Josh Barnett, Erik Paulson and NOW - Frank Shamrock Joins Scientific Wrestling!

Thanks to everyone that bought Wade Schalles' newest title, KILLER CRADLES: Terminal Takedowns. We finally got the proofs and approved them today so they will ship tomorrow. Again thank you for your patience and enjoy! Please let me know your opinion after you watch it. This week's updates are COLOSSAL! 1) BRAND NEW - Erik Paulson: The Neckbreaker DVD This should be ready for sale (no pre-sale on this one) in the next 2 weeks! Email me at [email protected] if you want me to put you on the short list for this one. 2) Josh Barnett's 3/5 fight against Yoshida Yoshida isn't a walk in the park and remember there is a bit of historical significance to this match up. This event is scheduled for March 5th in Tokyo. In 1921 on the same day (3/5), another Judo vs Catch Wrestling match took place in Tokyo. The American's name was Ad Santell... Santell fought the best Judoka from the Kodokan and beat them. The same day, 87 years later Josh Barnett will fight the Olympic Gold Medalist judoka. I think that is pretty cool booking! Read more about it at Josh's Blog and remember to pick up a copy of Attacking the Guard before your training buddies do! 3) Macebell Strength Training BONUS: Mini Catch Wrestling Seminar Our February Seminar seminar is filling up. Remember, anyone that attends will get their very own Macebell PLUS I am going to hold a FREE 2 hour mini-Catch-As-Catch-Can seminar immediately afterward that will be available only to those who attend the Macebell seminar! Believe me, our gym is fairly cozy so attendance is strictly first come, first served... 4) OC Toe-Hold Club Classes begin! The OC Toe-Hold Club is up and we are running both grappling and hard-core conditioning classes in South Orange County. For those of you Catch Wrestling enthusiasts in San Clemente, Dana Point, San Juan Capistrano, and Mission Viejo you now have a home: We also have Toe-Hold Club Affiliates opening up elsewhere. The L.A. Toe-Hold Club should be up and running again soon under Michael Long, Level I Certified Catch Wrestler (and savate/boxe francaise expert). We will also have a Canadian Toe-Hold Club opening up very soon under the supervision of Kris Iatskevich. 5) Early bird discount for 4/26 Certified Catch Wrestling audits! This month's special is a limited early bird discount for the up-coming Certified Catch Wrestling Audit! Take a full 10% off registration fees until midnight February 28th, 2008.

We congratulate Kris Iatskevich on becoming a central part of our certification staff! Kris will join me in leading all audits from this day forward and will be in charge of administering all Scientific Wrestling's East Coast Audits. FYI: We've had two spots taken for our next Audit, so only 4 more candidates will make this April's squad... 6) HUGE NEWS: Frank Shamrock joins the Scientific Wrestling Advisory board!
