As usual Giles videos are detail oriented, and this contains hours and hours of great information on how to pass guard, on almost every imaginable scenario. I highly recommend this, to anyone serious about their jiu-jitsu development
great instructional. so much info. a little tough to navigate
I got better at BJJ after this dvd
If your guard gets passed and you like outside foot positioning guards like de la riva, k guard, reverse de la riva and even closed guard, get this thing. It's a game changer.
This is not for the complete beginner, and for the hobbyist, this is realistically a multi year project, but this bundle contains everything you need to know to develop an impassible guard, and it includes some techniques to help you go on the attack out of your guard retention, but it is not an offence instructional
This is truly outstanding work from Giles and Tabak. Clear and thorough explanations with all the important details and no fluff, illustrated with realistic examples from multiple angles. Easily among the best and most important instructionals available.
There is so much in this video that helped me improve my guard and there is so much more I might understand further down the road. Very helpful
an invaluable resource for developing a world-class guard
So many details. Undoubtedly had helped my guard retention leaps and bounds.
This has instantly became the most detailed info I have ever been given about how not to let anyone get passed my gaurd by far the best
Lachlan and Ariel dive deep in depth on advanced retention techniques. A week after watching and drilling this a lot of training partners were complimenting me on my retention.
Taught in a great sequence which builds off of concepts and principles that are vital for all practitioners to know. Learning a tremendous amount from this series and highly recommend making the investment as it will pay dividends.
Basic stuff that will save your life
