Fundamental escapes
Very helpful instructional that I keep coming back to and always pick up useful details. Very extensive and clear instruction.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Worth your money!
Essential viewing! goes in depth on all positional and submission escapes, troubleshooting and luve rolling scenarios. very good production value and Lachlan is such a great teacher, very articulate and knows his jiujitsu. very valuable resource for white belts especially!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Helping me prevent getting choked
I am enjoying his escapes. I have another escape video, but that one drones on a bit... This is easy to follow.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great instructional for escaping
This is a must have for beginner especially, because they always get stuck in these positions. so it's a must that they learn to escape. This instructional is great for Gi and No-Gi, it has clear direct instruction, also very detailed but not in a boring way. Lachlan is a good instructor and it's a great product.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗So much
First video of mine by Giles. This was awesome. So much information. I will have to rewatch it multiple times to really absorb it. Loved it
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Well worth it
Another solid bundle from lachlan. As usual detailed explanations Solid conceps and good explanations of how to install each frame. The only issue i have with this one is the formatting is a bit annoying. For example there are sometimes more than one position in each section

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗lachlan escapes
excellently tied together
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great Instructional!
Great instructional! After initially watching it I still return to reference various escapes.
Just great!
love the structure, i had a lot of trouble with side control from bigger guys after 2 months i still have problems with it, but there is nearly always a way out and its more exsorsting for them then for me.
Great Foundation
This is an excellent foundation to your game at any level of BJJ skills. Would recommend to anyone.
Top-notch
Lachlan's instructionals are very detailed. If you search for a technic or position belonging to an instructional you have bought from him you will find the answer in the instructional. He doesn't omit somesting. Highly recommend.
Amazing Escape Fundamentals
Lachlan Giles is an amazing instructor who is very articulate and smooth with his teachings. This really helped me solidify my base knowledge of escapes.
Great when you’re stuck
Lachlan is a great teacher and is excellent at showing you exactly how the mechanics work for each technique. This is a great video to come back to if you have been getting stuck in a position and need a new escape method.
Helps me not get stuck
I had trouble getting stuck in certain positions at times. Especially under bigger stronger guys, but using these methods and referring to them when needed has helped me not get stuck nearly as often
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great instructional, for both gi and no gi
I have several escapes instructional, but this one was (and still is) the most useful. Focusing on escapes was the best decision, and I still refer to this DVD on a regular basis. Also, it is great that both gi and no-gi are covered in the same instructional.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Good tutorial
Great video very effective for me in mastering successful escapes

I have implemented these escapes and even higher belts are struggling to keep me pinned.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Become Houdini
Lacklan shows you the ins and outs of escaping a whole slew of positions in a very concise manner. Well thought out, with world-class instruction. I highly recommend this and every other instructional he produces.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great foundation
This course has really helped me to get out of positions that I commonly find myself in
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Quality details
Well planned, methodical, detailed but not to verbose. Lachlan is a good instructor and makes great products.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Good tutorial
I Have watched a few parts of the tutorial a few Times after getting caugh during some sparrings. I go back to it on a weekly base since i purchased it. Like all of the Lachlan Giles tutorials it is extremely well made.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Good teach
He is good teacher
great
great
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻amazing
one of the best teacher in the game
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻I no longer feel lost
This gave me a systematic approach to escaping from every key position. I learned a ton, even about the basic mount escapes that I thought I knew
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Exactly what I was looking for
It is a great series that covers defence from all the main disadvantageous positions and their variants. The contents are extremely well laid-out; having an easily-navigable encyclopedia of escapes on your phone is incredibly helpful to figure out what you should have been doing just after the sessions, while the roll is still fresh in your mind.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Get out of bad spots
Simple and easy to implement texhniques
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Best first purchase on BJJFanatics!
