He is one of the best coach in the world. I wish I bought his videos earlier.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:I was clueless with guard retention
One of my biggest frustrations as a white belt was how easily people passed my guard and pinned me so quickly. Now with this course I have a plan and have significantly upgraded my guard retention game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Danaher is so thorough! No

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Awesome information, really helpful!

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:No video does it better...
With all of the criticism of educators in today's world (some for good reason)....there is a reason WHY educators are paid big $$$. Because they can TEACH. Being a world class practitioner, doesn't make you a world class instructor. Being an experienced teacher, and a high level black belt - is a lethal combination. That's what you get from John's video courses. There is no-one better at breaking down and explaining the concepts of bjj. Buy the video, watch and re-watch.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great Fundamentals
Love the way John breaks everything down and covers all the details.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:John is the top instructor
I enjoy learning from John, the way he breaks down the moves and the way he puts it all into pricinples makes it easy to learn and remember
Always a student
6 months into my BJJ journey, these videos are a fantastic resource
The Hype is real
Danaher is mezmerizing, like listening to Bach. He condenses infomation into the most basic form and delivers it so clearly, really great.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Guard Retention: BJJ Fundamentals - GFF
Having a number of John Danaher instructional I am alway prepared for a college level education of the specific position/techniques. I appreciate the level of detail and full breakdown on each category. The time required for watching anything Danaher has a delayed payoff, meaning, there are instructions where you can learn a technique before class and most likely pull off something close to it, and most likely forget it because it is one technique for one possible outcome…not my experience with Danaher material. My experience with Danaher material is…you spend the time actually learning,digesting, and understanding the material, it becomes part of your long term memory which allows you to see the opponents techniques coming or possible options they have; I also make an index card of the specific areas I want to remember by writing a brief description and where I found it, and the I keep it in a box Under Heading like Guards, submissions, technique chains, etc.. Guard Retention allows you to be efficient and calm and to funnel your opponent to your preferred system…no stone is left unturned with GFF - Guard Retention.

Fantastic explanations and guard retention breakdown from the most brilliant mind jiu jitsu has to offer. This (as well as every other Danaher DVD) is a must!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Amazing
As a fairly new white belt I appreciated the thoroughness of his explanations
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Excellent
This is the single best video I bought here so far. I improved my gaurd immensely doing every drill taught here everyday. This got me my blue belt. I keep return back to this video to gain more understanding of guard retention. Hooyah John.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:As always the way John
As always the way John explains the principles is so valuable to understanding the technique. I could start seeing improvements just through those understandings. Highly recommend. As my professor says you don’t have to worry about escaping if your guard isn’t passed.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Excellent instructional

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Game Changer!
Great instructional! I like how John teaches general concepts as well as retention against specific guard passes. Also, there is much more information on John's instructionals compared to some others. This one is no exception.
