The attacking system is complete; we can transition from one position to another depending on what our opponent does, in order to maintain a constant threat.
Excellent product, very good practical advice.

It seems like Danaher knows a thing about bjj. Highly recommend any of his videos, great detailed instructions for high percentage techniques. No fluff

I´m bad in close Guard. But after that, I´m not that bad at all!
Very good comprehensive instructional showing good fundamental concepts and how to implement them. Enjoyed sit out series and attacking the legs inparticular
Incredible instructional!

Professor Danaher gives you a full closed guard system that works if you take the time to learn it. I like how there is a logical sequence to every Danaher video and this one is the best one I have seen so far.
One more greatly detailed instructional with key foundations to a better closed guard game.
Great instructional. Very well structured and detailed. Also does a good job acknowledging several "traditional" techniques and explaining why his modifications correct for some of the issues that tend to occur when attempting them.
This is a really amazing video!
