• Perfect for my needs

  Professor John Danaher is phenomenal at teaching in a way that any student no matter what type of learner they are will understand grasping the concept and the reason for it. I’m 44 years old now and have suffered a few different injuries during my 2 decades plus of martial arts training, I hurt my shoulder during a Judo Tournament and required rotator cuff surgery, before my injury I had only a few months earlier been promoted to Brown Belt in BJJ, the injury prevented my from stepping on a judo and BJJ mat for close to two years, I began training again about 14 months ago after repairing my shoulder, I eased my way back into all my training Judo(black belt) Boxing (USA Boxing amateur licensed fighter Masters Division) and BJJ (Brown belt) the combination of the injury with years of wear and tear as well as my age and the rust from not training or competing for so long was obvious to me, because of my ego I would only do no-gi BJJ so that I didn’t have to wear my belt and get “embarrassed” by lower ranked practitioners, I knew I was sandbagging but didn’t want to admit that I was unable to do things the way I could before, these techniques were a large part in helping me change my game to a version that is successful with the new limitations that my body now has, I also realized that my ego controlling where and how I train is not reflective of the instructor’s I’ve been blessed to learn from, I altered my game and my way of thinking and once again added GI training and have even earned stripes on my belt, I credit Danaher and the strategic approach that I utilize now and it has brought me to a place where I see myself competing in the near future, I never thought that would be possible a few years ago. Anyone who has had an injury that makes it impossible to succeed using the style you developed before you got hurt trust me when I say you are able to adapt to your limitations and become successful reaching the goals you have set for yourself.

  I keep coming back to this over and over and over. When I run into problems rolling on bottom, theres an answer for that here.

  Amazing for old people

• Super insightful

  What I like about Ageless Jiu-Jitsu is that it dives into a system that is simple to execute under pressure and works well together (trademark of JD's instructionals, besides the long explanations lol). I've been using in the gym to great effect (even though it took me some 3 months to start executing properly on all the moves). First time that I actually feel like I'm improving since blue belt, and getting more complex reactions from training partners. Recommend for older hobbyists for sure, although the younguns will learn a thing or two about old man trickery.

• Amazing

  Honestly probably the best instructional I’ve ever seen. Completely changed my gi guard game immediately and for the better. Now I’m devouring all of Danaher’s stuff. I’ve bought too many okay instructionals over the years. Danaher’s stuff is miles ahead of anyone else’s in my opinion.

  Love this. Life and health have kept me off the mats for extended periods. This kind of game plan is exactly what I needed for my return.
