hay everyone. My name is Robert Voss. I coach wrestling in Minneapolis. In the past 4 years I have noticed a repeating style of teaching wrestling. Coaches and wrestlers are always jumping to the flashy advanced techniques. So my idea with this manual is to bring people back to the basics. This manual isn't just for wrestlers and coaches. Its for everyone. I cover almost every aspect of wrestling in this manual. The manual starts off covering illegal wrestling techniques and tactics. I then move on to stances, grips, tie ups and make a transition into takedowns. I then move on to wrestling throws and then takedown and throw defences. The manual also covers pins, escapes and reversals, rides and breakdowns, drills and end of practice games. I also have a section on greco and freestyle par tier position (top and bottom position). I WANT TO MAKE THIS 100% CLEAR. This is a wrestling manual. There are no pictures or any fluf. Just straight descriptions of basic wrestling techniques. If anyone is interested in purchasing a copy just let me know VIA Email. My email is hksambo@yahoo.com

Sounds nice Rob, I'll have to check it out. Having pics to go along with it... or even the whole thing on DVD would really be a useful tool.

Hey Rob,
Do you have a website where people can read about it, read reviews of it, get purchasing information, etc? I'm sure that would greatly help sales.

A book of this nature should contain picture descriptions of the techniques as text isn't always clear in regards to techniques. Just a thought.

Vince I don't have a website where people can read about it. Would it be ok if I sent you a copy and perhaps you can write a review of it on the board. To date I have only offered my manual on the RMATA forum. If you guys like it then I would put some pics in it and offer it in other places.. The way it is now I am selling it for $10 plus shipping. I don't have pics in it yet because I don't know if people will like it. Also I am working on my descrition of techniques the way Roy Harris does. I figure a good instructor should be able to relay techniques verbally in addition to visually. Vince I will send you a copy and just let me know what you think, ok.

Hey Rob,
I'd be happy to write a review of it and put it on the board. I'm guessing you should probably add the pics to it first, I'm sure it would make it 10X better. After that a simple website with pics, reviews, and ordering info about it would probably be very helpful as well.

Hey, any progress with the finished book yet? I'd love to hear more about it! I don't know Vince that well yet(I've seen lots of discussion about your leglock tapes around the internets), but I DO know Bill and if he says the book is good ... it's as good as SOLD by me!

Hi Shaloin,
Just to clarify, the book isn't by me, it's by Robb Voss. I don't have any news on it, hopefully he'll update this thread when it is ready.

Update on the book. My computer crashed a while back so I had to start over. I am taking my time and getting everything right this time. Should be done in a few weeks.
