Great resource
The combination of instruction and video study Lachlan provides allows for better consumption of new material.
great fundamentals, most important for white belts to learn
His instruction is very clear and he goes at a great pace for me, the instructional is very organized and you can go back and reference the parts you want to see as needed
I love the content from Lachlan because he goes in with details and some video study. He gives it his best with every instruction.

Very helpful instructional that I keep coming back to and always pick up useful details. Very extensive and clear instruction.
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!
I am enjoying his escapes. I have another escape video, but that one drones on a bit... This is easy to follow.
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.
If you are starting jujitsu this is a must have.
I have been returning to this instructional for years, it is a tresure trove of information.
A great instructional from one one of the best. Highly recommend it!
great instructional
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
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
Great overview of common positions one will get stuck in. Lachlan is one of the best BJJ Fanatics instructors.
Clear direct instruction... no superfluous information. love it.
cracker
This is a MUST HAVE! for any jits player, so glad it covers both gi/ no-gi!! get a ***** if you dont have anyone to drill with, thanks for this!
Great content
such a great foundation
excellently tied together
Great instructional! After initially watching it I still return to reference various escapes.
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.
