-offer, on this page only, we are going to go waaaay beyond the previous tape series offers, even those we made to our closest friends.

The benefits of these tapes is not in question. What is in question is whether you want to learn how to perform like you were meant to perform. Do you want correct, perfect movements - not to mention an understanding of why and how the moves work in all styles of martial arts?

Many high ranking instructors did not want these video's made public because they are afraid that their students will realize that they had not been taught the correct, or real way, to do and perform their martial art. They're afraid that these videos will make them look too slow and weak, too stiff and too vulnerable.

Now it's not my intention to bag on other videos and teachings. I know plenty of top-notch martial artists who have great technique. What I am saying is that these same people have also found that they can still learn and pick out some real gems from these tapes that they never learned before.

WISH I KNEW THEN WHAT I KNOW NOW.

As a young inexperienced martial artist I was doing so many things wrong that actually caused injuries and limited my true potential. There was no one around me that I could train with effectively. Then I met A.J. Advincula, and he has shown me the right way.

Listen, I have been training with him for over 17 years, and I'm wearing the tapes out, not to mention the VCR. I watch the tapes because we (and that includes ME) are always forgetting and always remembering wrong. That's why the tapes are GOLD to me. They make me a better teacher and a better student - they keep me evolving.

One time I heard a black belt at a seminar say that he had been studying martial arts for over 20 years, it was pointed out to him that he had studied for 3 years and had been repeating the same thing for over 17 years. What a true statement. We all get stuck in that "comfort zone" - but the top 5% of all martial artists, heck, the top 5% in any field, are always going forward and seeking out the BEST. They want the next set of skills and that next piece of knowledge that will keep moving them forward. Well, here's your chance to join the top 5%.

Become more focused with laser like concentration when training.

See your confidence sky rocket as your techniques get better and better.

Train your muscles to obey your every command - at will

Increase flexibility and double your strength.

Feel your energy levels go through the roof.

Develop the quickness of a speeding bullet.

Okay tell me more about the videos already...

Before I tell you about the AJ Advincula Isshinryu complete empty hand video series, suitable for all martial artists, I must issue a warning. Remember those high ranking black belts who didn't want these videos released. Well, this program is only for those who want to do their absolute best and reach their greatest potential and learn the truth right now.

And so, if you're satisfied with the way you're doing everything - then stay average. This program isn't for you. We don't need to coax the uncertain martial arts student or teacher with some sort of gimmickry; we have sold over 1,000 of these videos just to our inner circle. When you have your hands on this sensational one-of-a-kind video series, you will be in awe. So let it be known, up front, that there are no returns of these videos. I'm not going to let someone steal my Sensei's teachings and copy the tapes and return them. Not when it took 13 years to get him to agree to release them. So once you open them they are yours. If this scares you a bit, so be it. But rest assured that no one, not one single person has ever asked for a refund. And that was before I formulated this stiff policy.

So here's a brief description of the tapes:

Stances - basics of blocking, punching, kicking and work out.

Seisan kata - showing goju ryu, shorin ryu and Isshinryu. Taught and thoroughly explained-dynamic fighting bunkai great for demos

Seuinchin and naihanchi - showing goju ryu, shorin ryu and Isshinryu, taught and thoroughly explained-dynamic fighting bunkai great for demos

Wansu and chinto - showing goju ryu shorin ryu and Isshinryu, taught and thoroughly explained-dynamic fighting bunkai great for demos

Kusanku, sunusu, sanchin - showing goju ryu, shorin ryu, Isshinryu, dynamic fighting bunkai.

"Gentleman:

"I just wanted to tell you that I received my first tape from you, (#2 Seisan) and it is without a doubt, far and above the best Karate instructional tape I have ever seen! I have owned a large number of videos, and the level of instruction, and detail on yours is fantastic.

"I have a number of Panther brand videos, including some of the Angi Uezu Isshinryu series. Those others are pathetic in comparison to yours. I also have picked up a number of bad habits from the other Isshinryu tapes I own. The extra movements from the Uezu tapes (I am not sure why he vibrates after each movement). And the poorly performed versions of the kata's from the Harold Long tapes. The kata on yours is taught extremely well, and the bunkai is very well defined.

"I will most definitely purchase the rest of your series, and cannot wait for the weapons videos to become available.

"The highlights of your video for me were:

" - The comparisons to the Shorin-Ryu, and the Goju-Ryu versions of the kata.

" - The multiple angles, and the fact that the form is repeated a number of times at different speeds.

" - The very detailed breakdown of each movement. I have seen how to perform the Isshinryu kata's, but have never fully understood the movements, until now.

"Thank you very much for such great product. It was well worth the money, and I look forward to working with the other tapes."

No whining. The price of these videos is less then the cost of 1 private lesson with Master Advincula and you don't have to pay for the hotel or the plane ticket, assuming he could even fit you into his busy schedule.
