Comprehensive but easy to understand
Foundations of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu by Bernardo Faria
This is an really well put together, comprehensive but very understandale foundations programme. I have already started to use a lot of this in my game and I am already seeing results. It has also helped me rethink my approach to BJJ stopping me from overthinking and focus on basic high percentage moves. It's definitely worth it for me and I think the majority of this will build the blocks for me to work towards my blue belt and even beyond.
Great framework for structuring your training
90 Day Project Based Jiu Jitsu by Josh Vogel
I met Josh and got to train with him, which is one of the reasons I was so eager to purchase this instructional. His jiu jitsu is incredibly technical, with little wasted movement or effort. The idea of always having something that you're working on specifically is a powerful way to gain skill and understanding, and this instructional lays it all out for you in an easy-to-understand way.
Highly recommend

Solid teaching on a side clamp/closed guard with the leg used as underhook as in Omoplata, enforced with an overhook with the arm. This is a succinct presentation of the William’s Guard.

imho, craig is the best jiu jitsu athlete there is. the core of what makes him great is his intelligence. obviously this leads to him being a great instructor as well. the content is great, explanation easy to understand and laid out well. i have bought other instructional video's from craig, and plan to buy a few more. just going to take time to practice and perfect. even though i am an old guy, new to the sport, i still have gotten a lot of value from his content.

Great Instructional for New Leg Lockers!
0-60 Leg Locks by Troy Russell
If you are new to learning leg locks, this is a great instructional that'll help you build a foundation from which to grow your game. This instructional goes over the major positions and finishes rather than a deep dive just into one or two entanglements which is definitively more helpful to beginners.

Breaking The Triangle: Escapes, Counters & Sneaky Submissions by Joshua You
I really liked this one. Joshua You explains everything in a way that actually makes sense and is easy to follow, even if triangle escapes usually feel confusing or overwhelming. I liked how he doesn’t just show how to get out, but also how to turn the position into something you can use to your advantage with counters and sneaky submissions.

A new way to think about what to prioritize when grappling.
Power Ride: A New Philosophy on Pinning by Craig Jones
This instructional has a huge impact on my decision making processes and how I approach holding people down. It is a positional grey area that you can keep the match in to make your training partners play a game they don't have a lot of time practicing. It feels like a cheat code to turn purple belts into blue belts and blue belts into white belts. I have rewatched the whole instructional at least 5 times.
John Danaer, as always, excellent

Self Mastery: Solo BJJ Training Drills by John Danaher
John Danaher's Self Master: Solo BJJ Training Drills is a great introduction into the world of BJJ. I found it very insightful as self-mastery involves the intention and reflection of the athlete. I most definitely recommend this to anyone who is curious about BJJ. My takeaway is, self-mastery does not occur overnight, rather, it requires deliberate consistency.
