MOST people that are interested in CME material are experienced Martial artists ... and what they are looking for is to move from just doing stuff in the Dojo and getting explanations that they would never use on the street to a level of understanding that does make sense in real combat and WHY things work (real physiology reasons) ... how to make things work in real time/ situations. (*1 see below)
C.M.E. materials are not a collection of Medical lectures or exercises or stories bragging about myself or my style ... Instead CME materials are principles and explanations of stuff works that with any real combat / self defense style.
CME materials focus real MARTIAL ARTS techniques and knowledge with explanations that unlock both efficiency AND understandings of techniques that you may have only have heard of or may have only poorly understood before.
In fact many of the combat techniques are based on the 1500's when Martial arts was not a competition or a game ...
Frankly these materials are designed to make you a better high level martial artist.
So this is not stuff meant for beginners - Nor are these materials "instructional" manuals on how to do "basic" techniques ... so if you are looking to learn basics I am afraid that this is not the right place to look.
......................
SO I focus on ensuring you get INFORMATION - REAL usable information - not hype - and plenty of it! - material that is based on scientific facts - not my personal opinion with a focus on REAL MARTIAL ARTS AND Self Defense information - not tournament moves or tough guy concepts.
... I just want to be honest here and let you know what you are getting**
*1. So if you are the type that says they would never hurt anyone or that martial arts is about peace then this is definitely NOT the site for you ... nor is this the right place if you think you have to be the toughest to win. I will disprove that limited concept!
* versus tough guy macho stuff / styles - I show you how to take being tough out of the equation - not make it the focus.
(**I am not trying to drive away business here but no one wins if you expect fancy covers and glitz and are unhappy with what you bought. .. I do want you to know what you are getting - up front - and then give you information materials that is worth even more than you paid for them ... frankly many people tell me that they wind up using my stuff as reference material and many even re-order the same books as they have worn out the books ... yes that takes a lot of usage!)
.............................
PLEASE also NOTE: all Books/Videos/ DVD's offered by CME are all based on Modern WESTERN Medical Principles and terms (NOT Traditional Chinese Medicine) and it is written at College level ... (not 7th grade level like most commercial productions)
This is done intentionally to give you the most up to date exact scientifically proven information and explanations - [Explanations that you can easily check up on!]
Truthfully I also do it this way to keep this information out of the hands of kids and the "ninja turtle - wanna be" crowd. Because this stuff really does works and I don't want to be responsible for some show off kid hurting another. [Famous last words: "Hey! Watch this!"] - same reason I demand proof of age on some materials.
So If you are looking for competition or ring techniques then PLEASE BE AWARE: This material is not designed for competition and will probably get you instantaneously disqualified in a tournament!
I won't offend you by trying to pass off eye gouges and groin strikes stuff you already know for real techniques .... this is real combat information .. and It is intended for the street where you need such information to protect yourself against multiple opponents!
Thanks for understanding. I simply want you to get REAL information ... stuff you really want and need ... I believe - we both win that way!

1) What you are buying is information NOT fancy production!!!! . My Books, Videos and DVD's are not fancy. The Videos are in fact tapes of actual seminars. The 'Books' are paper folded booklets. DVD's may contain seminars but may also have additional footage. file / information plus are of a higher quality than the Videos are. ALL products contain hard factual scientific information ... Material that works on the street!! Not glitz or self promotion.
I sell these material like this for several reasons;
.........A) To keep the production costs down (which keeps your costs down)
.........B.) To keep the Ninja-turtle-wanna-be kids who are only interested in pretty/fancy productions from even paying attention to my materials. (Frankly I don't want them to know)
2) What I sell works! And thus WILL hurt / kill people if applied. So you need to have the good sense not to play around .... I have found that Adults SERIOUSLY interested in protecting themselves care about the content not the glitz and have the common sense not to play around with real information ... Which Kids do not ...
3) so If you truly want HYPE or fancy glitzy productions then please go somewhere else. However, You will NOT be able even come close to finding the type of information offered here ... But you probably will still be happier.
4) ALL my Videos and DVDs play in NTSC FORMAT ... I am sorry but at present I do not have PAL or SECAM format available.
5) As far as Refunds. I sell information ... Once you have received a product the information is yours... so is the material. If there is a mistake and you did not get what you ordered ... Or it doesn't work right (in the case of a Video or DVDs) Please let me know as I WILL fix that problem ASAP. I WILL do my best to make things right!I do want you to be happy with the material you purchased [which is why I do all that I do ... My e-mail Address is : bemiller@cloudnet.com
I am simply trying to be honest here and let you know what you are getting and what you are not getting!
Over 90% of the questions I get about not understanding something I said are from people who ask questions that are covered in the first book in the series.
The Basic Books in a series contain terms and concepts that are then expanded in the advanced books ... unless you have a degree in anatomy and physiology or are a licensed clinician you will not get the the full meaning of my explanation in the advanced books unless you read the first books ..
So Please START FROM THE BEGINNING ... Please ... for both of our sakes ... Put ego aside and start with the FIRST book in a series ... don't jump to the "advanced" book without reading the first Book ... advanced means building on the books ahead of it in that system ... it doesn't relate to your personal Martial Arts ability.
PLEASE do not assume that I write like many others and that you can skip my beginning books because they are "BASIC" ...... WRONG!!
I also try NOT to repeat myself ... people don't buy my material to waste their time or mine. So PLEASE don't buy an advanced book expecting that everything I covered in earlier books in that series will be repeated again and the higher level stuff will be understandable without first understanding the lower level material .
Sorry WRONG My books and videos build on each other.. And I expect you to know what was in the earlier books BEFORE you work on the more advanced stuff ... in short BUY the First book of a series THEN get the advanced .... The first book is NOT a beginners book! There are plenty of books out there for beginners but these are not them ... I am NOT putting beginners down (everyone has to start somewhere) but everything I write or put out is for people who have been in the arts for quite a while and already know the basics and want to build on what they already know.
Therefore you WILL need to read my basic (or first of a series book/video/DVD) to get full value out of the advanced material ... Please don't whine if you don't get full value out an advanced book, etc because you thought you didn't need to start from the beginning ... Believe me these products are NOT like anything you have seen before ....
Also they are meant as REFERENCE material, not easy read stuff that you read once and throw away ... expect that you will be going through them many times and learn something every time. I have had more than one person buy replacements books after wearing out the book. I take that as a compliment!
Therefore ... You WILL miss a lot of understandings if you don't start at the beginning of a series (even if you are an expert!), as I will build upon previously presented material, not repeat it.
SO if you have no real martial arts experience then my stuff will NOT be what you want. CME products are comprised of flat out hard facts designed to enhance your fighting ability by teaching you the theories behind what works on the street! Even the kata DVD's are designed to teach HIGH level advanced skills ... that main and or kill so they won't look like your average 1minute 30 30 second tournament Kata ... and they are not really designed to teach you the basic kata. Instead they teach you the principles behind the kata (no not punch and kick)
Frankly most of what I teach will get you thrown out of a tournament. (And not for bad sportsmanship either!) That applies to the current fad of MMA/ cage/ tough man contest fighting ... those contests still have rules designed to make the fight last ... they are not the street. Where as CME material is designed to make the fight end FAST ... they are techniques and principles specifically designed to take tough out of the equation.
I am certain that if you are looking for REAL Martial Arts information based on Modern Science and REAL facts then you will be very happy with CME Productions materials ... many people are and I get LOTS of nice comments and repeat customers and customers moving up from other "producers" selling "secret lists" and other snake oil concepts on how to be tough or what ever .....
I know I was excessively redundant in this section I just want you to be aware of what you are getting ...!
