Great instructional!
Great Course
Matt is fantastic teacher—one of the best. This course is a fantastic curriculum, primer, and teaching tool. It’s helped me address some “holes” in my game, as well teach new students. Highly recommended
Fantastic
My number 1 BJJ basics instructional!
Articulative teacher and simplified demonstrations for white belts
If you're a white belt and you're feeling overwhelm with going to classes, feeling lost after the session, and want to understand the bare fundamentals, then I recommend this course for you. I just started my jujitsu journey 4 months ago. I was going to class maybe 1x/week because of work related schedule. Obviously the learning was a lot slowly because of my commitment. As Im going through these videos, I'm able to apply the lessons to my classes for "intent/purposeful learning". I know my hand positioning, my goal in each position, and how to progress in and out of position. Matt speaks very clearly, articulates his thoughts well, and the video demonstrations are very easy to follow. I recommend this to all working adult level white belts.
Excellent foundation
I like Matt Arroyo's experienced and systematic approach to teaching BJJ. He gives you the technique with enough explanation, but doesn't try to dazzle you by over explaining what is working. I always look for instruction from him.
Great BJJ 101 reference
I come back to this instructional frequently to brush up on basics. Highly recommended.
Great Fundamentals!
Matt Arroyo has skill in teaching and making things clear. His clear and organized presentation makes the instructional concise and easy to learn.

Excellent BJJ Basics
Matt is my favorite instructor on YouTube. So I had to purchase this course. He gives you a very good idea of what he’s teaching in a detailed but not overly wordy manner. He gives a perfect balance of instruction and conciseness. Of all the BJJ basics courses I’ve seen or own, this one is my go to #1 !
Great deal for the oricr
A great deal to go back on for refresher

Matt is awesome
Great content for beginners and if want to go over fundamentals.
Better than YouTube
I have watched countless videso from Matt on YouTube. But this comprehensive curriculmum is just mind blowing the amount of detail that is in here.
Must Watch!!!
As someone who’s been training jiu-jitsu for over four years, I thought I had a solid grasp on the fundamentals. But watching this video has been a game-changer for me. It’s incredible how much I’ve learned in such a short time—things I didn’t even realize I was missing. The way it breaks down both gi and no-gi grappling concepts is outstanding, covering submissions, takedowns, and defense in a way that’s clear and easy to follow. If you’re looking to sharpen your fundamentals or gain a deeper understanding of jiu-jitsu, I can’t recommend this video enough. It’s a must-watch!
Very good
I have been following Matt for a long time on social media, appreciating his teaching style. This Is a really good video on fundamentals!
Absolute BEST Instructor
Matt is an absolute legend in the BJJ world and one of the easiest instructors to learn from. This course is the best place to start if you're a white belt, or if you need to review the fundamentals. He is true to the Gracie linage and you will not find a more solid instructor of the fundamentals of the sport than right here!
Great Intro course!
Great content and easy to follow!
Five stars
Very good training course , very useful
great fundamentals
excellent fundamentals explanation
Perfect! Simple as that
I just started one year ago with zero Dichtung experience and this curriculum is extremely helpful! Matt goes into details, shows everything from different angles, and the layout is super neat. A perfect overview of the basics I would say even though you can also find complex techniques as far as I can tell as a beginner. On top Matt is a humorous guy. I love it and use it a lot.
Amazing!
Love Matt! And love this course. I was never taught some of these very fundamental moves, and this course has helped so so much!
Intro BJJ Curriculum
All of Matt Arroyo's Instructionals are very good. Always has solid techniques with awesome details. Great instructional.
excellent course
old school bjj, great beginner content; clear and concise with a sense of humor. my favorite instructional out of 5 that I've purchased
great Basics!
I roll at a gym, which I love, that doesn't have a basics class. I was missing the basics rolling against younger belts and getting by. now I can see the improvements as I work my basics and I am winning more and surprising the higher belts that I roll with. great instruction method makes it easy to learn!

I'm lucky enough to train at Matt Arroyo's gym Gracie Tampa South. I watch the intro videos all the time because they are outstanding. Fundamentals and the small details make all the difference and these videos really help remind me of what I'm doing right or what I'm doing wrong. Highly recommended!
