A great way to go deep into the basics
Mine is a smaller academy. We don’t have a basic curriculum and an advanced one: so it is up to new guys to find a way to understand the underlying mechanisms of the sport, in order to advance. BF’s instructional (which I’ve got for free during the coronavirus crisis, a gesture of utmost generosity from Bernardo’s part) is a GREAT way to fill the gaps. Watch it, the rewatch it, then take notes, then...train, train, train. Thanks again Oss
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻 OSSSMy favorite instructional
Bernardo really seems to care as he explains typical problem areas and simple fixes. As someone who has less than 6 months of training, this is now my favorite instructional.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻If I was stranded on a desert island, this is the fundamentals course I'd want to have with me!
Bernardo offers an awesome, comprehensive course in the BJJ fundamentals to carry you from white to blue and beyond! This is a great resource I'm sure I'll be referencing throughout my BJJ journey. OSS, Professor Faria!

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great overview of the fundamentals
Great course, full of useful moves which will massively improve your rolling.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤗Outstanding content, a must have addition
This video series is an excellent addition to my library. All the fundamentals are clearly explained, the techniques demonstrated well, and it is kept simplistic and easy to follow. For me at my own stage on my bjj journey this is invaluable. A fantastic purchase. Thank you again.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Excellent series
I really love the way Bernardo presents the information. Very thorough and well made. I would highly recommend
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻A Foundation of Basics
This instructional set needs to be in everyone's library. There were some things I did not know that have improved my game. Job well done with these videos.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Just what I needed
Foundation techniques to focus on and build off, really useful.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Excellent Details
Just when I thought I knew what I was doing.....a master instructor gives details to the fundamentals that I missed along the way. At ten years into the BJJ life, this collection was a perfect addition to my instructor library. It has already served my students well by making me a more detailed, fundamentals coach.
Response from BJJ FanaticsKeep up the hard work 🤗👍🏻very good basics video
It covers all the basics and fundamentals and more i just wish it was better organized like in takedowns the guard the mount. I like the fact that i can access it from my cellphone as well.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Love it
Great teacher. Worth the investment.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great Overview
This is great for beginners because you get a good overview of all the fundamentals. You can make sure you don't have any holes in your game before you try to move on to the more advanced stuff, or just refine the basics and still have a great game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻very clear and useful
Direct jujutsu
In depth concepts
A great in depth look at fundamentals that will really improve my game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Excellent instruction for beginners
I actually bought this DVD for my wife who just started BJJ, but I find the dvd useful for my own game (I’ve been practicing BJJ for over 11.5 years). The instruction is clear and easy to follow. I think it has something for beginners and experienced players alike. Thank you Bernardo for yet another wonderful instructional!
Very good
Very good if you need to memorize what you see in your BJJ class or you want to be sure that you are covering all the basics in your learning. Some techniques are more for purple belt IMHO but it is good to be aware of them. If you have a training partner these videos can help you a lot
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Video
Very helpful!
Response from BJJ FanaticsOSSSSExcellent
Great overview of wide variety of positions, controls, submissions, and concepts of jiujitsu.
Response from BJJ FanaticsOSSSDidn't get the dvd
I email you few days ago about my dvd , i have paid 77 euro but got nothing in return. I didn't received the dvd. Do my rating is 1 start .
Response from BJJ FanaticsHi sir, can you email us at bjjsuperdeals@gmail.com? There we can help you much better.The videos are great, and
The videos are great, and Bernardo does a fantastic job of explaining each move. The only reason this is not a 5 is because I wish it would be more detailed. The moves he is showing are fundamental moves, but I know within those moves there are small details I am missing which depending on my opponent does not allow me to complete the move or control my opponent.
Great Buy
I just transitioned from GJJ to BJJ and the holes I had passing guard and sweeping were covered in a very well structured and simple way. Great knowledge that will make me company a long way to come.
Response from BJJ FanaticsNice, everything is different when you have good foundations! Enjoy now!Great video!
I really enjoy learning concepts of jiu-jitsu. Bernardo Faria is easy to learn from and always does a great job teaching. I had the pleasure of meeting him at World Masters last year.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Good title
