Effortless technical guillotine
I want to learn a guillotine which does not require great upper body strength so I chose to learn this one. There are lots of details, and many different angles throughout the instructional. However the instructional is somewhat weirdly planned, where first many offesive adn defnsive setups are shown, and only then the details of the mechanics are discusses.
Response from BJJ FanaticsThanks for the review!Concepts over techniques
Great instructional, principles oriented
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Conceptual and Technical Masterpiece!
Prefessor K. P. teaches you concepts, principles AND techniques eith his philosophy. Im this way he unites the pillars of jiu jitsu. He provides propper finishing mechanics, set ups and countets to countets. He demonstrates guard passing, sweeping, defending and transitioning takedowns into positional dominance into submitting. All with just the guillotine. His teaching is straight to the content of each chaptet and highlighting all fundamental and crucial details. Incorporating the shoulder way more supported my successrate the most beside his signature gripping! Highly recommend!!
Awesome!
Great explanations of the finer details, highly recommended!

An incredible instructor
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Karl Pravec Mastering Guillotine-
The best guillotine instructional on this type of guillotine. Karel is really a master and he holds nothing back. The great thing about this guillotine is it is accessible gi or no gi. Lot of guillotines are hard to pull off with the gi. Not this one.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:quick tap guillotine
excellent variation of the guillotone - quick nasty finish
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Outstanding tutorial
I appreciate how Mr. Pravec explains the fundamentals of the guillotine technique, and then reiterates them in each situation. This reinforces the lessons already taught, while demonstrating them in different aspects.

The Guillotine have always been an elusive submission for me. The Silver Fox cut a clear pathway on getting it done. Thank you.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Couldn't Resist, Not Disappointed
When the Silver Fox is on daily deal I am always ready to make a game time decision. Always find new gems to takeaway. Even if you watch the youtube, something new always comes through on the instructionals
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great instructional
I have been practicing bjj for a year now focusing on fundamentals as much as I can. My guillotine game was non existent before I studied this instructional. Mr Karel is amazing and this instructional is enough to put techniques into practice effectively and systematically.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Brilliant
Another great product by Karel. A unique take on the guillotine which is covered thoroughly from a number of defensive and offensive positions. I rate this product highly!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Unique details
Came from watching his YouTube channel (which is great) to his instructionals which are fantastic. He always seems to have the one or 2 killer details that no one else talks about
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:J.C. White Belt
The Silver Fox deserves a Gold Medal! Very complete with a reason behind the implementation of the technique. You get some Philosophical Wisdom in the video which is worth more than the technique.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Foxotine
Karel’s “Foxotine” Grip, and I want credit for that name, completely changed my guillotines for the better. I hit them at a much higher percentage now. I highly recommend this instructional.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:From The Guillotine Master Himself
Great systematic guillotine approach
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Good details, poor execution
While this instructional has good details, the information is presented in a way that makes it very hard to follow. While it is still a good instructional with solid details, the information could be presented in a more organized, structured manner too make it easier to digest.
Deadliest guillotine and much more
Silver Fox is one of the best instructors there is.. His elegant style and detailed explanations gives you great tools added to your Bjj game. Moreover, as part of his holistic view of Bjj, his follow ups are pure gold. Every Bjj practitioner can take benefit from watching and learning his instructionals. Aside from the above, he is one of the nicest guys in the scene, always have time for questions, and his enthusiasm for Bjj catches you. Buy this and you won't regret for a second.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great system
Great work
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Highly recommended
I am friends with Professor Karel on Facebook and I have known him since his Fluid BJJ video. This instructional is very informative and to the point regarding guillotine chokes, I recommend it for all belt levels I particularly like his emphasis on BJJ being an art of 5 limbs 😎:muscle:
