great instructional for a half guard
If you are looking to complement your media, with good sweeps and not yawn while watching an instruction, this video is for you.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:A very informative video!
There was a polite explanation for the details, it was easy to understand, and I learned a lot! !
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:TOP
Very top level instructional Nothing else to add Great
Best type of instructional for beginners in my opinion
Aaron has obviously put a lot of work into preparing the instructional before filming it and it shows. Best value for the money, especially for beginners. I will slowly make my way through all his instructionals. Thanks Aaron and thanks BJJ Fanatics!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Great Video
Excellent content and great instruction, highly recommend this series!
We’ll worth it
Super beneficial to the game I play now gives a nice in between to over head and butterfly sweeps and half guard sweeps I feel like I was missing. I’d definitely check out more of Aaron’s instructionals in the future if he has them.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Great instructional, very detailed and

Bardzo dobry materiał . Na pewno przyczyni się do rozwoju mojej półgardy
Great
Like a lot of Aaron’s instructional, it offers a comprehensive system. This is an invaluable feature.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Great introduction to half butterfly guard
Aaron Benzrihem has a clear conceptual way of teaching BJJ. You don't only get technique but ideas on timing etc.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Awesome
I don't think you'll find a more concise and well structured butterfly half guard series out there! Great instructional!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Absolutely loved it
Aaron‘s teaching style is amazing!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Good teacher
Good stuff. I look forward to adding butterfly half to my half guard game. Well organized presentation of information.
Great for No Gi as well.
Have rolled with Aaron twice before and can attest to his ability to flawlessly destroy your base with a baseball slide knee push. Highly recommend his instructional to improve overall understanding of the half guard/butterfly guard position. The Half butterfly is also great for NoGi and everything in this instructional translates perfectly. Let's Go!!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:5 star content
Aaron will give you a whole game plan that will work for any body type! What’s really cool about his teaching style is that he will never rule out any technique and will give you his version/opinion on what he does. He gives you informative content that is applicable in Nogi / Gi for a steal of a price. The fact it doesn’t cost an arm and a leg plus it isn’t a separate instructional from Gi / Nogi is amazing. 10000000/10 man
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Solid Butterfly Instructional
Very clean description and great collection of techniques.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Stack with Aaron's Knee Shield
Combine this DVD with the Knee shield and your guard game is going to get better. Understanding the Half Butterfly in greater details allows you to access it with more ease when applying things like the low knee shield. Loved this one,
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:very good instruction! I have
very good instruction! I have implemented a lot of this into my game and its been great!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Half butterfly guard
My Buddy purchased this instructional and we started use it during our training sessions to drill the Butterfly Half. I've always been interested in the position, but never had success with it. Everytime id put my hook in I was getting passed. With the concept Professor Aaron lays out in the beginning of the instructional fixed the common issues I was having in Establishing the guard and creating movement. I am much more confident in the position and using it as a layer of my guard.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Great !!!
Great !!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Simple and effective
I watched this and 3 days later went to open mat and worked only this. After my 3rd roll I was hitting this once or twice a roll. While it isn't perfect yet, Aaron provides drills that I have been practicing. If you play half guard, this is a must...and if you are an ultra heavy and compete, this is a must.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Exceedingly well done
Compared to most instructionals, this should be 6 stars. Many people are good at jiu jitsu, but few are as good at teaching it as they are at it. Aaron here is a welcome exception, as his teaching is very well organized, thought our, thorough and concise. “Basics to advanced” is exactly what it is, and the content here is enough to last a long time, seemlessy blending tech, concepts, and connections from one position to the next, couldn’t recommend this enough for anyone interesting in half butterfly, or for improving their butterfly or half guard on its own. I think half butterfly is a great gateway for more old school half players to modernize their game, and Aaron is a great teacher to guide that transition
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Buy this Now.
I've bought a lot of instructionals on BJJFanatics and this is without a doubt the best one I've gotten. I was immediately able to implement the techniques and concepts that Aaron discusses in these videos. Top notch instruction and I look forward to more instructionals from him, especially the Single Leg X instructional that he teases in Volume 4.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Basics To Advanced: The Half Butterfly Guard
Aaron does a great job of explaining and showing the necessary details for Half Butterfly guard. This is a great instructional for anyone interested in learning the position. If you aren't sure, I would recommend checking out Aaron's YouTube channel. If you like the videos there, then you will love this instructional.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Super Intuitive and Many Options
Love this one! Simple, intuitive, and just works. I really like having all the options in this guard.
