Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻New Wave Jiu Jitsu: No-Gi Guard Passing
Great video series by an exceptional instructor. I strongly recommend all of the "New Wave" materials as they have made a real difference for me at the MMA gym.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great instructional
Extremely useful instructional for me and I very much like Danaher's teaching style.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻It’s John Danaher, need I say more
What’s there to say? It’s Danaher, so a must have. A great systematic approach to no-gi passing full of details that will make a huge difference for your game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻More of the best instruction from the best instructor
Everything John Danaher puts out is gold. I have most of his instructionals and each one has changed my understanding, and my way of processing jiu-jitsu, for the better. Even the techniques I knew before watching his videos have improved because, after learning more about the positions or situations I find myself in, i can clearly diagnose the situation. I can now spot flaws without someone pointing them out and i am able to logically find the corrections necessary to make the technique more sound. His passing instructionals are more of the spectacular same. You can watch this over a weekend, or you can slowly digest it and let it soak into your game. Either way, it will change your grappling for the better.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻sophisticated
His teaching is very detail and sophisticated!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Exceptional passing instructional!
John Danaher delivers again. Exceptional high quality product.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great conceptual passing series
A great passing series that's taught based on concepts rather than individual techniques. Allows you to adapt the instruction to your game and body type. Danaher is a great teacher
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Fantastic cutting edge instructional
No need to look beyond what Danaher teaches. If you want to be the best you.. learn from the best
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Top notch no-gi instructional
Another excellent series from John Danaher. I was able to quickly implement passes from this system into my game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻great web site, App.
great deals that have are missed in classes. after just watching 1-3 videos i have been able to pass upper belts, moving to side control or mount which generally i struggle with in the passed.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great breakdown
Excellent content, broken down very well.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great Insctructionnal
Very good video from John Danaher
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Glad I didn't pass this one
Gives a solid framework for nogi passing, and just like Danaher's other instructionals, in an easily digestible manner (for me at least). Shows a bunch of important details and explains well the mechanics behind the techniques and opponents logical reactions. I'm sure this will broaden my tools and confidence when it comes to guard passing. I also appreciate the efforts in production, teamwork between John and Placido, and overall audio. In the earlier series, at least one of those aspects seemed to be somewhat lacking and at times distracting, even if the content itself was excellent. With this one, I don't think I noticed any scuff and the viewing/learning experience has been pleasant.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻"Another cheat code unlocked"
Another essential piece of the system that cannot be ignored. Wow just when I thought I was good to go with his fundamental guard passing video he proved me wrong again. This instructional video really fills the gaps to your passing game and even broadens your gi passing arsenal.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great
This instructional is great. The concepts and principles, basics and fundamentals of no gi passing are priceless. I can already see the improvements in my guard passing game.
Fantastic Instructional
Great instructional and very detailed. I can't recommend this enough!
Full of lots of little
Full of lots of little details that make the difference between a pass that works and one that doesn't. And gives an effective overall system for passing

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Breaks Down The Key Battles To Focus On
This has been awesome for a new white belt to figure out what battles to focus on. Danaher identifies the key battles being fought in different positions so you can focus on the battles worth winning instead of vaguely worrying about an infinite number of threats.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Another excellent instructional
A great series on nogi guard passing. The concepts presented are invaluable. Would recommend.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Danaher New Wave
I love his style of teaching. He breaks entire sequences down, making the position easily understandable and thus your decision making is made easier. I'm only a section into this instructional and it's well worth the money. He teaching style allows for a different look at jiu jitsu.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻No Gi Guard Passing
Another great John Danaher instructional always gives a solid understanding of what you are trying to achieve and why
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Mr. Danaher did it again!
Passing the legs in no gi is easy enough, but I always struggled with maintaining control that leads to pins. I really like the leg pummeling system that's implemented here.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Amazing
Crisp Detail. Extremely informative. I’ve used much of what I’ve learned with this info from Danaher. Absolutely amazing!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Brilliant and Logical Guard Passing system
Learning from Professor John is an amazing experience that has shifted my guard passing skills to a whole new level.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Solid Instructional
Highly Recommend! You will not regret getting this one!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Master class on No Gi Passing
I saw immediate improvements in my no gi passing after watching this dvd. The toreando section is ESPECIALLY GOOD.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻The best!
Excellent instructional on passing guard.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Guard passing
This is a very informative detailed take on guard passing. It has an overview of everything but it is only the information that is needed. I cannot think of someone better to learn guard passing from. It has changed my game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Amazing guard passing instructional! A
Amazing guard passing instructional! A variety of different passing method to combine and become a well rounded guard passer. Each section provides Very detailed and easy to understand techniques and concepts. Danaher is able to simplify the most advanced concepts and give you easy to use understand techniques to further improve your passing game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻No Gi passing covered
Danaher is a bit long winded but covers all the details you need to pass the gaurd. The section on Passing around the outside was especially useful for me as I almost always knee cut, body lock or smash pass.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻First time buying a Danaher instructional, and his reputation for teaching BJJ is well-deserved
At the time that I'm writing this review, I've been training no-gi for about a year and a half. Before buying this instructional, I had watched plenty of clips from his other videos on YouTube. However, I was hesitant to purchase one of his instructionals because the amount of information in them looked intimidating, and I was a little concerned his teaching style would be a bit too dry and academic for my taste. This particular video caught my eye because I had become frustrated trying to combine various guard passes I saw on YouTube with my favorites from the ones I learned in class. I wanted more of a systematic approach and framework I could follow. I was pleasantly surprised to find that John's teaching style is more dynamic and engaging than I had expected. It's fun to see the bond he's developed with Placido, and their interactions definitely provide some comedic relief. Even though John is extremely thorough with the amount of detail he provides, I don't feel like any of it is unnecessary. Every section feels like a complete class with all of the subsections organized in a logical progression. There are also several principles which he consistently repeats throughout the entire instructional. As a white belt, the Opening A Closed Guard section has been tremendously helpful for me. I'm also slowly but surely working on bodylock passes. I have no doubt this is a resource I will keep coming back to again and again.
Response from BJJ FanaticsThanks a lot for your review! 🤗Fundamentals with a different look.
Fundamentals with a different look. Great stuff.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Exactly what I wanted and more
Useful adjustments learned to sense and maintain control with no gi.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Changed my view on guard passing
John really does a great general overview on no-gi gaurd passing; the torreando and bodylock sections specifically have helped me improve my game in a short period of time!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻
