As always I learn some key details with John that i wish I would have learned earlier in my bjj career
Great, insightful instruction
Excellent video with great detail and pace.
Amazing video very straightforward
Great video for not only escapes but for controlling these positions as well
I feel my game has improved ! It is very efficient.
Well thought and structured! Loved all the concepts and the way they were explained.
Great fundamental principals on these videos that I often review.
Great video. The way Danaher fuses detailed technique advice with an emphasis on principles and fundamental ideas is second to none.
Great details to review a couple times while practicing
The moves are explained in great detail. The video camera is always in the proper view of what is being taught. The concepts are brilliant and explained in a way that’s easy for a white belt to understand.
Fantastic Instructional! Johns ability to break down concepts and techniques for everybody to understand is amazing. This instructional is well worth it.
Great video. Detailed instructions to help you understand the concepts of escapes and submissions directly from the escape. Can’t go wrong with instruction from Danaher.
I was extremely pleased with the theory and coherent explanation on each escape. Being an older grappler I was worried it would be something out of my wheelhouse but I was pleasantly surprised. Instead of escaping to a neutral position you go into attack mode. Mind blowing right? Sometimes genius is merely stating the obvious and not doing it the old way just because we’ve always done it this way.
Great instructional video!
So far this is the best instructional video that I purchased. The concept of attacking after escaping a bad position really opened my mind for more possibilities. I really believe this is a must buy for everyone to be more proficient in leglocking game.
Reverse shrimping vs hip connection was a game changer.
Mastering these pin escapes taught in this instructional is a must. With the ability to escape from anywhere you can now constantly be on the counter attack, something which this instructional teaches well
After studying and practicing the techniques in this instructional for the past couple of months I am already close to unpinnbale against most of my peers and even against some who are double my weight. The kipping escapes alone are so fun to pull off and have made bottom mount almost desirable to be put in.
Beat instructional I've bought
This by far is the one that i would 100% recommend. i have all the new wave series that’s been released thus far and this is my go to. as a new white belt i find myself in many of the situations mr danaher discusses and i now am able to get out of them ! i highly recommend this one.
I have made much progress on the mats and became much more aggresive with my game after watching this series. Prof. Danaher is presenting a new mindset for the sport. Money well-spent. Thanks Prof. Danaher!
Anything by John Danaher is :100:
Best positional escape instructional you can buy. Game changer
Great video. The attention to detail and philosophical approach are effective at delivering a terrific instructional.
