As Old School as Old School gets
Great instructional form one of the OGs and the technical master mind behind Xande Ribeiros success as a competitor. Great overview for beginners. And some fine details for advanced practitioner.
Excellent Guide for Bjj practitioners
Excellent videos that clearly explain the fundamentals of BJJ, enabling effective grappling at all levels. The escape techniques and guard passing moves were particularly useful to me. I recommend it, and I believe Ribeiro is an excellent teacher.
True to the Book
Jiu-Jitsu University is one of my favourite jiu-jitsu books of all time. At the same time, there are certain skills that are better taught through video, and grappling is one of them. I was delighted, therefore, when I saw BJJ Fanatics had released a video version of the book. I highly recommend this to anyone who has benefited from the book.
Fundamental understanding with advanced efficiency
Saulo gives you a lot of information spanning a very broad group of topics. He focuses in on the principles and details he finds are the most important while curating the techniques he finds the most efficient and accessible for all ages and body types.
Good Detailed Coverage
I liked the original book, but in this instructional, he adds more and clarifies some of what the pictures in the book couldn't.

SUPER COOL
I HAD THE BOOK FOR YEARS REALLY COOL TO HAVE THE VIDEO NOW

Excellent
An excellent companion to his amazing book, fills in gaps with a lot of details on his system.
Great video!
It is super helpful to see Saulo demonstrating the techniques he originally illustrated in his book, Jiu Jitsu University. In addition to the original content, Saulo includes details not mentioned in the original text, solo exercises, and stand up/take down techniques. This was a very helpful course and I would definitely recommend it. Thank you BJJ Fanatics and Saulo!

Great fundamentals
Great for understanding the basics
Fabulous training
This is a great series to give details to the different belt ranks that will help you survive your jiujitsu journey.
Jiu Jitsu University
Exactly the tutorial this book needed, thank you!
University series
This is a great video series. It gives you the details you need to survive and thrive in a jiujitsu environment.
JIU JITSU University
This tutorial is full of mastery tips and things I initially didn't learn from my instructors during my white belt phase. Now I can clean up some of my weak points and become a more difficult person to submit like Jon Fitch. Excellent instructor, excellent syllabus and a honest view of BJJ.
Good fundamental details
Still working my way through but really enjoying watching in my down time. Some details that are not said aloud in class I am able to find in here and it helps supplement my in person learning.
University
Ribeiro's JJ University is a great guide. I think it is one of the best series a new practitioner can purchase. There are plenty of clear instructions for people at every level of the game.

Complete Library of Details
This is a comprehensive library of defensive and offensive techniques with the important subtle details and mechanics to make them work in a modern competitive setting. Highly recommended resource.
Great footage
Builds your game from the start with lots of focus on defence before eventually looking at submissions.
Very comprehensive
The sequential presentation by Saulo is excellent... Very comprehensive content for someone new to the game.
The best
I’m really happy.
Great
Awesome video
The Mind of a World Champion
I’ve had the opportunity to train under Saulo in the Gracie Tijuca Academy, from 1995 to 1999. It stands out how much Saulo has evolved as an instructor. But I think the best of this instructional is that it shows how Saulo’s mind works, how he sees Jiu-Jitsu. I recommend to everyone.
Great instructional
Really helped clean up my jiu jitsu overall.
Best money I’ve spent on BJJ instructionals
Each lesson is straight to the point and gives you a seminar worth of value every few mins
Thank you for this.
A remarkable depth of knowledge and an exceptionally high level of detail from a true legend
For points.

Excellent Tutorial
I have the Jiu Jitsu University book, but it's so much easier to follow along with Professor Saulo Ribeiro in the video. Love all the details and explanations.
Long time martial artist who never had the time to actually finish BJJ but have trained in all sorts of Japanese arts and VingTsun Gung Fu
Great video
Love it I have the book
Jiu jitsu training course

Brilliant perspective and well presented.
Bought the book and this video series is a game changer that pairs up with the book nicely.

SIX BLADES AND SAULO FOREVER
This is the style of jiujitsu that changed my practice forever. Thank you Professor Saulo. Mad respect
Jiu Jitsu University-Saulo Ribeiro
I learned under Sensei Saulo so the material is familiar to me but the series is detailed and reflects the evolution of the positions in real time. The series helps to fine tune and further enhance positions. The fine details are what makes or breaks ones Jiu Jitsu. Sensei Saulo can break a game down better than anyone so it doesn't matter what level you are, this series is made to enhance your game and understanding of Jiu Jitsu.
Jiu Jitsu University by Saulo Ribeiro
This book has been with me since the beginning of my BJJ journey, and the instructional video is truly one of the best and most comprehensive I've seen. Absolutely recommend it.

Learning Again from My Sensei Saulo Ribeiro
I have had the privilege of being one of Sensei Saulo Ribeiro’s students, and his new Jiu-Jitsu instructional course truly reflects the depth of his teaching. Every detail is clear, methodical, and full of the wisdom that makes his academy world renowned. The techniques are presented with the same patience and precision that I experienced learning directly from him. Whether you are a beginner or an advanced practitioner, this course delivers the essence of Jiu Jitsu and the philosophy that Saulo lives by. Highly recommended for anyone serious about improving their game.
Great!
Excellent instructional. Highly recommend
