really good principles
Mirroring Principle: End Game Finishers by Wim Deputter
deputter teaches by principles - a method I love. deserves a chance, the video is packed with good stuff.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻I am glad I bought it
High Percentage Chokes: No Gi by Lachlan Giles
Systematic approach to the techniques. He is not only teaching the submission as a single technique, but gives you a context, entries to the position, control, action-reaction solutions, troubleshooting. Cover the chokes from different position as guard, top half guard, north south, inverted north south and standing. Give some tips how to adapt the move to your body type. I am glad I bought it. Lachlan is one of the best instructors on the site.

The Essential Shin To Shin System by Shawn Williams
Shawn Williams covers a lot of details about how the shin to shin setup can be used for leg attack entries, sweeps and back takes. I liked a lot of the setups covered and hope to implement them into my game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Amazing
The Daisy Fresh Side Control System by Andrew Wiltse
Great instructional. Really amazing details on maintaining and advancing positions in side control. I've been hitting a lot of the submissions in training the past few weeks. 10/10 recommend.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗pure gold
The Scarf Hold The Soul Stealer by Henry Akins
worth every penny and maybe more. do a proper scarf hold is like having a whole new arsenal. most of the opponents will not able to manage it. simply loved it... and Henry is a great teacher.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻different view, useful hints
The Lockdown Blueprint by Tom DeBlass
as i half guard player, I started using the position with the eddie bravo's old dvds. deblass really hit the nail, giving a new view on the position outside the 10th planet system and adapted to the modern grappling. well done.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Easy to understand

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻good instructional
The BJJ Warm Up You'll Never Skip by Vanessa Pinkham
used to do it a lot (and love it) until i really got into yoga. Still, it helped me a lot and, if you want something easier, is absolutely perfect.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Highly recommend for everyone
Back Attacks Enter The System by John Danaher
One of the first instructionals I devoured from start to finish. It helped me to deal with the blue belt blues by allowing me to take charge of my own learning process. Straitjacket and back triangle particularly were great addition for my game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻game changer
Understanding The Distance From Guard by Gui Mendes
gui mendes introduced a new way to teach. love it or hate it, it's different from anything here around. worth a shot, i learnt a lot.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Different Approach
Connected Reaction Second Guard (Defense and Escape from Side control) by Paul Schreiner
I highly recommend this instructional, as it contains information you won’t find anywhere else. Paul Schreiner is Marcelo Garcia’s main instructor, and it shows in the precise way he teaches his concepts. The elbow push escape alone is worth the price, and is a demonstration of MG unique and efficient style of Jiu-Jitsu.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Exceptional passing instructional!
New Wave Jiu Jitsu: No Gi Guard Passing by John Danaher
John Danaher delivers again. Exceptional high quality product.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻hate him or love him
Submissions or Nothing by Nicholas Meregali
but he is a great fighter. he is young and he doesn't hold back in giving you all the details to improve your game. really enjoyed.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great conceptual passing series
New Wave Jiu Jitsu: No Gi Guard Passing by John Danaher
A great passing series that's taught based on concepts rather than individual techniques. Allows you to adapt the instruction to your game and body type. Danaher is a great teacher
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Only The Finest Technique
Taking down Bigger Opponents by Jay Rodriguez
Jay Rod is one of the best jiu jitsu athletes in the world I would highly recommend learning from him! I'm really looking foward to improving my takedowns with this instructional 🙏� Osu :bow::martial_arts_uniform:
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Minimalistic approach
The Grilled Chicken Guard Retention System by Priit Mihkelson
The open guard is a very challenging position for the beginner, as well as for the advanced grappler sometimes. There are too many options (sweeps, submissions, back takes etc.) and it’s easy to get lost and not have your priorities down. That’s when Pritt’s minimalistic approach comes to your help. He mainly tells you what NOT to do, rather than showing a thousand different techniques. Easy to understand and apply, no matter what kind of open guard you play.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Where all the other guards meet
Classic Open Guard by Lucas Valente
The classic open guard is where you have access to all the other guards. It’s a highly offensive guard as well, as Lucas shows here, enabling you to shoot for omoplatas and triangles, mainly. As a Kron Gracie fan, this was a great add to my game. Highly recommended for older grapplers.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Cradle Everyone
The Blackout Hybrid Pin and Cradle System by David Petrone
Incredible techniques to really diversify any grapplers game. Very happy with this purchase and adding some sneaky creativity to my game. #cradlestrong
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻The evolution of choking techniques
High Percentage Chokes: No Gi by Lachlan Giles
Having started BJJ in the distant year of 1995, I remember a time when no gi chokes where mainly guilhotines and a few variations. As the sport evolved, anacondas and d’arces appeared and being on all fours was suddenly not safe anymore. Here Lachlan shows with minute detail how to set up and finish these lethal chokes. It’s amazing how such a young man can become a true BBJ encyclopedia. Almost all he shows can be used in the gi as well, with a few adjustments. Great instructional.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great resource for a newer student
The Straight Armlock Anthology by Lachlan Giles
Really good foundational video series. Lachlan is a fantastic instructor. Thanks for including the part about reducing back pain during armbars. Lol
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻simply perfect
The Straight Armlock Anthology by Lachlan Giles
lachlan is the gold standard for the instructional videos in 2022. this one is really packed with information and details. i will never regret the time i spent studying it.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻great BUT READ CAREFULLY
Inside The Closed Guard by Henry Akins
Agree with the other reviewer. The instructional is amazing. but (it's a big BUT) I'm a fan of Akins and own lot of his instructional videos (almost all on the site). if you have the escapes ones (armlock&chokes), half of the video is a repetition. Of the other half, a part is a repetition of itself with older footage (Henry has short hairs), with minimal differences. instruction are good? definitively are the details great as usual? yes but lot of the stuff here is already seen in other akins instructionals, or even in the same instructional (!) I Would recommend this video only if you want to pick only one. if you are interested in Akins system (that i LOVE), I would avoid - especially considered the price. BJJFanatics fantastic in giving me a refund as soon as I explained my motivations.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻It has it all
Pin Escapes & Turtle Escapes: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
As usual, John has done a really great job of gathering all information you’ll ever need about the subject at hand: escaping pins. It’s all there, don’t look anywhere else, and the techniques he teaches are tested in world level competition. It’s a must have.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Fantastic cutting edge instructional
New Wave Jiu Jitsu: No Gi Guard Passing by John Danaher

