awesome instruction
Great first principles
great quality course
The bundle offers a comprehensive approach for beginner like me to build an all-rounded game from bottom to top! Still studying it and all contents worth watching repeatedly!
don't ask for a review in the middle of my instructional
Great explanation of basic positions. Very easy to remember when going to practice during the week. Great positioning awareness.
Excellent academic approach. Having a curriculum to follow with time stamps to refer back to makes note taking and studying much more efficient.
comprehensive and complete.
good
Danaher very clearly explains all the important Concepts.
My first class was with John Danaher years ago when he was a purple belt. I always regretted not training more with John when I had the opportunity. He was always an amazing teacher. this video series is an perfect foundation for jiu-jitsu education. I feel like I have a second chance to train with Mr. Danaher. The fundenmentals instruction in this series is the best there is. Thank you John Danaher and BJJ Fanatics for making this series.
One of the best explaining jiu-jitsu, make it easy to keep learning
like a cheat code for your game!
Danaher's stuff is unique, and you either love it or it isn't for you. I love it and his level of detail is unparalleled.
great
i have never seen jiujitsu broken down to this level of detail.
Simplemente lo más técnico que e visto
John Danaher does a great job at breaking down the fundamentals of jiu-jitsu in a series of comprehensive well structured videos. If you have an analytical approach to the sport, this series will give you very solid foundations to build your game.
good
tres bon dvd , je le recommande a tout le monde
Of course you would expect an instructional put together by a philosophy doctoral candidate to be an absolute study, and this delivers. 10/10 improving my jiu jitsu game.
Danaher's methodical approach is perfect for me. I'm approaching the end of my first year of BJJ and have been a bit frustrated. Danaher has finally illuminated the techniques I've been learning in a heuristic method that has finally made them click. His cerebral approach to BJJ may not be for everyone but it is perfect for me. I almost feel like I'm his private student! Awesome!
awesome explanation!!!
The best instructional series I've ever studied! I'ts really made a difference in my game. If you feel like your game is stagnating, this series could really kick you up to the next level. It's a fundamental series, but there were some techniques that I had never seen before. Tons of content. I highly recommend.
Excelentes conceptos básicos y medios para desarrollar un juego sólido. Desde que empecé a aplicar los conceptos, cambió muchísimo mi juego y entiendo mejor lo que hago.
Absolutely amazing series by Professor Danaher. I am a white belt and have already seen drastic improvements in my game by only working on the first 10 episodes! I can’t wait to see what it’ll be once I’ve made it through all 64 videos of instruction. By focusing on defense and being able to get out of pins and back into guard, it has drastically improved my confidence. Thank you so much for the amazing material!
World class instruction by one of the best jiu-jitsu minds of all time. John Danaher breaks down complex movements and ideas into their most basic components and makes the experience digestible. A truly exceptional coach who really cares about the details and getting them right. I really like the concepts and the "why" behind the details with examples. A very clear, concise communicator who is the best teacher I've ever seen. I'm learning a lot and have been improving in class due to his expert instruction. Highly recommended!
Detailed instructions and demonstrations. Very useful.
I find having video lessons to review has really helped my development as I am able to bring more ideas to the table for open mat sparring sessions that just what is covered in class. being able to have two or three new things to try each week instead of a lower amount covered in class makes progress feel much faster. I can get another overview of new skills taught in class explained in a different way as well as dig deeper in things that have tripped me up in sparring sessions with better skilled opponents. It is quite the price but there is a lot of information, watch for the sales but in conclusion I think it is money well spent.
I just started the program and am blown away by the content. John Danaher is by far the best Jiu-Jitsu instructor I've come across. John's understanding of Jiu-Jitsu is deep, and he breaks it down into simple instructions that beginners can digest. I Jiu-Jitsu students at all levels can benefit from this content and strengthen their fundamentals.
Best
This is essential for Gi fundamentals
Just buy John Danaher’s dvd
As usual, John Danaher is the gold standard for coaching and instruction. Techniques and principles are detailed superbly well, and I am now far more comfortable with the fundamentals - not just for my own performance on the mat, but when coaching too. Thank you very much Mr Danaher!
I'm a newby white belt and this series is perfect for me to understand basic fundamentals.
It may seem expensive, but you’re taking the best foundational course around with a big discount. Wish i had it sooner.
Masses of details and tricks, as well as good broad rules for all fundamental positions. A lot of minute detail to process though, might not be the best for short attentions spans.
My thoughts here mirror my thoughts of Enter the System. John Danaher is a master practitioner, teacher, and teacher of teachers. His results speak for themselves. I purchased this instructional series to help me teach the students of my new academy and put some structure around my own curriculum. Through studying John Danaher and his teaching style, I have improved my own and it shows in the development of my students. I recommend this series for anyone interested in taking their Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu skills to the next level and for anyone needing help structuring their academy's curriculum to help your students make progress faster.
John's thorough breakdowns and lessons are amazing as he breakdowns the mechanics of the sport so we can understand why we move in the sport! Helps build great fundamentals and has helped me with my training! Thank you John!
This is a must have for anyone looking to focus on details and have a complete package regarding their Jits game. John breaks it down in a simple and easy to understand way and I appreciate his goal of having his students be aggressive attacking with submissions and not concerned about being placed in a bad position! This is what has been missing with the game!! Thank you, Professor Danaher!
While I was in a bit of sticker shock at first, everyone I talked to said that Danaher's GFF series was the best way to knock off the rust and get myself grappling at a higher level than ever after taking 7 years off. After working through the Pins and Escapes series it's already paid for itself. Danaher tends to be a little repetitive, but it makes sense given the immense amount of info he provides! After a few weeks I've already noticed a significant improvement in my bottom game. Next up is learning some new positions and submissions! 5/5 stars, would recommend.
What an amazing instructional video! The techniques are broken down so perfectly. It’s very easy to understand an apply. And it’s great to watch even if you don’t have a person to train with while watching the videos.
I'm a brown belt and I refer to it all the time.
So much amazing knowledge glad I found this! The way John explains everything is precise and to the point.Thanks To John for making these series of videos!
Excellent,
Beyond amazing! Thank Mr. Danaher! You are a true Sensei.
I really enjoy Danaher’s take on the fundamentals of BJJ. Great series.
I wish I had watched this video series when I first started training, it's exactly what it purports to be - a thorough, essential and effective foundation. The cost is very reasonable when you consider you would be lucky to get this much information from a school over the course of a year.
