Excellent as always
awesome!
very good video to improve your approach to passing guard. I love to learn with concepts and principles and danaher always explains everything without leaving any gaps in his instruction.
I was really struggling with passing guard. This helped enable me to be able to stop being stuck in my training partners guards. I would watch part of the instructional, go to the gym to try it out, and then repeat that process and continually build up my passing game.
awesome

loved the details!

Another masterclass from Danaher
This no-gi guard passing instructional is simply amazing. John Danaher covers pretty much all the different types of guard passing from loose toreandos and leg drags to tight body locks and side body locks. He goes into incredible detail and simplifies the objective of guard passing so that even if you have not learnt all the moves, in rolls and sparring, you are able to have some sense of direction to help guide your movements.
I feel like I wa deeper understanding of passing the guard after this course. Fellow training partners always compliment me on my guard passing which is due to Danaher's course.
Great details
very thorough and highly effective methods
Danaher teaching his jiu jitsu as system has helped me so much, it helps me structure my thinking and make quicker links, making my game so much better
I like how Danaher uses just a few "technique blocks" to answer the majority of issues one has when fighting opponent's guard. Torreandos, floating passing, body locks and half guard passes to get the job down. Makes things much clearer and easier.
I always come back to this one. guard passing that stands the rest of time.
I love the whole New Wave Series. It's fantastic. So much, details, concepts and strategies. The Bible of NoGi Guard Passing.
Watching the video has changed and improved my guard passing so much. Thank you Sensei John D:man-bowing:
Very nicely detailed for folks starting to advance their skillset. Even for highly advanced folks the minor details mentioned are often not understood.
I appreciate the company and all the talented coaches for the teaching. It has accelerated my learning and growth in jujutsu for sure. I'm fortunate to have an amazing home gym where I can learn from world class expert level coaching. Being able to use the information from fanatics in a great room with my partners and coaches has been phenomenal. I'm 42, training for 8 years and received my black belt over a year ago. Thanks for accellerating my ability to learn.
All you need to know about guard passing

the beginning was hard to get through because of the complex gripping, took a long time for John to explain this. but once he gets into the meat n potatoes of the techniques it's really amazing passing sequences, I'm 13 years in the sport and adding Johns concepts and strategies to my own passing game is bringing it to the next level.
the best
Pedro Sauer is a very good instructor, very detailed. Not only variations rather a Concept behind. For me the Best Mount instructional! we recommend. Also a very Good Price. thanks to Pedro and Bjj Fanatics!!
The best guard passing instructional of all time
well structured and easy to follow and implement right away!
A detailed no-gi guard passing system consisting of opening closed guard, toreando, leg pommeling, body lock, and half guard passing. With these, it feels like I can pass basically all no-gi guards and a good number of gi guards as well. John Danaher gives fantastic tips about the passes and shows how to transition between them.
Legit :100:
I love the body lock instruction. Really improved my game. Thanks Johnny D
I'm never disappointed with John's videos! I've significantly improved my guard passing game thanks to this.
Because most of my training time has been in the GI this has helped my no-gi passing a ton.
I cannot wait to start connecting this video course with upper body takedowns and ageless top game
The DDS squad has the best instructionals.
