bernardo faria basics
great video , simple effective basics
Exactly what I was looking for.
Although I have been training for 2 years, I was struggling to implement the techniques I was learning. BJJ was like a puzzle that I couldn’t quite piece together. I always seemed to be lost when rolling; either freezing up or not knowing what to do. The Foundations of BJJ by Bernardo Faria is exactly what I needed. Excellent instructional videos, well explained, and easy to follow. It created a roadmap in my mind. I am finally able to putting the puzzle together and see the whole picture more clearly. Highly recommended.

A must have...
As an older white belt, this series helps me continue learning when I'm not training and is an excellent way to review training lessons.
Excellent Primer for new Practitioners
Bernardo does a good job of clarifying, expanding upon and often improving techniques that many new white belts are likely to learn in their first few months on the mats.

Excellent instructional, I’m opening a new gym in a couple weeks and I got this to solidify the basics. Bernardo’s Gi fundamentals will be taught.

A very useful collection of techniques that are explained clearly and easily understood and effective when applied. I come back to review different techniques when I need to improve that aspect of my game.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great
Everything you need to learn about the fundamentals of bjj in one instructional
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Excellent
This is a fantastic foundational BJJ insructional from Bernardo Faria. There is something here for anyone at any level when you consider the depth of instruction. This is one of my main go-to instructionals!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great for a beginner
The fundamental technique demonstrations and instructions are easy to understand and follow, with all the detail you need to implement them in class. I've tried a few after watching the videos then had the same technique taught in class and it makes it a lot easier to pick up and try in sparring. What's really underrated is all the 'why' of jiu jitsu that is included. You get a broader picture of what makes certain techniques work in certain situations, and what the goal of any given type of move (i.e. sweeps, take downs, etc.) is and where it should be implemented. Overall I'd highly recommend for anyone beginning their jiu jitsu journey.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Encyclopedia of smash passing
Great technique and information! Very easy to get into my game! Love Bernardos style!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Comprehensive
Bernardo's instructional will take you until purple to master. Anyone thinking this is only for beginners is delusional. If you practice this instructional from start to finish, you will have a complete game and will surpass any blue or purple belt anywhere. Just ask your local purple if he knows everything showed here.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great video. Good instruction and
