Great instructional, very detailed.
excited to counter all the leg lockers at my gym!
Interesting material for more advanced players. Well structured and explained.
E. C. shares his favourite moves to counter leg lock attempts: passes, backtakes and counter submissions. Clear and concise instruction with a good sense of humor. Does not require to much flexibility or atlethicism.
The back take sequences are money
Ethan’s explanation is awesome and lot of stuff is working on higher belts also
This is an excellent Instructional course. The Instructor Ethan Crelinsten speaks clearly and is easy to Understand and to follow his instruction. The course is broken into 4 Volumes, My favorite is countering to a Pass ( Volume 2 ) I watched Instructor Ethan give a private Lesson in the Insiders club, and his easy to understand and step by step Instruction convinced me to purchase this course
Professor Ethan Crelinsten is doint a great job of breaking down the how and why of his style of jiu jitsu. What I like on his style of passing/coutnering is that he is using his arms a lot to spin his own body into the the best spot in front or on top of his opponent. He combines this spinning motion with twister hook backtakes and berimbolos which makes them a lot easier in terms of that the inversion do not has to be so dramatic and can also be done from less flexible people. Highly recommend!!
great dvd!!
A very thorough and innovative instructional
Ethan’s teaching style meshes really well with my method of learning, and despite positions which look like human pretzel-making, he conveys all of what I wanted when I purchased this. Great stuff!
