The Art of Feinting: Martial Arts Training Method (On Demand)

By Eric Candori and Olivier D'Amario

Former international judo and jujitsu competitors, Eric Candori and Olivier D'Amario have dedicated more than 20 years to teaching and developing martial artists. Drawing from their extensive competitive and instructional experience, these certified instructors present a practical and highly effective approach to technical development and coaching.

This instructional video focuses on the use of feints as a tactical tool in both martial arts and combat sports. Designed for instructors, coaches, competitors, and practitioners of all skill levels, it provides a structured system for building more productive training sessions and developing intelligent combat strategies.

The program is organized around the three primary fighting ranges: striking, throwing, and groundwork. Through progressive drills, training exercises, and detailed technical explanations, Candori and D'Amario demonstrate how feints can be used to create openings, disrupt an opponent's timing, and improve tactical decision-making during live exchanges.

Also featured are demonstrations by Percy Kunsa and Mohamed Drari, members of the French National Team (French Judo, Jujitsu, Kendo and Associated Disciplines Federation), along with Pascal Guilloteau and Florian Auda, accomplished black belts and advanced practitioners.
