Completely comprehensive guide to the back. I love the layout of the main straight jacket system and auxiliary systems. This answered all of the questions I had and even more that I didn’t know I had. Can’t recommend this enough.
Best of the best!
Great details
Great video. Very informative.
this is really chang my perspective on Jiu-Jitsu
This was the first JJ instructional DVD I've ever purchased and was understandably nervous given the price. However, after having had chance to study the content I immediately feel silly for having worried about getting my monies worth. John is excellent and his instructions are very clear. He is incredibly detailed and boils down the concepts so they are easily understood. His teaching style is very academic, which may not be to everyones taste. I feel a far greater sense of direction and purpose when attacking the back and it has really accelerated my understanding of the position in an incredibly short space of time. Will certainly be buying more of John's instructionals in the future!
The information in this instructional is so dense that I will have to rewatch multiple times to extract all the value from it. Danaher does a phenomenal job explaining what makes the back position work and how to make attacks from there successful. I could not be more pleased with it. I am a fairly experienced grappler, but I think that those at a lower level in the sport should be able to get a lot out of this as well. If anything, it would prevent them from learning bad habits and misinformation that later need to be unlearned. Video quality was professional.
Took my understanding and back attack game to a new level! Definitely worth purchasing this system.
Awsome!!! Incredibly technical!
The back attacks system by John is simply fantastic he makes every detail so simple to understand. His knowledge an teaching is beyond expectation which is why in my opinion he is the best instructor out there already I'm taking the back an my understanding of how to control an finish has improved greatly. I would highly recommend..
John is an excellent teacher. Any penny spent on him is money well spent.
Brilliant break down of controlling and finishing submissions from the back. Excellent for those who want to spend some time breaking down their back game and improving
Great in depth instruction to the back mount. Johns approach to teaching is very clear and concise explaining the reason why certain movements are necessary. Control and attack from these positions. This is the complete package
Amazing content very detailed explanaitions!
If you are an analytical thinker this is great. Danaher is very precise in his language which makes this easy to understand.
I use to be frustrated by the back position and would frequently lose position and rarely get a choke. That has totally changed now. The incredible detail Danaher has gone into now lets me maintain control, grip fight and finish with ease. Even on much more experienced opponents. Now i know, once i can get to the back i can finish. So worth it.
The depth of knowledge was impressive. The content was absolute fire. The video quality was top notch. I cannot recommend this series enough. If you practice the techniques outlined in this video you’ll be playing chess while your competitors are playing checkers.
BJJFanatics offer the best training instructionals in the market. The material in this course is top notch. Alongside your daily routine, reps with either a partner or ***** and the techniques shown and you are set. Highly recommended.
No one makes this content as easily consumable as John Danaher. And what I really like is he gives you the big picture... the eagle-eye view, before taking you into the details. There is a counter to your opponent’s counter, and he covers each nuance with enough repetition that you have a high level of understanding just by watching, so that you can try it out later on the mats. Currently, we are dealing with COVID-19, and accessibility to roll is limited, so to still be able to study, and get some new perspective has been interesting. I recommend this series.
Danaher is a genius!
Amazing. all the little details that he incorporates together just make it look easy and it is
Halfway through this instructional and the mind blowing detail john goes into each move has really elevated my game in the gym to the point where my training partners are shocked with the level of control from the back i now have. I want to thank John and BJJ fanatics for these instructional videos
One of the best instructional when it comes to attacking the back. As always John Danaher delivers a comprehensive and complete system from fundamentals all the way to advanced techniques.
So it’s my first John Danaher instructional video I’ve purchased and I must say wow, from the moment first overview video started I’ve got gripped to the screen and next thing I’ve realized 1.5 h passed by. The way John explain step by step process really makes you I feel understand where and why he is going to with his system. I am officially hooked on John’s instructional videos and moving forward will try to buy more of his products
I'd like to make it a point to emphasize that John Danaher instructionals are not for everyone. He has a very academic way of teaching concepts, he is very repetitive, he speaks slowly, and he uses big words. I am certain there are many other instructors who would be a better fit for different learners, and one does not have to like/understand John Danaher in order to be perceived as "smart." (I enjoy it, and my IQ scores are on the low-average side.) That being said, simply learning the principles established in this system can lead to a tremendous improvement in one's game. Knowing one's priorities in the midst of chaos provides a distinct advantage, keeping one two steps ahead of the opposition who is left having to react at all times. If you prefer an academic approach to Jiu-jitsu, he's your guy.
