Mount System
Excellent strategies for climbing the hierarchy of controlling positions in the mount system and focuses on four main submissions.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Game Changing
No Gi mount made great again by the wizard himself, John Danaher.
Pure gold
Pure gold! John will level up your game. He has a great teaching style and deep knowledge.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Transformative
For anyone who feels much more comfortable in side control, where they can control a round, but don’t necessarily have high percentage dangerous attacks, this video is a must. It will make you way more comfortable transition to mount, keeping mount, and having attacks that are way more threatening than side control attacks. If you are only going to get a few of JD’s content, this set should be high priority.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Another Great Danaher Instructional
I own several Danaher instructionals and this is as high quality as all the others. Danaher systematically explains the mount position and corresponding high percentage submissions. A must watch to improve your mount.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻High Level Instruction
Danaher always puts out the heat. The mount system is no different. Glad I picked this one up!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Brilliant, essential, magical, boring
This is magic - everything just works. Even though it’s so boring watching Danaher demonstrate the same techniques over and over and say the same thing over and over, as soon as I take it to the mats it works, with zero practice. I still have to refine it, and rewatch to get details I missed, and rewatch again, but it works. I neglected my mount game for a few years while I focused on guard, side control and passing, so to watch a few hours and then immediately start holding pins indefinitely while isolating limbs and getting submissions is just nuts. It’s not me, it’s him. Good god. Buy this.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Excellent Instructional
I’ve always had trouble holding and maintaining mount but this instructional leveled up my mount game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Excellent Instruction
A detailed system!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Absolutely Wonderful System
This is a really straightforward and powerful approach to submitting from mount. A lot of people have trouble converting to submissions from dominant positions so I'd really recommend this. Also, I'd pair this with his back attack series and side control series. When you can not only attack from mount but also change the position and renew the attack from a new angle your effectiveness will go way up.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Put the arm over their head
Very helpful and easy to implement

John Danaher is the best! Always enjoy his instructionals!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Mount superiority gang
I finally understand why mount is a dominant position. This dvd has me convinced it is THE dominant position in all of bjj
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻More content than you might expect
This was an extremely useful tutorial with powerful techniques indeed. It helped me, because it takes the guesswork out of boss sidemount and mount. Extremely helpful. Also goes through finishes from the back. I highly recommend this as an overview of what can be done, before delving deeper when actually buying the back series or the arm triangle series.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great stuff. Its one of
Great stuff. Its one of those videos thats hard to digest at once, but has information in it that brings you back again and again.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Excellent
Excellent instruction from one of the best coaches in the game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Brilliant
This instructional is awesome!! A select few attacks shown, but the detail and emphasis on control in this instructional is incredible. Poor Placido in this instructional though. Although he does get revenge ;)
Best mount advice anywhere
JD is a genius to be sure. My number one problem is holding mount long enough to even consider submitting my opponent. John explains things clearly and points out overlooked details that are essential to hold the mount.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🔥Great as always
Changed my nogi mount approach, far more effective
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great video
Very help video. I used to hate mount but now the only people who hate it are the people I’m rolling with! Thanks for the great product!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻My most enjoyable Danaher Instructional... glad I got this system before starting the "Enter the system" videos
My most enjoyable Danaher Instructional... Fun, Nice to drill. Glad I got this system before starting the "Enter the system" videos
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻The best mount instructional
After watching this instructional, John's mount system. My mount improved a lot and became far more controlled, dominant and dangerous. I was able to put pressure and submit people much easier than before.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Outstanding instructional
My ability to get to mount and keep mount has greatly improved from this instructional.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Amazing !!!
Amazing !!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Pretty good
Valid gonna prob pair this with open guard sweeps once that comes on .
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻New wave
Nice info from Danaher as usual. Very philosophical.
Awesome!
Lots of great details to help with mount control and submissions.
Legit
Changed my game. Excellent. 10/10
Excellent system
Our instructor has taught Mount based on this system and I decided to pick it up myself to study some details on my own. The system is relatively easy to implement and I have already found my own favorite "sequences" of control grips to submissions.
Great Mount Instructional
Danaher goes through the techniques, and strategies on how to retain and finish from the mount.
Gold dust
If you can get past Danaher’s style then you have a great mount instructional that is different from everything else out there. This isn’t so much an encyclopaedia of techniques but rather a thesis on how to maximise your mount game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻New Wave Mount System
John is an amazing teacher and this instructional is a must watch! He goes in depth on his way of teaching mount and gives a new perspective on what goals you want to achieve from that position. A must see!
Great instructional video. The in-depth
Great instructional video. The in-depth breakdowns of the concepts behind the movements and the small details that are a major part of success for each of the moves are great.

Nothing short of the expectations! The fantastic John with even more fantastic instructions!
Simple and effective
Easily implementable techniques
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great instructional
Great instructional
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Arm triangles for days
Really helped my top pressure from mount
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Changed My Top Game
For a while in regards to sport BJJ (no strikes), I have always favored side mount over traditional mount for the amount of stability it offered. However, John changed my mind with this video. I have immediately implemented this and have seen results just on control alone (never mind the 4x4 dilemma it offers). Crucifix (or stepping over the head) from side control offers a similar dilemma but not as impactful. You can really fatigue and slow down the game of your opponent which makes the subs much easier to come by as opposed to forcing it and fatiguing yourself in the process. He gave examples of Gordan and Roger, but Rickson and Mica Galvaeo have also shown what a good top game looks like (there're many others as well I am just naming a few). Great instructional

Really important after you learned how to defend yourself!
Detailed Mount instructional with clear structure
Very detailed and complete Mount Instructional. Like always Danaher emphasizes concepts and heuristics as well as techniques.
Masterpiece

John Danaher never misses this
John Danaher never misses this really up'd my game and helped me coming up with plan on how to overcome certain situations
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻awesome course
awesome course worth every dollar
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻So much depth of knowledge!
Although this video is way above my current level, the teaching approach that Mr. Danaher brings to the material covered means that I will be coming back to rewatch the video over and over again to gain more insight into the strategies as I slowly come to better understand the concepts that he is presenting in this video series.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Excellent
Danaher always brings so much info to his instructional and the quality of his coaching is world class
