I enjoy closed guard a lot. Mica gave me some details that improved my game.. Closed guard ain't going anywhere.
The instructional video is excellent. As mentioned in some of the reviews, Mica shares excellent insights on grips, controls, and the transition between one position and another. It may seem like a “basic” instructional video, but it's highly recommended for learning or refining the closed guard. - One improvement: the audio is clear and functional... but it could be a little louder.
The details of breaking grip is good!able to break grip and proceed for many attacks in my closed guard now
Great instructional!
Very straightforward and simple no overly explained things. This instructional has made my closed guard dangerous. People should not feel your closed guard is a place to rest but a place to panic. This helps with that.
Great techniques from close guard.
Easy to follow, great instructional
As a heavy Closed Guard player, I thought I knew the game. This instructional blew my mind (5/5). It added a dangerous new layer to my strategy—sudden back takes and high-percentage subs I hadn't seen before. Essential for modernizing your bottom game.
This course exceeded my expectations. The instruction is clear, structured, and very practical. The techniques are broken down step by step, which makes learning and applying them much easier. The focus on details, positioning, and pressure really makes a difference in performance. I’ve seen noticeable improvements in my game since starting this course. Highly recommended for anyone serious about Jiu-Jitsu.

Some interesting variations and a great approach.
IMO the section on attacking with the overhook is exactly what I was looking for. Great details on how to deal with opponents on the top who grip both lapels strongly.
