Helps level the playing field
The mix of catch wrestling and pro-wrestling tactics adds a unique twist to traditional jujitsu techniques, giving wrestlers an edge in a competitive setting. I found the techniques in the Anti-jujitsu video to be effective and practical. The demonstrations provided practical applications for each technique, showcasing how they can be used to counter jujitsu moves effectively.
Brill
Nice extra nuggets of detail, when applying holds
Vey Helpful, Everyone Should Own This
Simple Concepts for Complex Wrestling
CACC
This was a good instructional, there seem to be some good details in there that come from catch really Robinson Style.
Good takedowns
Great takedown details
Learned Some Useful Techniques
As Sakuraba isn't so good in English, he teaches the video speaking Japanese and it has to be translated by another person in the video. This makes it somewhat tedious to follow along but they made the best of it. You have both Craig and Bernardo asking questions and digging for more details and they uncover a lot of wisdom from Sakuraba. But just FYI, Sakuraba is a catch wrestler and his techniques have a more offensive orientation. He's not gonna mess around going for control positions the same way a BJJ fighter would emphasize this. He's looking to submit his opponent a lot more quickly and so his takedowns transition into submissions almost immediately.
legs galore
definitely helped breakdown how to manipulate the legs for both takedowns and submissions

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻creative and efficient
Very creative techiniques that most of bjj guys are not expecting.
cool tips from an mma legend
great vids from sakuraba, learn about his general approach and some tips on techniques also got craig and bernardo, a fun watch!
Kazushi Sakuraba is the F*cking Man
he's legendary and was ahead of his time during his amazing run in the 2000's. It's cool to hear about his theory put into practise from his amazing catch wrestling style. If you can impress Craig Jones with your technique and knowledge of leg locks and submissons you know you've stumbled across something special. This is a hidden gem and really underappreciated. Worth the purchase.
it works
very remniscent of saku's old matches, showing what works and what doesn't, making it easy to understand and apply
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Excellent
The og of anti-jiu jitsu does it again!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Cool opportunity to learn from a legend!
Sakuraba has always been one of my favourite competitors to watch, but it’s been hard to find pure technique demonstrations from him with English details. This short video instructional from BJJ Fanatics uses Saku’s translator, along with the inputs from Craig Jones and Bernardo to help breakdown his ways of approaching common positions from his wrestling background.
Secrets from the master
A humble martial arts master from the far east shares his hidden techniques through a mysterious man in a luchador mask - recommended
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Unique and effective
Sakuraba has a unique style. This is because he has a Catch Wrestling background. He has proven that his style works at the highest level of MMA. there are small details that differentiate his techniques from traditional BJJ. When he demonstrates his techniques you see that they are effective, when Bernado or Craig asks him a question, such as what if….. Sakura always has an answer without hesitation. An answer that makes sense and one that solves the problem. Sakuraba covers single legs and counters, as well as timing and entries. Sakuraba also shows the details that made his chokes so effective, small details that makes a difference. Sakuraba explains the advantages of only having one hook in, and why this is his preferred method for taking the back. I don’t want to make this a long drawn review, it suffices to say that the rest of this digital download continues in the same spirit, with Sakurabas unique approach to the game and the same attention to details. I recommend this product, as it has the potential to change the way you think and the potential to elevate your game. Sakuraba made an impact on the world of MMA when burst onto the scene, and this video shows you why.
Kazushi Sakuraba's Catch Wrestling Techniques
This was easily one of my favorite intructionals on BJJ fanatics. Craig and Bernardo did such a good job picking Sakuraba's brain and it was cool to see them learn some of the intricate differences between Catch Wrestling and BJJ. In this instructional, you will see the various techniques that Sakuraba's learned from his various teachers and influences from over the years. You can see some Billy Robinson techniques throughout and even Satoru "Tiger Mask" Sayama's wrist lock routine at the end. Very fun stuff and well worth the purchase (if anything, it's underpriced). Also, shout out to Sakuraba's freestyle wrestling coach, Shozo Sasahara who was a gold medalist in the Olympics. Billy Robinson was proud of his student Sakuraba but he always gave credit to Mr. Sasahara for Sakuraba's success as well.

The Gracie Hunter / Japanese Gracie
Sakuraba is know as the Gracie hunter for defeating the Gracie in Pride mma. Renzo called him The Japanese Gracie. In this tutorial you will learn the Kimura which was the weapon Sakurba used to triumph over some of the Gracies, he even broke Renzo's arm with the Kimura.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Kimura hunting was more informative
Don't misunderstand me, this is a great instructional but Sakuraba also has one out called "Kimura hunting" that I found to be orders of magnitude more helpful.
not what i expected
this is akin to listening to instructors talk after a seminar and learning a ton.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great instructional from a legend
Outstanding instructional for variations on different moves.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻My favorite instructional
I love this one. I love the catch wrestling techniques. I love Sakuraba. I love the unique approach to grappling. Craig Jones and Bernardo add a lot by asking questions. And not for nothing, this is easily the most entertaining instructional I've watched. The fun they're having making it keeps you engaged. I have longer instructionals with more content and direction of technique, but this is my favorite one and exceptional for the price.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Catch Wrestling
Learning some new tweaks to techniques I already use and new techniques all together made for a satisfactory purchase of a very reasonably priced instructional
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Excellent instructional
Excellent drills not found on other instructional worth the money
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Very interesting watch, very different
Very interesting watch, very different to a standard instructional but quite cool to watch Bernardo, Sakuraba and Craig interact and pick each other's brains. Worth a watch for sure
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Anti Jiu Jitsu by Kazushi Sakuraba
A lot of options from a different perspective. I havent had the oportunity to try any yet but look forward to what it gives me on the mat.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Anti Jiu Jitsu by Kazushi Sakuraba
Good to see some different takes on moves. I am keen to try some of these and will continue to review the content as I progress in my learning stages.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Interesting-ahead of his time?
I bought this more out of curiosity than need. I wanted to see what all the fuss was about with this guy. He seems to have been ahead of his time; almost like his stuff from the 2000's is what the no-gi specialists today do. The video is a bit slow to watch because he needs a translator. Craig Jones on the matts with him is cool...Craig seems like he's really working to understand the depth.
great
Great tips from the gracie hunter! Craig Jones asks some great questions to help lean Sakurabas unique style.
Great choices, great tools for learning
These are great to add nuances and round out a person's game. A great tool for learning and improving.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great video
Enjoyed this instructional. Always great to have Craig Jones adding some humor to the instructionals
A great look at the
A great look at the techniques Sakuraba leveraged to defeat many different opponents throughout the years. Also, a great read for the BJJ practitioner who wants a little something different to use against their daily training partners. Great techniques and highly recommended.
