Most Comprehensive Bolo System
No Gi Berimbolo System Part 1 by Mikey Musumeci
This is the most detailed instructional I've seen on the bolo system. It's difficult to find instructionals that include as many of the sub systems (crab, crab x, leg drag, etc) as Mikey does here. The only thing missing is entries into the bolo as Mikey only discusses the classic de la riva entry. Sincerely hope there is a part 2 coming.
Guard retention
Guard Retention: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
Always helpful in building a strong fundamental knowledge base. Danaher is a fantastic teacher and breaks things down in a simple way.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗A must have for half guard player
Hippo Half Guard by Michael Zenga
Highly recommend it to all my fellow half guard player. Sensei Zenga fixes all the holes when playing the half guard. Not only the techniques but also some wisdom on drilling and rolling he learnt from the big name like Giancarlo and Mikey. This instructional is a great preference for my half guard game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great insight into single leg setups
World Championship Single Leg Setups by Kyle Dake
I lean towards single leg as my favored takedown and am trying to learn as much as I can about setups. There is discussion on footwork and hand fighting that I had not seen elsewhere. I appreciate his perspective since he is closer in size to me than other instructors I’ve seen
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Golden freebie
High Percentage Gi Passes by Gordon Ryan
Gordon teaches well. I enjoyed the integration of passing styles to the lapel passing. It’ll be interesting to see if he implements on the comp mats.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Awesome. I have Danaher's half
Half Guard Domination 2.0 by Tom DeBlass
Awesome. I have Danaher's half guard series and love it, but it's nice to get different explanations from other reputable instructors. Also like supporting Tom because of all the anti-bullying stuff he does on social media.

Andrew is fantastic at explaining things. I love the order this instructional is compiled it. it aids in making the system logically make sense.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Exploring The Empty Half Guard
Exploring The Empty Half Guard by Daniel Paul Pollaccia
Professor D. D. P. offers a system which will be kind of a back up system in my game. I like the positions and techniques because most the given ones are working back and forth with very little adjustments. Some of my favourite grips and submissions are right there too.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Conceptual Defense
New Wave Jiu Jitsu: A New Philosophy Of Submissions Escapes by John Danaher
Another classic John Danaher instructional. He gives a good conceptual over view of defending various submission attacks. Does he give you every possible escape? No but he gives you the tools to discover and create your own escapes in real time.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Fantastic resource

Gracie Fundamentals: Guard Passing - Dealing With Flexible Guards by Rayron Gracie
A very complete and efficient system, worthy watching and learning.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Best Conceptual Torreando Instructional on BJJ Fanatics!
Footwork Passing vs The Supine Guard by Isaac Doederlein
This was a fantastic course. I gotta say when I saw the trailer I thought it was cool the passes being displayed here. Watching some drills you can find on the internet for warmups like torreando, leg drags etc I wasted no time in buying Isaac's course as I believed he could teach the concepts here very well. I watched volume 1 many times just to get the hang of the other techniques he was teaching and that's the most important part as you let everything else flow naturally when you train. I used this course as preparation for my tournament recently and I was able to achieve more guard passes than I normally would. I cannot wait to watch the footwork passing vs seated guard next. Thank you Isaac for sharing this knowledge!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Yeah this works.
First Principles Escapes: Mount and Knee Ride by Stephen Whittier
I’m a big fan of BJJ Fanatics videos by Danaher and Lachlan Giles. I’ve been mostly watching those two since I started Juijuitsu. I heard Mr Whittier on a BJJ podcast and was intrigued by his different approach to learning based on first principles. I watched the whole thing straight thru and it made a difference in my game that night in training. I’ve barely scratched the surface but the slight shift in conceptual outlook and remembering a few highly relevant details instead of trying to recall a specific technique in various situations discussed here seems to make techniques emerge without my consciously recalling them. Which oddly seems both faster and easier. It’s tough to explain but I hope this helps anyone considering buying this. In my opinion the value here is exponentially greater than the cost.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Amazing

Battle Tested Pressure Passing by Bernardo Faria
I find this tutorial highly effective for teaching my older / larger students. think master 3&4 guys that are heavyweight and up. great details on maintaining pressure without having to be extremely flexible or explosive. my guys love the technique

Great video on developing strength and endurance to roll longer and reduce injuries. Just wish it was on body weight exercises.

Great overview but missing some positions
Leglocks: Enter The System by John Danaher
Overall this is a great conceptual introduction to leglocks. There are some positions that are clearly missing such backside leglock positions as well as the whole z-lock system. Would be great to get an updated version.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗great
You Can't Knee bahh by Craig Jones

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Good Manual for Closed Guard
Next Generation Closed Guard by Mica Galvao
The volume of closed guard is good, but most of the material can be found on other volumes covering the same topic. That prevents this from being amazing however, Micael covers some details here and there not found in other instructionals

Guard Retention: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
Sooo much food for your thoughts. It will require a lot of time and patience to go through it, but the general theory part it's worth every second and penny. Game changer.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Devils in the details. Great suppliment to his triangle book.
The Science of Filthy Triangles by Neil Melanson
This one is one his best instructionals. Covers slot of details on finishing triangles with of lots of check points so you can recognize what to do when. I've hurt my ankles and broke both my pinky toes squeezing like **** when the guy just isn't tapping. if I saw this before, I would have made the right adjustments and finished easily.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great

Killer Leglocks From Side Control by Erik Paulson
attacking legs from side control is useful do to how common the side control position occurs when grappling. The ability to attack knees and toes from this position often catches the opponent by surprise.

Incredible details from this instructor, he has amazing insights on passing, just the adjustments to for the Sao Paulo pass alone make this a must have instructional. Can't recommend this enough.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great techniques and he gets right to the point
No Gi Takedowns Made Easy by Rick Hawn
If you like instructionals that get right to the point, this is a great one with many takedowns taught. A little background and experience is helpful, like knowing the importance of Kuzushi in setups. As I’ve progressed in my grappling skills, I’ve come back to study and I learn more details each time I do this. It’s a great reference to have!

Leg Lock Defense: Survive And Escape by Giancarlo Bodoni
This has been a very helpful video for me. It has so many details and since I'm not a highly experienced belt that's such a good thing. I digest it a little bit at a time, with whatever leg attack problem I'm having at the moment.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Best submission escape instructional
Exit The System by Garry Tonon
Like the title of the review says the best submission escape instructional ive watched, does an amazing job explaining simply the key concepts needed to understand how to not only get out of a submission but go on your own attack immediately highly recommend for all levels and belts
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗The devil is in the details
Kimura Hunting by Kazushi Sakuraba
Lots of new tricks for your arsenal. The translation is smooth and doesn't impact the understanding of the sequences. The masterclass' flow is amusing, although I would have personally enjoyed some more structure. I would 100% recommend this video though: the price is fair and Saku's details will greatly improve your techniques!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Enjoyed learning some of these.
