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.
Just purchased this one and finished the first session and I already feel I should give a review. He shows angles and explain why this and whatnot. I recommend it
Great video it's my daily watch at least30 minutes
Very nice instructional.
Great cant just have 1
Everyone in my Gym "studie" through tik tok or instagram, just learning new movements, usually advanced ones that they do not get to use when rolling. This is basically my base and what have made me start to understand BJJ
Super easy to digest as a beginner
It was a great instructional and it gives you a good overview of the fundamental positions

I haven't been training long and have been at it myself for about six months. the lessons taught here have been a refresher and a review for what i have been learning doing classes. when i first started i was worried about being able to retain the lessons i was being taught in person. these videos cover all the fundamentals i have learn plus are well explained simply so they are easy to understand and can be implemented during rolls. they are a valuable asset to return to when you are trying to learn the little things that make the techniques work. having these videos has been a valuable learning tool to complement all the lessons and training i have done so far.
Clear and straight forward great for beginners
Great for the basics highly recommended
Excellent
Fantastic general overall view of the game. Really good to just go in and pick an area you’re working on.
Did love all the infos to perfect and correct my base in jiu-jitsu. I recommand it to all.
There's an absolute wealth of knowledge to be absorbed here. A huge honour for ME.
I clearly understood this procedure—as well as others—thanks to the technical details provided by Bernardo in this course. It is a huge/tremendous honor for me to learn directly from him.
I love this stuff!
Great functional course. Fast, easy and functional fundamentals course.

Every technique explain in 3 minutes and with great details! That's so useful!
This is the most helpful instructional there is to elevate my game. Fundamentals are always key! It's also easy to follow.

I'm older 40+ brand new to JuJu done a few classes tore my rotator in trad juju so not to miss out I bought this Good product as it what it all depends on (fundamentals) instead of being mullered on the mats the plan is actively take part to grow in the game
As a famous saying goes "details matter". very useful reviewal reminder of the basics with neat details that gives beginners also a starter kit of useful bjj techniques.
This is a good intro for anyone just starting out

This is the best introduction for any level of grappling. Excellent for beginners with a simple structure for learning, a must have in the library.
This will help you go faster in the go especially as a beginner and give you the understanding of what you need if your going into your first class watch and study this weeks and months before to walk in with a better understanding and impress the instructors
Solid knowledge for complete beginners. It's a good introduction for beginners, The course shows not only the ground but also the stand, which is also a big advantage.
