I have one of the instructional videos by Alvaro Romano (the one featured on the site with the blue cover) and it's ok. I think I paid close to 60 bucks for it and it's definately not worth that much (not many tapes are). It's in Portugese and it opens with an almost 7 minute music video of Alvaro crawling around the rainforest and beaches mimicing all sorts of animals. When he finally gets to the techniques it's pretty decent. I prefer the more practical movements that translate better to actual grappling as opposed to the 5 minutes spent on how to crawl like a leopard. The tape ends with another music video.
