Good details and fundamentals to escapes
Amazing detail and explanation! making it very easy to understand and detail in each position- excellent professor!
Excellent - excellent details! Great teacher !
Great detail from a very tough position to get out of!
Shawn Williams always teaches great fundamentals and details. I don't like this one as much body lock passing and leg pummeling but it's still very much recommended.
The attention to detail and the way the course is arranged makes it very easy to never get stuck in side control again. Shawn Williams is a master at teaching and I'm not sure why there are not more of his videos out there.
Great Instructions!
Great course from coach Shawn Williams, happy to have it in my account
this one is one of my favorites must have
I am half way through the series and I have already been able to apply some of the techniques in my live rolls with outstanding results. I highly recommend that you give this instructional a look if you are struggling with getting stuck in bottom side control.
always great details with Shawn's instructionals
Professor Shawn Williams gives you an escape plan for guard recovery, reversals, sweeps and submissiin attacks. Little details for huge difference. He offers angles from above like in all of his instructionals. Highly recommend!!
This is an invaluable resource for survival, escapes, and submissions from side control bottom!
A comprehensive compendium on how to survive in bad spots. Amazing quality
I find these techniques invaluable. I've been digging through this since just last night at training I struggled to get out of a pin from a higher belt! Every video has additional detail (sometimes that seem minor) like flexing the wrist in an escape I already know, which will make a huge difference for me! I'm looking forward to future trainings with these details in mind.
Shawn Williams shows us a system that allows even small, inflexible old guys like me to go from escapes to attacks.
Pretty detailed instruction, and a huge volume of material! This instructional gives lots of great detailed options for escapes from the side control position. Looking forward to using these techniques to add to my game!
The is a must have video collection in your library of BJJ Fundamentals. Shawn does a great job of explaning the technics. Well worth the money.
EXTREMELY detailed course on side control escapes. As always Shawn explains everything in a clear and easy to understand manner. Video very well done as well with many different angles.
