Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻An easy improvement to your half guard game – simple and effective sweeps and back takes (Long review)
Mastering The Giggler Sweep by Sean Roberts
This instructional by Sean Roberts teaches the giggler sweep and its many variants. Additionally, some complementary techniques for the knee shield are also taught. This is a techniques based instructional for the half guard and has a total runtime of 1 hour and 42 minutes. Sean Roberts is clearly the giggler sweep expert. He takes the time to highlight the important details for each technique taught. Variations to the giggler sweep are taught, which respond to the opponent’s possible actions and ensures that the technique will work. Sean Roberts is easy to understand, he explains effectively and demonstrates clearly. He stays on point and there is no unnecessary banter. He is thorough in his teaching, often highlighting potential mistakes in the application of a technique and additionally the likely responses from the opponent as the technique is being applied. Technique demonstrations are repeated from different angles to the camera, so to ensure the viewer can see the important details and movements. The instructional has been filmed with a fixed camera. The quality of the video is good, as is the range and there are no notable issues with the microphone. The available previews are consistent with the whole instructional. A minor point, but ideally it would have been good if the lighting display on the speaker located in the rear right of the screen had either been moved out of frame or alternatively turned off. In summary, in my opinion if you are interested in improving your half guard or specifically interested in learning the giggler sweep in detail with its many variations you cannot go wrong with this instructional. While it is a very specific topic, it is a useful, efficient and effective technique to know. Additionally, the instructional includes several practical back takes. The next section of the review gives an overview of the content of this instructional, if this information interests you. Volume 1 – Includes the introduction and how to set up the giggler sweep from the knee shield. This includes the placement of your body (i.e., for the knee shield position) and details your leg positions, your first grip - how to control their sleeve, the position of your second grip on their belt and framing their arm inside your top leg. Volume 2 - Entries are initially taught from the knee shield with variances for when the opponent steps up the opposite leg, situations when they hesitate and don’t engage, and for situations where they appear to be aware of the technique and tilt themselves away from you. The next section of the instructional covers what to do after sweeping the opponent using the giggler 2.0 and teaches several passes and one back take trap option. A clever entry is taught where you have been sprawled on (e.g., a failed takedown) using the giggler sweep 2.0. An option is taught where you are using a lasso or the opponent attempts a leg weave to use the standard giggler sweep or where there is some hip separation to use a version where you move you hip into his hips (i.e., the grave digger). Sean Roberts revisits the basic giggler to show you how to deal with an opponent using their free hand to post or if you choose to use an underhook how to deal with the opponent responding with a whizzer. The giggler 3.0 is taught which is a bait and roll technique designed to trap more advanced players. A complementary technique to the knee shield is taught (i.e., backwards kick sweep) which involves initially pinning his top arm to your chest, using your other hand to grasp the cuff of the pants of his free leg and after pushing forward quickly with your knee shield to make room to insert your whole leg to enable you to place your foot on his stomach. To sweep, you continue to hold his leg cuff, extend your leg to push him over and come to top side control. A number of other complementary techniques for the knee shield including the lasso tilt sweep, utilising a lasso and the motion of the giggler; the push grip technique involves breaking the opponents grip of your GI using your top leg, stiff arming this arm across his body to gain access to the opponent’s back or if they move to half guard to move to the top position; lasso hand switch back take is similar to the previous technique but instead utilising either a lasso or half lasso to assist in gaining access to the opponent’s back; a lasso de la riva sweep to side control top for situations where the opponent steps up with the knee of the leg being controlled by your half guard hook. The final two techniques taught in Volume 2 includes a back take after the opponent has been swept by the giggler sweep, this is an advanced technique that involves an inversion and an outside lock down; and the final chapter of this volume shows you multiple ways to encourage the opponent to apply pressure into you or close the distance between your hips and their hips when you are in the giggler sweep position (i.e., so you can generate additional m

New Wave Jiu Jitsu: A New Philosophy Of Submissions Escapes by John Danaher
I'm on part 7 out of 8, and have some drilling to do to ingrain some of these, but already I'm getting subbed significantly less. The leg lock section in particular, which I haven't finished watching yet, has made a big impact. I used to be afraid of leg locks, and not really know how to escape, but now I'm letting people enter into my legs, and only really proficient leg lockers are submitting me.

Collar & Sleeve Guard a Systematic Approach by Isaac Doederlein
Isaac is one of 4 Americans to win the Brazilian Nationals. This DVD demonstrates an amazing foundation for anyone looking to start playing collar sleeve. I knew nothing of the position, personally as an average jiu-jitsu guy. The best parts aren't really the attacks, but actually the concepts. Things like "hips to grips" will stick with me forever. Concepts over techniques as he says. He's also is a really good teacher, and you can tell he knows a lot about this position inside and out 5 stars for sure!
