Colour film footage of the Royal Navy during the Second World War is exceptionally rare. Official cameramen shot little colour footage and filming by members of the ship's crew was strictly forbidden. However this rule was occasionally broken and a number of officers did shoot their own colour film while serving. Their 'home movies' now provide some of the most remarkable and important colour film of the navy during the war years. Royal Navy historian Roland R Smith produced this totally unique compilation of these colour films. Much of the material has never been seen before and is all the more remarkable for being filmed pre-war or in the war's early years. The colour films included on this DVD were shot by officers from the Nelson the Kent the Ivanhoe and the Laforey. Precious pre-war film records the 3rd Destroyer Flotilla in Malta and on exercise in the autumn of 1939 and the ships of the First Battle Squadron and the First Cruiser Squadron in the Mediterranean that same year. From spring 1939 comes rare colour film of the warships of the China Station. There are colour scenes of the navy during the Norwegian campaign of 1940 Malta convoys (including `Operation Pedestal' and air attack sequences) and splendid colour film of ocean liners converted into troop ships and under escort. Other highlights include a colour film of the carrier Eagle sinking the Laforey shelling Madagascar and dramatic film of the Nelson sailing under the Forth Bridge exercising her big guns and scenes of life on board ship. Among the warships captured here in colour are the carriers Illustrious Indomitable Furious and Glorious the battleships Rodney Warspite Barham Nelson and Queen Elizabeth the cruiser Birmingham the destroyers Eskimo Ashante Cossack and Hermione and the mine-laying submarine Grampus.

If you want to win a fight not only do you need good kicks and punches but you also need good takedowns. In this DVD Shifu Yan Lei reveals a series of simple and highly effective movements to catch your opponent's punch and kick then take them down. Using his students to demonstrate Shifu Yan Lei shows you how to fuse modern fighting techniques with traditional Shaolin techniques so that you can use these takedowns not only against sanda fighters but also UFC and MMA. About Shifu Yan Lei Shifu Yan Lei was born in a traditional family in the Xin Jiang province of China. The son of a fisherman he is the youngest of seven children. It was a struggle for my parents to look after seven children. I was constantly hungry. I was very naughty as a child; always skipping school and getting into street fights. He began his martial arts life at the age of fourteen when he travelled to the other side of China to train in the Shaolin Temple in Henan province. Temple life was very hard and sometimes I hated it. I had to get up every morning at five-thirty and prepare my teacher's breakfast and bring him water so that he could wash himself and then I would take the boys running up the mountain. But looking back I feel very happy. Temple life gave me a strong focus. I stopped fighting on the street and trained every day honing my Shaolin skills. His Master; the Shaolin Abbot; Shi Yong Xin gave him the name Lei - meaning thunder - and he became a 34th generation fighting disciple. When he was eighteen he travelled to different Kung Fu schools to learn additional Kung Fu and Qi Gong skills from famous masters. Because I was young my main interest was in fighting but the more I studied the more I realised that in order to do physical exercise you need to look after your internal organs through the practice of qi gong. This will give you a longer martial arts life. I then went back to the Shaolin Temple to read all of the ancient books they have on the subject. At the age of twenty-eight he was invited to the West to teach authentic Shaolin martial arts. Shaolin has become very famous but unfortunately a lot of what is taught is not real Shaolin. The Buddha said Question everything I say. Test it for yourself. Don't just take my word for it. This is the same with Shaolin. Try it see it works for you once you see it working then you can give your full commitment but be wary of claims people make. There are a lot of so-called secrets about Shaolin but the only secret I have found is that you have to train consistently. Kung Fu literally means hard work for example for a virtuoso violin player their playing is their kung fu. They cannot learn violin in a year neither can a person learn kung fu in a year. It takes time but it is worth it. If the Shaolin Arts were in pill form then everyone would take it because the results are a longer healthier happier life and I don't know of a single person who doesn't want this.
