Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗missing piece
I trained bjj at one gym before moving (twice) and training at another ultimately ending at a judo club with a former Egyptian Olympian who also had sambo experience. The first gym leg locks were all but banned. the second allowed some, but he nearly never taught them except an occasional straight ankle lock. the second gym had open mats often, and one day this skinny blue belt came in and wiped out most of the gym with heelhooks. he even tapped a guy who went on to win at masters pan ams. this instructional covers the missing piece from the first two gyms, what I'd wanted to learn so bad but never got. my instructor now has some unique leglocks from sambo, but Danaher's system is called The System for a reason. additionally I've trained Muay Thai, karate, and have been focusing boxing heavily the past couple of years preparing for mma. leg locks are something you don't want to be clueless about, on top of being an incredible skill in your arsenal they can be your Achilles heel if you don't know them.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Excellent Instructional
Be prepared to spend many hours practicing the techniques, principles, and drills on resisting opponents. I made condensed notes as a reference. Just on the sweeps alone I have seen a drastic improvement in my game. I now feel much more confident in attacking and defending leg-locks.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Comprehensive Introduction
I found that Danaher's teaching style suits my learning preferences rather well. The instructional provides a thorough overview of core concepts in this particular leg locking system, and the concepts have provided me enough of a foundation to continue exploring ideas on my own.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻The level of detail in
The level of detail in this instructional series is amazing. John Danaher goes I to every detail of the leg lock game. You can't absorb all the information the first viewing. You'll learn fundamentals, entries, control, numerous submissions, potential problems and solid solutions. Before I purchased this content, my leg lock understanding was superficial, now I feel I have a much deeper understanding that I can apply.

Super Detailed instructional that gave me a peek into the depth of the leg lock game. Have had much success defending leg locks when the higher belts try them. Highly Recommended.

With no doubt one of the best leglock instructionals around with the signature of John Danaher. A lot of emphasis is given to the understanding of the leglock game mechanics and it will surely contribute to your development and inspire you further.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Comprehensive
Video was really well produced. It was great to see such an in depth review of this position. This coach literally rebuilt the leg lock game and introduced the concept of the system. The content was really good.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻I learned leglocks from Frank
I learned leglocks from Frank Shamrock back in the 90’s. I got away from it to focus on fundamentals especially passing. Now as a purple belt I recently started reworking some of my old techniques and found Danahers game the perfect update and introduction to what the modern leg game looks like.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Brutal, amazing explications
Brutal, amazing explications
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Most comprehensive instructional
This is easily the best instructional I've ever seen. It is systematically broken down and deals with the common defenses seen when applying leg locks. There is a TON of information and will take you weeks to truly understand all the material there. john breaks down the absolute fundamentals for beginners interested in leg locks. I'm a purple belt, but a white belt in legs. This will definitely improve my game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻The best!
Extremely comprehensive instructional on the leg lock game. Danaher is the “professor x” of jiu jitsu, you will not be disappointed with any of his instructionals.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗The BEST Leg Lock Training System EVER!

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻John Danaher's Leglocks
Danaher is an instructor's instructor. As usual this series is comprehensive, detailed and systematic-the way real BJJ should be taught. There is no scrimping on the length (as too many BJJ Fanatics products do) and you are truly receiving world class instruction with all the details.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Simply awesome
John just makes understanding the techniques easy to follow high level instructions from the best bbj coach MY leg lock game has improved so much definitely recommend
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻The site functionality and service
The site functionality and service are superb. It’s too early to tell if I can absorb Prof Danaher’s instruction but if I can’t it’s definitely going to be my fault.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤙🏻This is a phenomenal system,
This is a phenomenal system, I can’t emphasize how effective it is. I’ve had lots of success on fellow blue belts and higher belts as well, caught a brown belt with a cross heel hook, I couldn’t believe it! Thank you Professor!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Probably one of your best
Great instructional, it would be awesome to see more of your grip fighting systems

Will teach you everything you need to know to become a great leg locks specialist!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Leglocks sistem
I feel like flaying to America, pitch a tent next to his gym so i can attend his classes.
Response from BJJ FanaticshahahaTremendous value
Speaking as a martial artist for the last 25yrs, it has been absolutely mind-blowing to have had the opportunity to learn from Danaher. His teaching is so well structured, and explained in such clear detail, that you really feel like you have a much more complete understanding of the system upon completion of the instructional. Huge value here.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻I have been wanting to
I have been wanting to purchase this series since it came out but I needed to focus on other parts of my game first. Now that we all have extra time due to the COVID virus I’ve been able to dedicate more focus on learning leg attacks with Danaher’s system. I love it, it’s extremely detailed and the concepts are very understandable. There’s a lot of information to digest and practice when the time calls for it but I’m glad I made the purchase. Going over the techniques several times from different angles is a huge help where I can see all the little details of each move. Would absolutely recommend to someone if they wanted to learn leg attacks.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻It is a comprehensive instructional.
It is a comprehensive instructional. It might be more appealing to learners if it was arranged differently, eg might be better to start with ashi garami (which is about 2.5 hours in under current arrangement), and save the entries for last.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Absolutley amazing.
Absolutley amazing.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Best leg lock content on the planet
Very detailed and professional. The best leg-lock content on the planet. Danahers was of teaching is very meticulous. When he speaks he's so clear in what hes saying it like hes' reading from a book. Improvements: His first training partner didn't look like he knew what was going on though. Danaher could have been a little more exciting as an instructor but 99% of that is just his way of teaching and his personality. Great content!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Superb
The way Danaher structure’s his thinking makes it easier to absorb
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Leglocks
This is amazing, being a leglocks freak this is what I need right now lockdown and watching amazing videos, thank you for special price.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Amazing!
Everything John Danaher puts out is straight gold!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Amazing!
The instructions are very clear and now i understand the leglock game so much more!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Fundamentally changed my whole game
I watched the video series over and over again. Occasionally I'd train privately with one other partner. After roughly a year and a half of this its not uncommon for me to catch brown belts and other that generally operate at a much high level than me. Its a whole system that generally isn't very well understood by the JJ community. Transitioning back and forth from leg attacks to upper body attacks will also increase the success of your upper body attacks. Put in the work and you'll fly by your peers.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great fundamental concepts for us
Great fundamental concepts for us who are entering the leg lock arena.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Best instruction
Highest educational instruction levels and skills exhibited by Danaher makes this the next best thing to attending his classes.
