Jones is among the best teachers, and his sense of humor makes all of his instructionals more fun than the rest.
In depth guide to Z guard
This instructional is really helpful because it has a great focus on retention from z guard. The attacks are great but honestly this helped me most understand how to better pass a low knee shield when on top, and also how to prevent those passes while on bottom. This isn't the be all end all position, and Craig is honest about that, but I mean it's a low knee shield half guard, quite easy to get to, great retention tool, and springboards off into further attacks into the legs or other scrambles. Great stuff.
Excelent content.
A really good course.

Craig Jones is entertaining as always, while delivering another fantastic instructional. He breaks down how each pass works as well as each defense, giving an excellent understanding of some very dynamic situations.

Z Guard
There is a ton of good information in this instructional. Right away my ability to maintain a knee shield and Z guard improved and I have a game plan from the position now. There are a ton of submission options shown that I'm sure I will be revisiting again and again.

Z Guard for the Win
not a guard that many people play so it was interesting to learn it and utilise it against my training partners. Dynamic entries to upper and lower body attacks as well as sweeps, off balancing & guard retention.
make the z guard great again

Simple combinations with great instruction and details. The humour is appreciated too.

probably the best z guard instructional i've seen craig is very knowledgeable in this position. iv'e bought his other z guard video and while useful it isn't as in depth as this instructional. great for players who have a half guard game who wamt to level up

great dvd
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Z-Guard is a lot stronger
Really helped my z-guard game. I had trouble retaining and setting up subs but a lot of the details and drills craig recommends helped me a lot. Feel more in control rather than just getting my knee shield passed.

Amazing
Brilliant from B Team
Response from BJJ Fanatics🔥Bjj Fanatics wont stop bothering me for a review
Im only doing this because these notifications will not stop. Its like paying for something but still having ads blasted at you. Instructional is cool though
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Easy Guard Retention (And More)
TIL I could learn a bunch of different guards and hope that my guard won't get passed... or I could just throw up knee shield and play from there. I choose the latter, thanks Craig Jones.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Z guard - Great for all levels
Great details with balance of broad concepts and specific movements. Z guard/knee shield is something everyone plays at some point even if it starts from a defensive reaction for guard retention - something Craig raises here. This means you need to be competent at knee shield and this is a fantastic approach to the position
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Z Guard
Craig makes the z guard very easy to understand and implement.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗great z guard review
great z guard review
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Knee Shield and more!!
C. J. shows how to use the knee shield to play out of half guard or to use the kneeshield directly as a transitional kick off. There are also a lot of transitions to ashi garami and finishes too. Highly recommend!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Favorite one
The knee shield is my favorite guard, so I had to buy this instructional. Craig as always is doing the top job and shows plenty of techniques with useful details.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗very fun and instructional
Inreally did have a pleasure watching this instruction Al by Craig Jones. It s very far from being boring as many others instructionals and its really helping improving my knee Shield pass and attacks/rétention. Craig Jones IS a very fun and very good teacher.

Craig does it again.
If you are a Z-guard player, this is a must-have. Craig’s teaching is good, but the introduction of the course is the best. You can improve your Z guard and have fun simultaneously. Good deal.
very unique
unique techniques

Craig Jones!
2nd best Z-Guard instructional available. Lots of cool details on the Choi Bar and Kimura.
Incredible
If you want to make your guard more dangerous, this is the product for you. You will learn how to chain together submissions and sweeps, making sure that your opponents can never rest in your guard
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Concise Instruction
The best no gi z-guard player in the game shows us how to make our game better.
Must have for every guard player
Craig’s understanding of this game is insane.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Amazing
One of my favourite instructionals. There's so much more here than just the knee shield. Craig is an amazing teacher.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Very Useful
Great presentation and solid information. A less boring version of a Danaher/Gordons instructionals but with all the valuable info you need
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Good stuff
