Easy to follow videos!
Excellent videos. Bernardo’s lessons are very easy to follow. As a white belt I’m always looking for something easy to incorporate into my evening training, none of these overly complex moves that I see some of the higher belts pulling off (on me usually lol), which still don’t make sense to me just yet. These lessons feel like the foundation I need.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Fundamental
This is an excellent foundation to understanding the major positions and options from them for jiu jitsu. Highly recommended for beginners or those looking to relearn the things they have forgotten.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Hands down my favourite Instructor!
Bernardo Faria is hands down my favourite BJJ instructor! Why? Because he is enthusiastic and entertaining about what he teaches. He is clear and concise and doesn't bog down in unnecessary complicated details. Professor Faria is excited about what he teaches and shares personal anecdotes about what makes the techniques successful.

Great beginner "encyclopedia" of moves!
Great starter information
I’ve only been training jiu jitsu for about a month and wanted something to augment my time on the mat. This series is perfect. It helped me to recognize the different positions I found myself in and what to do in those positions. Instruction was clear and concise and was organized and easy to follow.

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Not quite what I needed

Huge honor

Bernardo is the man. This has to be one of the best instructional intros you will ever buy.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great value, clear details without overwhelming
Bernardo's instructional is well-structured and detailed, without being overwhelming. The content is delivered quickly, and the bookmarks make it easy to re-watch sections, giving me a great value for money. My best results have been taking one or two techniques from the instructional and trying to implement them in rolling each week.
