Dynamic De La Riva Guard by Otavio Souza
Classic De La Riva game from Prof Otavio.
Great Video!
Fantastic concepts and explanations by Professor Otavio Sousa!
Great Details!
Ive only sat through the first part of this instructional. Otavio does a great job teaching and explaining the Dela Riva guard. I was easily able to enter the position and sweep my opponent the first time I tried the first basic sweep. Im definitely going to like this guard and im sure the instructional will only get better! Great job Otavio and thanks BJJ fanatics for providing such great content!

Muitos detalhes essenciais para ter maior- sucessso jogando de Sit Up guard.
to be honest, better than expected.
Ofcourse, Otavio is known as a great competeter though, probably many BJJ lover never heard his instructions. de la hiva has became the most popular and basic guard in this 10 years. but ofcourse, belimbolo is lot always the first option for many people(especially for the bigger). this instruction is more focusing on basic but super important dela viva techniques. worth to check it.

I've never really attempted to use de la riva extensively and this instructional has shown me that I've been missing out. The attention to detail is excellent and for the first time I feel organized and often in control using de la riva.

Otavio. Sousa appears as a clear guide of how to use DLR fundamentals and how to connect them. Clear concepts about how to work with proper angles and when to transition to different DLR follow ups to sweep and submlt. Highly recommend!!

Dynamic De La Riva Guard by Otavio Sousa
A top notch and a fantastic instructional on the De La Riva Guard. Professor Sousa is a 3 time Middleweight World Champion, and is very thorough when it comes to teaching. This instructional no exception, and I highly recommend this if you want to improve your De La Riva Guard. This is Pure Gold
De La Riva on point
Professor O.S. gives a clear guide how to use DLR fundamentals and how to connect them. He offers clear concepts about how to work with proper angles and when to transition to other DLR combos and sit ups to sweep and submit.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Really comprehensive DLR system
I wanted to get an instructional with high percentage system for DLR guard because I tend to land in it so often and Mr. Sousa's DVD appeared to be the perfect match. After watching it only once I was able to hit some moves in the sparring, so now I'm actively working through these techniques in depth and I'm really happy that I decided to buy it. It's not a beginner instructional, but the techniques here are quite simple to learn fast and effective enough to be rewarded with hitting them on your opponents while rolling straight away. They seem to me to be especially good for strong and heavy guys who love to play guard. Highly recommended for those who want to level up their DLR game and are looking for a starting point.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🔥Great Instructional!
Awesome system of sweeps and submissions coming from the de la riva guard. Otavio Sousa has been executing these techniques in the highest level of competition for many years so it is great to learn the key details directly from him.

Professor Otavio Sousa provides his DLR centered toolkit. You will get clear explanaitions of each technique as well as tips when you should take your time for the next step and increasing the level of control and when to accelerate precise. What too makes this instruxtional extra worthy are all the pisutional and postural details on adjustment to secure and hit the technique efficient and safe! Highly recommend!!

Really good instruction to develop a good De la riva game, covers all scenarios and reactions for the initial moves. Otavio is a great professor, proven and battle tested moves
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Awesome
I remember watching highlights of his sweeps and wishing I could learn more details from then a few months later this came out. These sweeps can be done at all levels sense they don't require a lot of flexibility like most others. Great work!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Excellent
Really good instruction on the De La Riva guard
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great DVD
The techniques shown in this instructional is the exact same techniques Otavio Sousa uses in his competition. Same techniques that won him 3 world championships. Sousa is incredibly athletic but the techniques he shown doesn't require athleticism or flexibility. His sit up guard is what made me pull the trigger on his instructional and I was not disappointed. Everyone can benefit from white belt to black belt.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Extreme details
This is game changing! Have you ever had one option shut down? Well this instructional gives you multi options to incorporate into your game. Very high level stuff!!
