• If you're new to K-Guard start here.

  This instructional is the backbone of K-Guard, all other instructional should be treated as supplemental to this.

• Can't go wrong with Lachlan Giles

  Lachlan Giles is widely recognised as one of the best instructors and is dedicated to making excellent content. He's also extremely proficient at K-guard in his own game so it makes for a brilliant instructional. Deep and detailed content but broken down into very small and easily understandable chunks.

• Great for white belts

  I have bad guard play and this will definitely upgrade it. I'm only at the first chapter but the way Lachlan explains is clear and he explains it step by step how we are gonna progress towards something. Entry guard to the secondary guard and to the finish part. It's perfect and a real system. Thank you so much. I finally have a very understandable coach when it comes to guard play.

  Karol K.December 29, 2025PolandVerified buyerBlue belt4-6 yrs training

• This completely changed my game.

  Lachlan is genuinely my new favourite instructor. I previously enjoyed his retention videos and his half guard videos carried me out of white belt and into blue. The way that Lachlan teaches sis very easy to get and after showing it to my black belt friends, they say he definitely caters more towards the black belts so I'm excited to just keep getting more and more out of this instructional as I gain more knowledge. I plan on getting the rest of this series. This is the first instructional that, after trying it out for a few weeks, gas really felt that it has given me an entire "game" and also a direction to continue to learn on the future. The fact that Lachlan gives you the strategy and not just the technique - without all the waffle but still with charisma - is really rare and impressive.

• Complete your half guard

  This is a must have if you are a half guard payer. That is all I use in my old age to slow down younger practitioners, and adding k guard to my tool bag helps.
