The reviews

• Extremely good

  very technical and great way to master a move

  Jack W.March 16, 2026United StatesVerified buyerWhite belt1-3 yrs training

• Excellent

  Instruction vraiment top les détails sont précis et bien expliqué.

  Fabrice C.February 19, 2026FranceVerified buyerBlack belt10-12 yrs training

• Simply the best

  The first three chapters alone make Feet to the Floor, Partly One worth watching. They are encouraging, influential, and foundational in a way that many grapplers overlook. By focusing on grip-breaking, movement, stance, and positional dominance before introducing throws, Danaher provides a blueprint for long-term success in stand-up grappling. If you care about understanding takedowns at a deep, structural level—not just collecting techniques—this instructional delivers.

  Great Video course

• Terrific Release

  I bought this video because my standing game is less developed than my ground game, and I was hoping it would help. (It did.) I was pleasantly surprised to see John sharing some of his wisdom from his bouncer days. I wasn't expecting that, but it was a definite bonus!

• Very informative and practical.

  I like how John shows each move in great detail, while he also lists common mistakes with the move. He also speaks to the practicality of the moves from a point system or a fight on the street. John is an engineer of jiu jitsu!

• Stand up grappling fundamentals master class

  This was desperately needed and John Danaher was the one who had to do it. There is no person alive that spells out the fundamental understanding and core concepts of BJJ like John. Don’t sleep on John’s Farther Faster and Feet to Floor series if you only do no-gi. His gi instrumental are where his best fundamentals are taught. Have almost everything he has put out and love it all but the no-gi material assumes you already have the base concepts presented in his gi series. Well worth the cost.

  john is the man

  Louis C.June 15, 2025United StatesVerified buyerWhite belt1-3 yrs training

• Perfect instructional for Stand Up

  I started in BJJ without stand-up, but realized my game was incomplete. This DVD helped me understand the basics and eventually got me to a point where I feel comfortable standing up and getting a takedown.

• Feet to floor 1 John Danaher

  Great to learn about this 3 finger grip. I am a black belt in judo and didn't know this. John Danaher knowledge is super impressive 🙏

  Christopher K.January 18, 2025IrelandVerified buyerBlue belt1-3 yrs training

• Excellent for Gi

  This is an excellent standup course for the gi. However if you prefer no gi or techniques that will work in either setting, I would recommend the fastest way by John danaher. Both excellent though.

  Liam H.January 16, 2025United StatesBlue belt4-6 yrs training

  Excellent product.

• Great product

  Great for beginners but also very dense. Don’t expect to finish this one in a few sittings. And don’t expect to implement even half of it, EVER. Very dense, if you’re into that

  David R.November 29, 2024United StatesVerified buyerPurple belt4-6 yrs training

• Must have

  Definitely a must have as the first step in improving your gi takedown game

  William M.November 15, 2024United StatesVerified buyerPurple belt4-6 yrs training

• Best intro to Judo and street jiu jitsu

  This is really a beginner's judo instructional, adapted for the sport of jiu jitsu. It's also one of the few street fighting instructionals out there (parts 7 & 8 are all about using jiu jitsu in real world settings). A great buy

• Judo principles applied to jiu jitsu

  Another outstanding instructional from a coach who has a deep understanding of not just the techniques themselves, but the context in which they need to be applied. This series helped me narrow my focus when it comes to standing techniques, especially when it comes to classic judo throws.
