The New Wave material is priceless
I love Danaher’s New Wave serious as it showcases a more modern approach to BJJ and submission grappling. I love No-Gi and this has improved my No-Gi passing game immensely.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Absolute gold
Absolute gold, changed my game!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻So much detail
This is great, so much content. First danaher instructional I have bought and I'm going to have to buy lots more! Awesome
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Boom
The concepts alone are worth watching this series. Whether your a 6 month white belt or OG black belt; you will glean wisdom and more efficient guard passing with out the gi. However most of the contents can be applied with a gi as well
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great instructional
I would recommend this if you're trying to get better at passing
Must Have
Great video! Gonna need a New Wave Guard Retention instructional to stop someone after they've watched this.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great video
I highly suggest this one. It up my game the minute I studied it!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Worth every penny
I’m only about 4 hours into 8 hours of this guard passing instructional. However, everything so far has been game changing for me. The clear and concise explanation along with the techniques being shown several times from different angles really helps. If you want to blow past your training partners guard buy this!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Knowledge
Knowledge
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻What can be said that
What can be said that has not been said about Prof. Danaher? Amazing series. Top notch explanations. Explaining that big picture/ philosophy of everything and small details as well is the strength of this series. Only bad part is that I am so addicted to John Danaher videos so beware!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great Video
John Danaher give clear details that help me improve my guard passing.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻PASS PEOPLE LIKE GRADMA ON THE FREEWAY
TEACHES YOU HOW TO PASS AND GET AROUND FASTER THAN YOU CAN A SLOW DRIVER ON A ONE LANE HWY WITH A WIDE SHOULDER WHEN NO ONES LOOKING!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Fantastic Guard Passing Insights
This is my favorite guard passing instructional thus far. Danaher does a great job of providing a conceptual understanding of guard passing followed by specific approaches to attaining key winning positions. An excellent overview of guard passing that addresses several guard passing methods in great detail. Highly recommended!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great for white belts
John starts with the basic philosophy, building up with the most useful techniques. White belts such as me not only get to understand how the moves are performed, but also why the moves are effective. Great for building the foundation of guard passing!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Another great JD

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻New guard passing
Along with everything Danaher releases. Top quality. Changed my.opinion on playing top position.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Really thorough and precise instruction
Really thorough and precise instruction that helped me fine tune areas of my game. Particularly useful to diagnose why things were not working previously and to work through those and fix them. Very comprehensive in its coverage of many guard passing scenarios to where it is clear in the videos that the teacher has trouble shooted this methods against the best to sharpen and improve them.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻great approuch for nogi passing!
great approuch for nogi passing! I was suprising how much master John details covers in this inctructionals. Specialy entries in bodylock! I fix my passing game dramaticly. Highly recomend !!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Best content there is. These
Best content there is. These videos are an investment and are well worth the price. In my opinion there’s no reason to buy a dvd from anyone other than John or his team.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Nothing like obtaining Danaher knowledge
Danaher courses has made me so confident on the mat and I actually feel bad for my fellow training partners. Most people just lake the knowledge to be better and Danaher course impart priceless knowledge that others will take notice when they train with you.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great

Always great knowledge no matter how big or small the details are osss.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Very helpful with passing guard.
Very helpful with passing guard. Danaher along with Gordon’s videos on the same subject go very well with each other.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great details!
This instructional has really helped me pick up on the necessary details of guard passing. John really gets nitty gritty with details and it really helped me avoid common mistakes.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Worth it
Danaher's insights into BJJ are next level, he provides excellent and simple explanations for the "whys" of guard passing. This video series was definitely a great investment.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Top Notch information
Anything by Danaher is great! He explains things perfectly and makes you think.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Amazing
Amazing instructional. Was able to improve my jiu-jitsu right away.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Worth it for the body lock passes alone
This is exceptional. I wasn't sure as the passing in gi was pretty comprehensive, but there are plenty of elements in here not touched on in the gi passing. I have melded pretty well with the body lock passing and I believe it is worth it for that alone. However open guard passing is a subject I will delve deeper into and hopefully master thanks to this material.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Helpful
Great way to improve your passing game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great Guard Passing Instructional
This is a great instructional that not only covers the fundamentals of guard passing, but shows techniques that will give you the ability to pass the guard of people at the highest level. All of his work is top quality and this one does not disappoint!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Your game will always change
Your game will always change after watching a danaher video
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Must have
Between fanatics wrestling and fanatics bjj I have more than 30+ instructionals so far. Hours and hours of great content and valuable information and even though I have yet to see them all, there are few that stand out like a beacon of light in the midst of the night. One of these is the new wave jiujitsu guard passing instructional. John breaks down everything like he usually does so the student - you and me buddy <3 - can get the most bang for our buck and even though the price tag is quite hefty, remember the information John delivers has not just taken half a lifetime to archive but more importantly gone through his Aspergers filter. If there is something important you need to know john is there making sure you know about it. Recommended for everyone at all levels.
Brilliant guard passing system
Brilliant instructional full of gold. John is the best peroid
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻AWESOME!!
Top instructional Nothing else to say
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Effective and efficient techniques that work (even as a white belt)
Jiu-jitsu has a history of being effective but Danaher's techniques increase its effectiveness while making them simple and straightforward (which is indicative of a high level of knowledge in both technique and principle). I'm a four-stripe white belt that's been training for 8 months (mostly 4-5 times per week) and I have been able to use these techniques to pass the closed guard of blue belts that are half my age (I'm 51) by simply using the techniques in this instructional video. Plus, John shows you a great way to handle possible sweeps after you stand and they are also effective, which allows you to feel comfortable in attempting the guard pass since you know you can quickly recover from a sweep and still achieve the guard pass. New Wave Jiu-jitsu is the beginning of the next phase of jiu-jitsu for the 21st century that will serve to make jiu-jitsu an even better system. A big thanks to John Danaher for his innovative and effective approach!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Recommend
Excellent as always. John offers the best teaching for those who wish to learn at a deeper level. If you’re the type of person who doesn’t have patience to listen to someone repeat the same thing over and over, don’t buy. However, if you know and understand the power of repetition, then you’ll find this video to be a gamechanger.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great instructional
