Each of these productions features many of the techniques that are taught at Shuyokan by Sensei Dye. At the beginning of each production, Sensei Dye offers instruction on the proper use of Ukemi (break falls) for many of the techniques that are featured in these productions. Then, with the help of some of the Shuyokan Black belts, Sensei Dye instructs you step-by-step on using some of the traditional techniques of Aikido, such as Kotegaeshi, Shihonage, Iriminage and other advanced techniques involving defending against a club, knife, or gun, for the purposes of practical self-defense for The Modern Warrior.

From the back cover of the DVD's: Shuyokan Ryu is a martial art teaching system made up of techniques taken from the traditional martial arts of Yoshinkan Aikido, Kodokan Judo and Jujutsu, and Shotokan Karate Jujutsu. Shuyokan Ryu stresses "self-defense", not fighting. The founder and headmaster, Soke David Dye, has taken these techniques and put them into a practical form of martial art based on his 34 years as a police officer in California and his martial arts training and teaching since 1962. His self-defense system is better known as the "Samurai Cop's System of Self-Defense".
