As a gi-player, I needed to understand passing without grips. This was very good, especially if you're used to the danaher systems.
Another great instructional from John Danaher. All the details you need for efficient guard passing in no gi
Beyond the techniques, John provides a sense of direction from open guard. This instructional would be helpful for anyone unsure of how to make and maintain connections from the bottom position
Excellent overview of key passing positions for no gi. Been able to quickly put these concepts into practice to give me far more options for passing.
very detailed
He's the best for a reason! This instructional is no different!

John is a mastermind. He gives every detail posible
A must have for any no gi enthusiasts. Johns details are fantastic and I’d recommend this to anyone who wants to up their passing game
Negation first , so much knowledge about breaking grips and putting grips back on.
Brilliant teaching about how the guard players control is between the knees. So much details that I didn't know
Fantastic details.
excellent overview of guard passing from opening the guard hand fighting through open guard passing to body locks. excellent!
Awesome
Exceptional content like all other Prof Danaher videos
Usually I used to stall or just go for a armbar from side control. Since Learning this part 'be ready to take the back at all times' I am getting more back takes in sparring from side control. Thank you John Danaher 🙏
Great stuff. Immediately helpful out the gate.
This is a great, comprehensive approach to guard passing. it teaches everything you need to know about it.
And also thanks bjjfanatics
I've been training for 10+ years and Professor Danaher never ceases to amaze me with the finer details that determine a successful step vs a disaster. This has been the most eye opening course I have watched on BJJ Fanatics and will continue to use these methods on the mat. Fantastic course!
Essential
I found this easier to follow than Gordon Ryan's guard passing instructional.
Thorough explanation of the challenges and objectives of guard passing, followed by particular guard passes. Found this easier to follow than Gordon Ryan's guard passing instructional.
