My submission defence was definitely a gap in my game, apart from initially just avoiding them (not always possible) but the principles from this has been helpful in improving this for me. Plus Craig is a great instructor which really helps.
Good positional escapes explained very well by Craig Jones.
Simple and essential escapes, Thanks Craig!!
Great stuff from Craig as always
Fantastic stuff, really valuable techniques and strategies. I'm looking forward to adding this to my game.
Simple and to the point.
The concepts are explained in a simple way that’s I found easy to retain and understand
His instructional is awesome, like all his other instructionals. This video is intended to cover what jones considers the basic escapes, which do not match up exactly with what the gracies or probably your instructor would consider the foundational escapes. Very useful. The "keep jiu jitsu ***" tshirt is very distracting, wish he did not wear that. I'm pretty sure my wife has grave concerns about me because she saw me watching a craig jones instructional while wearing that shirt. But like I said, great instructional, like the other craig jones instructionals. best teacher on bjj fanatics imo by far.
It does a good job covering Side Control, Mount, and Back Escapes. Honestly though, the price isn't worth it when you compare it to other escapes videos. I love Craigs instructionals and have a lot, but this one is pricey and doesn't give you anything that other escape videos would give you for a cheaper price. I wish he combined this video with his Front Head lock escapes instructional. I think that would justify the price.
Tons of useful, practical techniques
great
I've become a 2minute master :)
:-)
awesome video, nice explanation
great review of positional escapes immediately helped my game
just enough details without getting too granular
Craig Jones explains things clearly and in a way that most of the techniques can be applied in live training.
High level guide to building strong defensive fundamentals.
Awesome. Love Craig's way of explaining things.
Craig does an excellent job at taking the basic positions that you'd typically get pinned in (mount, side control, and back control) and giving you simple yet effective escapes for these positions. worth every penny.
really just the basics, but it really helps with keeping the momentum going with people always passing my guard
Awesome instructional.
Excellent! Craig's details and easy to understand instruction is the best. This is no exception.
truly Awsome ! one of the best escape instructions. clear communication and coincide!
