A fantastic BJJ 101 basics instructional by a BJJ GOAT.
I remember watching this back when I was early in my journey and loved it. Great instructional. My only complaint is teaching "jumping closed guard" in the very first module for beginners lol. But other than that it's awesome.
I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times
Great foundations
Perfect demo of foundational techniques
Very helpful
Good overview of BJJ basics
Still learning but this is great to to watch in between rolls to understand what I did wrong.
Foundations of BJJ by Bernardo Faria is a clear, beginner-friendly instructional focused on high-percentage fundamentals. His detailed teaching style makes techniques easy to understand and apply. It’s excellent for building a solid base.
Very informative so far, can’t wait to keep drilling and trying out new moves
world champ x amount; well explained and repeated for clarity obviously need to do this with a partner ,underpinning knowledge from this another angle from your own prof//sensei gives more depth(angle) to add to your game or perhaps like me hard of hearing miss what is said in class so the repeat here is much needed or just simply a refresher either way i found it worthwhile stay safe
I learned a tonne that I implemented as soon as I could little bit by little bit. Improved by beginner game 10 fold.
Great introduction to the foundations!
I’m 47 and a white belt. This series of lessons makes the learning process digestible and accessible. The progress I have made in my game, thanks to Bernardo’s expert coaching, is noticed by the whole gym. Get this lesson and you WILL get better. Thanks BJJ Fanatics.
Always a good idea to work on the basics. These are all taught and demonstrated in a clear, simple manner. Just need me some mats for home and will be practicing the fundamentals. Looking to get my wife caught up.

I missed alot of basic classes, and just rolled. Thanks Bernard for helping those gaps.
really enjoy this instructional. good for beginners and experienced folks will still find this information useful
This was one of the very first BJJ instructional courses that I ever bought. As a white belt, this was already super helpful, but not that I am rewatching it as a blue belt, I am picking up a lot more details from this course that I never saw when I just started and purchased this course. No matter your belt level, this course is great to either build or perfect your BJJ fundamentals. I would highly recommend!
Great for those starting out to gain a well rounded understanding of all basic concepts and to dive deeper into things maybe not explained well during class.
I have practiced jiu-jitsu for three years. but This video included some techniques I wasn't familiar with.
