The Experts Agree ... ''Gene Simco is one of the most Technical Jiu-jitsu instructors on the East Coast. His students are a testement to that.'' - Brian Cimmins, Grapplers Quest Tournament Director ''I've been training bjj for 35 years and Gene's book is one of the best books in the market. I strongly advise everybody that practise jiu jitsu to buy it.'' -- Romero ''Jacare´'' Cavalcanti (founder of Alliance Jiu-jitsu and one of 5 Rolls Gracie Black Belts) ''I am an old man and a martial arts grandmaster and I thought I knew a lot. I am physically disabled but I practice that which I can practice and even someone with physical infirmities like me can easily learn these straight forward common sense techniques that I somehow missed along the learning trail. But little did I realize how little I really knew until I read the 162 page book BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU BASICS. This is without a doubt the Cadillac, the Rembrandt, the Leonardo De Vinci, the Bruce Lee of jiu jitsu books at the lower belt level.'' Professor Kenneth L. Haugland Grandmaster, Soke, Ph.d., 10th Dan American Combat Judo and Jujitsu Association