Dominate in Mount
The Peak Mount by Waldo Zapata
So the first time I watched this instructional, I felt overwhelmed. As with all instructionals there is alot to process at once, especially if you watch it in one go (which I always do because I just bought the DVD :grinning_face_with_star_eyes:). However, throughout the whole instructional Waldo stuck to a few key concepts that must be fullfilled in order to successfully work off of the Peak Mount. This way of teaching it stick better, since you go back to the mats with a clear ”top of mind”. Then upon rewatching, that is when it really starts to be a part of your game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Dominate in Mount!
The Peak Mount by Waldo Zapata
Throughout the whole instructional Waldo spoke clearly and stuck to a few key concepts that must be fulfilled in order to successfully work off of the Peak Mount. I find this way of teaching highly effective as it makes the information stick better. It enabled me to go back to the mats with a clear ”top of mind”. Then upon rewatching, that is when it really starts to be a part of the game. Thumbs up!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Top notch no-gi instructional
New Wave Jiu Jitsu: No Gi Guard Passing by John Danaher
Another excellent series from John Danaher. I was able to quickly implement passes from this system into my game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Good stuff
I have yet to go through the entire instructional (1 volume in so far). But I've already been able to apply the concept during a roll. Looking forward to the rest!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Excellent!

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Shin to shin!!!
The Essential Shin To Shin System by Shawn Williams
I’ve always used the shin to shin guard for an easy double as shown in this video. Now there are more techniques to add for shin to shin guard that flow easily into each other. This has helped my game a lot.

The Lapel Cradle Formula by Braulio Estima
Cradle passing is getting more and more popular, especially in no-gi. This instructional teaches how to do it in gi as well, and is a great addition to your guard passing game. Braulio gives clear and straight to the point instructions, so you can start implementing the techniques ASAP. Highly recommended!

Perfect for any white or blue belt trying to get comfortable with the fundamentals. Would recommend
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Always cool and interesting to
BJJ For The Street by Burton Richardson
Always cool and interesting to see a complete martial artist apply and teach techniques with clear and concise instruction….which, demonstrates Mr. Richardson’s deep tool bag set of skills. A nice guy teaching priorities for different situations.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Excellent compliment to your open guard game
Modern Reverse De La Riva by Jason Rau
Excellent instructional, even for an older hobbyist like myself. RDLR is my favorite way to lock in a more static position from open guard on opponents who are faster and more athletic than me. This instructional compliments Danaher and Ryan's open guard series, and gives you a solid RDLR game plan when you feel that wrestling up is not the best option for you.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Awesome

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great for ultra heavyweights
New Wave Jiu Jitsu: Side Attacks - Building a Devastating Side Control System by John Danaher
Side control is a staple for any heavy player. Predominately ultra heavyweights. This gave me a lot of in-site on what works and doesn’t for being an ultra heavy. As usual impeccable information. Just wish maybeeeeee it was a tad simpler and there was some rolling application after. That makes dvds worth it for me.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Learn to escape the highest level attacks from the back.
The Pillars of Defense: Back Escapes by Gordon Ryan
Gordon Ryan has become one of the premiere instructors of jiu-jitsu, not just one of the greatest competitors of all time (if not the greatest). His instructional bypass all the low percentage garbage that doesn't work at a high level so that you can create a game that's void of waisted effort and time. This series is no different. Gordon teaches us the escapes and the principles that that make him uncontrollable from the back. The difference between this instructional and others is that Gordon uses these escapes on a regular basis where most other high level competitors teach escapes but abide bad positions so often that when they end up there they look like white belts and panic. You can be sure of several things when watching one of Gordon's game changing instructional; he won't leave anything out (no secret techniques he won't show you, you can watch him use the systems he teaches at the highest levels), he will over deliver (more info than you can absorb in one or two viewings), and your game will take an amazing jump forward. Thank you Mr. Ryan
