Trying to learn locks, traps, submissions, etc. is extremely difficult...if not impossible...to learn without live instruction. There's no way to get adequate feedback to learn how to readjust so you can apply the technique efficiently with proper technique, rather than trying to muscle it through. If you already have some experience with some techniques from previous instruction, you may be able work some new stuff from books, DVDs, etc. However, I hate to see people run the risk of 'learning' from a book or something, and then relying on those techniques and having them fail when they need to use them.
