How do you watch BJJ Fanatics instructionals: DVD, streaming or download?

Both ways, and the archive spans the shift between them. 2,395 reviews mention how they watched, rating 4.93. 1,843 refer to DVDs and 103 to downloading for offline use. Only 20 report trouble getting access at all, and just 399 mention shipping, a small share of an archive this size.

Computed from the BJJ Fanatics review archive at build time. Last review in the archive: 2026-11-09. How this is built.

What the evidence shows

The archive spans eight years, so older entries describe discs and newer ones describe digital access. A high DVD count is a fact about when the review was written as much as about how the product ships today.

399 reviews mention shipping or delivery at all, at 4.91 average. Delivery is a very small part of what customers write about here, which is what you would expect from a catalogue that is now largely digital.

How the matching reviews are rated

The 2,395 matching reviews sit at 4.93 on average, against 4.95 for the archive as a whole. 8 of them carry one or two stars.

Evidence table

Each row counts, among the 2,395 matching reviews, how many contain a phrase pattern for that theme. One review can satisfy several patterns and then appears under each of them, which is why the column does not add up. Rows are ordered by count.

What positive reviewers wrote

Reproduced in full, exactly as submitted. These come from the 2,376 matching reviews rated four or five stars, 99% of the set.

• Incrível

  The Turtle Guard Revisited by Eduardo Telles

  Na faixa branca abri o YouTube em um dia qualquer e me apareceu o dvd completo do Eduardo Telles com os drills da guarda tartaruga, posições e abordagem. Fui pego pela simplicidade e depois que pesquisei sobre Telles e suas lutas, fiquei fascinado sobre quão eficiente era sua tecnica e seu estilo completamente diferente, desde então não deixei de acompanhar, tornou-se uma inspiração e referência para mim.

• New and exciting

  The Mirroring Principle: Quantum Half Guard by Wim Deputter

  There are many new guards and passing strategies in this 8 DVD instructional. The deep halve guard with the quantum perspective is very interesting.

• Great Video

  Unstoppable Inside Leglocks & False Reaps by Pawel Jaworski

  I think this DVD is one of the best foot lock DVDs in NoGi. Especially it's very detailed about the entries of several False Reap. Highly recommended.

• invisible armbar

  The Invisible Armbar by Diego Gamonal

  great addition to your game. this video shows the relationship of the silent arm bar, the crucifix, omoplata, monoplata, and rolling triangle. Fun video!

• Solid, different

  Filthy Cross Body Attacks by Neil Melanson

  It is always nice to see something different from mainstream bjj. Solid instruction, effective techniques, but I found myself fastforwarding a lot, because Melanson is extremely chatty on this one.

What critical reviewers wrote

The same question, taken from the 19 matches at three stars or under. Published unedited and at the same length as the positive ones, because an archive that quotes only praise is not worth reading.

• Not for me

  BJJ Fanatics Insiders Club - Yearly with 7 days free trial

  Great insights from some pros. Content seems to be based on the instructors latest dvd. Great idea but wasnt really for me.

• Interesting ideas

  Hidden BJJ Secrets by Luiz Panza

  Interesting ideas from Panza, but unfortunately I can't say that watching the dvd has helped my game tremendously

• Pretty let down

  False Reap Accusations by Craig Jones

  Definitely not worth $200 bucks. Pretty basic info on the false reap. It’s stuff you can find on youtube as well as his pendejo guard dvd that he put out for free

• Nice techniques but didnt really learn as much as I wanted to

  Power Kicking by Benson Henderson

  would have liked to know that it was a southpaw based dvd as an orthodox fighter I felt some of the techniques and angles were confusing to work as an orthodox

• Had to return it because

  Blue Belt Requirements 2.0 by Roy Dean

  Had to return it because it cannot be accessed offline in the bjj fanatics app. Content seemed good but instructional is only 2 hour long.

• my least favorite wrestling dvd

  Wrestling For BJJ by Hudson Taylor

  I bought this years ago, the title is very misleading, this is a pure wrestling DVD not tailored to BJJ at all. I was very disappointed, in my opinion money is better spend somewhere else. I don t know anything about his new titles, those might be really good, but this one I even think the time to watch is wasted.
