i've been rolling for a year now and this has been huge for me in understanding mount, as well as having the benefit of using reliable subs from mount. simplicity gets the job done.
I think John’s lessons are for learning concepts and systems over a long term commitment. I think sole instructions are for quick fixes or introductions but John’s (among others) are more to “sit and study” to really marinate in the techniques
Game changer like all other Danaher videos!
Great Vid. But, you probably knew that. John does a great job teaching the concepts, tactics, and techniques to improve your No-Gi Mount game. There is something in 4x4 System for everyone.
I just want to say thank you for sharing your knowledge.
The absolute fundamentals in this instructional took my mount to the next level. If you currently struggle with holding the position or just don't know how to stabilize somebody, this system really gets you to fall in love with the mount. The details on control and pressure make all the difference. Highly recommend it to anyone looking to turn their top game into a true weapon.
An excellent overview of a mount system that can be immediately implemented.
Has improved my mount game significantly
Best instructional out there on the mount position. The chest wrap is devastating and has become a fundamental part of my game, strangely enough not many people seem to have caught onto this strategy. Highly recommend!
This is a very thorough look at the mount position!

gaining the underhook for the head and arm technique.
I love all of the instructionals from John. This one changed my game from mount. It gives a clear system on how to attack a well defending opponent. The concepts are easy to remember even during live rolling and some of the simple details like lifting the head have been really effective. I used to prefer side control because of its stability, but after watching this dvd I find myself looking to attack from mount way more often.

genial este tutorial
Great instructional, covers how to mount, retain mount, and finish with high percentage subs.
Learning how all the different types of mounts can and should be used is going to make my mount so much easier and stronger. Can't wait to use it in my next class.
I now get more kata gatames easily and mindset change
I've enjoyed learning the history of mount position and the reason why it is used well by the very best at the sport.
