No Gi Takedowns Made Easy
Great takedowns to improve your grappling ability from standing. Great demonstration of techniques by Rick Hawn. Very impressive
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻No gi takedowns made easy
Very detailed and easy to understand. Each technique is broken down thoroughly. Highly recommended
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻You have to drill them
A lot of useful content, but of course you have to drill these takedowns. Nobody will give you these positions as easy as it shown in the dvd ;)
Simple, Effective Grappling. Nothing More And Nothing Less
Mr. Hawn teaches some fine fundemental grappling skills. There are no frills, nor are there gimicks. Just hard work and solid technique.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Best takedown course if you are not an avid fan of wrestling
Rick Hawn is second to none when it comes to judo takedowns translated to no gi jits. No extreme athleticism or explosiveness is needed if you follow the precise instructructions of Rick.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Simple!
Clear and simple explanations throughout.

Great explanations and easy to follow
Great way into no gi upperbody takedowns
Hawn goes into a nice amount of detail on each takedown, this will make for a great addition to traditional wrestling style takedowns
Great judo takedowns for NoGi
Small but straightforward instructional. Goes over the basic setups and executions for judo throws adapted to NoGi. I wouldn't recommend this to someone who is just starting with BJJ and has no judo background, but if you're looking to adapt your judo game to NoGi, or if you're a more experienced athlete looking to diversify your takedown options, this is the best instructional you will find on the topic.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻GreaT Takedown's
I really like it and is true that He made takedowns EZ ;)
Amazing video!
Amazing video, really helped my takedowns! Thank you so much for this!
easy to follow judo takedowns
simple to follow instructional that is instantly applicable in training. never trained judo and rick explains in a clear and concise manner
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great takedown instructional
Fun judo takedowns for no gi.
Mr
Helped me massively
Worked immediately
Techniques are easily spelled out, with the key factors clearly emphasized. On my first class after viewing this instructional, I was able to successfully complete throws against opponents of various backgrounds that I previously had difficulty with. Quality of the production was alright, nothing to really write home about, but as an overview of simple no-gi standup options, it’s solid.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great technique!
Rick Hawn does a great job in breaking down and explaining movements as well as why you're doing what you're doing. Good tools to have for tournaments, fights and self defense. Appreciate the series :100:
I really enjoyed this video.
I really enjoyed this video. It is nice to see no-gi Judo. Detailed instruction. Easy to follow along with. I am already having success with a couple of the takedowns. Good buy!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Very Good and easy explained
Very Good and easy explained by Rick Hawn. Best Price, Exercises are useful for Bjj , Mma ,Judo and also Self Defence.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Love the detail
I really appreciate the detailed explanations and keys to each step shown.
An interesting alternative for nogi
I bought this as I'd started judo recently to supplement my BJJ. this shows throws and sweeps that most people won't learn in NoGi, which is largely based on wrestling and leg grabs. I think this video is good if you already know some judo concepts and techniques. However, it is really useful to know this style
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great for beginners
Let me start this review saying that I mostly train BJJ and that my stand-up game was bad only few months ago. I started training judo to rectify this problem and I have already noticed progress. Everyone can improve, all it takes is practice. Now, on to the review: The techniques shown in this video are simple and easy to understand. They are basic, but very effective. It’s something you can take and immediately start working on. This video is great for those who have no takedown skills and want to start somewhere. I can attest to the effectiveness of tai otoshi, ouchi gari, and osoto gari - these are my highest percentage moves both in bjj and judo. I bought this video since it was on discount and I always seek for extra knowledge. Even though I was already familiar with some of the techniques, the DVD was still worth the purchase because it’s relevant to nogi. In 52 minutes, for the price you’re paying, you get more than enough material to improve your takedown game, especially if you’re a beginner. Rick Hawn speaks clearly, straight to the point, so these 52 minutes will fly by quickly.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Essential viewing and one of the best values at BJJfanatics
Hawn focuses on a handful of easy throws that will not leave you exposed in a BJJ context. More importantly, he demonstrates how to chain these throws together. There is no fat on this video, It is short and to the point.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Cool

Awesome
Excellent details on set ups and unbalancing. This will help improve your standup game immensely.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻A Great Deal
This treatise gives you a neat set of no-gi takedowns that are easy to learn and easy to pull off under real conditions with a modicum of practice. At the current price, it's a real bargain.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻You Can't Beat the Price
With the major discount in place, this one's hard to pass up. You get a neat seat of easy-to-understand, easy-to-use and therefore effective techniques.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻No Gi Takedowns is by far one of the best
No Gi Takedowns is by far one of the best sources of techniques for takedowns, even if you are not able to apply precisely what you learn, at least you will get the concepts of no gi takedowns from Judoka
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Should mention it's judo focused
Good content, would like a bit more of it. Worth the money.
Not all throws created equal!
Circling/kuzushi (off-balancing) details are great. Some throws work better than others. The footsweeps are the highest percentage and lowest risk, although not as pretty as the hip and hand throws. Tai-toshi details are good, but be cognizant of leg length since long legs are just anatomically better for that throw. A good substitute is the uchimata paired with some leg sweeps. All in all, this is a good (kinda short) instructional. It's not comprehensive, but for introducing takedowns to your game, this will be a great starting guide. Remember, relax during throws and setups.

Useful
Been doing no gi for over a year now. Found myself more interested in throws instead of shots. Found this useful
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Well set up and easy
Well set up and easy to work with. Im not very experienced with take downs and this is exactly what i was looking for.
Excellent
After watching Rick Hawn hit an ippon seoi nage in mma, I knew he was one to keep an eye on. This instructional does not disappoint.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great Judo refresher for nogi and mma!
classic, high percentage judo techniques applied to nogi. Short and sweet, all of it highly useful, and good guidance on solid judo mechanics.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻judo nogi
nice instructions
Bang for your Buck
Lots of nogi judo takedowns in this video. Was able to pull some off this past week after watching this instructional! Initially, I had a really tough time pulling these moves off, but once I started focusing on trying to set up the throws and off-balancing my partners, the throws and trips became much easier! Definitely not easy to implement right away. You don't master Takedowns overnight but this is a solid instructional and has helped me improve!
Response from BJJ FanaticsKeep drilling and working hard! 🤗Lots of Value!
A much needed program on utilizing judo throws for no-gi! Liked the modified Osoto-Gari in particular.
