The technique in the teaser is a block and biset (foot-drag) takedown.
Maha Guru Plinck, to the left in the b.g., sports his Yul Brynner look.
I haven't heard from Guy Bowring, at Resonant Video, when it will be available or what it will cover and cost, but as a heads-up for Sera fans, there's the link.
Guy doesn't make any real money at this, it's a service for the instructors and students of the art, and there are a couple of vids by Guru Plinck, one on the knife, and another that is a multi-instructor seminar in Las Vegas. If you are lucky enough to train with Guru Plinck, you know how terrific the quality of instruction is; if you can't make it to a seminar, the videos are worth having.

Somewhere,somehow, I think I have either a video from possibly Paladin or one someone sent me on VHS with Steven Plinck on it...but have not looked at it for some years...anyway, your blog here is really interesting and great...keep up the good work...thanks, Halford
