• Guard Retention Anthology

  I have spent 16 years obsessing over guard retention, and even now, I’m still navigating the trial and error of the game. This instructional is phenomenal. It’s not just the sheer volume of information provided; it feels as though the course is systematically answering every question I’ve gathered throughout my Jiu-Jitsu journey. While the content is massive and requires intense focus to digest, it is worth every penny

• Complete No-Gi K Guard System for Modern Grappling

  This instructional offers a clear, systematic, and highly practical approach to the No-Gi K Guard. Lachlan Giles breaks down concepts, entries, and transitions in a way that makes even complex positions easy to understand and apply. Excellent focus on guard retention, off-balancing, sweeps, and leg lock pathways, with a strong emphasis on positioning and decision-making. Perfect for grapplers who want a modern, structured open guard game that works against standing and kneeling opponents.

  This is going to be a ton of information, but is the best, most comprehensive series for learning how to retain you guard. If you invest in these I guarantee all of the dumb open guard stuff you want to do will be accessible because no one will be able to pass your guard.

  Listen, you want something that will change your game and make an impact. This instructional does that and offers a nice other option to the inside guard retention philosophy of New Wave. The only caveat is that being flexible really helps with this instructional, which I am, but if you are not might be tough.
