Upper Body Takedowns For Grappling by Adam Wheeler
the instructional covers the upper body takedowns, quite neglected by Bjj practitioners. it do that with a deep knowledge, a great communication style and explaining how to chain the techniques, this last one being the difference between a good and a great instructional.

Buzzsaw Passing: Gi by Andrew Wiltse
This is a refreshing take on both passing the guard and instructionals. Andrew and bird do a great job illustrating every concept from multiple angles. The explanation is also sufficient to install both the technique and the reason for applying the technique. One thing that I would love to see is actual footage from competitions or rolls where Andrew applied the principles. That's just for constructive feedback though, I've been taking what I learned here and seriously beating up guard players at the gym. Emotional damage.

The Art & Science Of Ground And Pound Part 1 by Greg Jackson
This video changed my whole perspective on what ground and pound is and how it should be performed. Greg Jackson details how ground striking is an art form separate from any other striking art form, and should be studied and practiced as such. One of my favourite tapes I’ve bought thus far.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻extremely helpful! great job Richardson!
18 Mount Escapes For Sport and Street by Burton Richardson
The content in this video is pure gold. I have watched other mount escape videos by some other popular names, and while those videos were also great, I believe this mount escape series by Burton Richardson is the best one because it was easier for me to understand the concepts along with practical application. The instruction is very detailed and covers numerous situations as well as counters. The escape combination part was also very helpful and is very eye opening. This video is extremely thorough and well done!

I didn't realise how much I loved catch wrestling. However I have used these techniques repeatedly in training. Little bit more aggressive and brutal than BJJ which appeals to me

Mastering The Lapel Guard Volume 1: Introduction To The Galaxy Guard by Braulio Estima
nice instructions
Put some effective old school sweeps and submissions into your closed guard game ***(Long review)***
The Most Deadly Closed Guard by Marcio Stambowsky
This instructional teaches a series of old school Gi sweeps and submissions. This is a techniques focused instructional. It does not attempt to be a comprehensive closed guard instructional, but rather provides a series of interesting and effective sweeps and submissions that are generally not taught in other closed guard instructionals. Marcio Stambowsky effectively explains and demonstrates the techniques contained in this instructional. As expected, techniques are repeated from multiple angles. In my opinion these techniques are effective and not complicated. There is a good flow from technique to technique (e.g., Volume 2 teaches the combo grip and then a series of submissions based on what opportunities are provided by the opponent). A person of average fitness and flexibility should have no difficulty learning and using the techniques taught in this instructional. There is minimal banter, which I think is a good thing. The instructional has been filmed with a fixed camera. The quality of the video is good as is the range and there are no issues with the microphone. If you are wanting to surprise your training partners and competitors with closed guard techniques that they are unlikely to be familiar with, then this instructional should interest you. This instructional has a total runtime of 1 hour and 37 minutes. The next section of the review gives an overview of the content of this instructional by volume, if this information interests you. Volume 1 (30 minutes long) covers sweep techniques all using a cross grip. The volume also includes variations for some of these techniques. The big brother sweep is where the opponent is pulled forward using both your arms on the same side (i.e., cross grip to the sleeve and the other hand holding either the top of their shoulder or the GI under the triceps) in unison with your legs so that the opponent is pulled onto your chest, held down and swept over primarily with the use of your legs in a movement like a pendulum sweep. After the opponent is swept you should end in mount top with your chest pinning their elbow onto their own chest and they are submitted with a wrist lock from the application of pressure to their elbow with their hand held flat to the mat. The second sweep taught is the hip bump with an emphasis on teaching the action reaction entry, lifting your hips and finishing with an S mount armbar. The final technique is the alpha position and multiple finishes are taught. The alpha position is entered using the same hand position (i.e., cross grip to sleeve and other hand connected at the top of their shoulder) and using the legs the opponent’s arm is pulled across their chest. Once their arm comes across their body you reach over their back and grasp under their armpit and with your free arm raise yourself to attach your body across their lower shoulder. This blocks their ability to pull their arm back that you have pulled across their body. From the alpha position you can drive forward using your back leg to take the mount; attack a simple and cool submission, if the opponent attempts to pull out your posting arm; depending on the response from the opponent there are options to take their back or sweep them backwards to the mount and again finish with a simple and clever armlock submission. Volume 2 (25minutes long) covers primarily submissions from closed guard using the combo grip. A series of techniques are taught that are based on the combo grip, which is achieved in situations where you are in closed guard and your opponent steps up with one leg. The grip is initiated where your cross grip already controls the opponent’s arm and you pass your other arm under and through the opponent’s raised leg. Then sleeve control of their arm is passed to your arm that is under and through their leg. Your same side arm will now control their arm via their sleeve. Once this initial control is gained then with your other arm you initially pass it under the opponent’s arm, which will be supporting some of their weight and then dropping your arm close to their hand to pull their arm back towards your chest and finally gripping their sleeve for control. The combo grip is now complete and the opponent can be swept firstly by pulling them forward using your legs and then using your legs in a movement similar to a pendulum sweep so that you finish in the mount top. The second technique taught from the combo grip is an armbar when the opponent postures up to avoid the risk of the sweep. Again, from the combo grip Marcio Stambowsky teaches an omaplata sweep and the triangle choke, if the opponent pulls their arm out when you are attempting the armbar. If the opponent cannot be swept because they bring their weight low, then a backwards rolling sweep to either a wrist lock or alternatively moving to mount top and then applying either a triangle choke or an armbar is taught. The armbar leg placement is interesting. The final technique of this volume is a sweep
Great escapes, succinct and effective

New Wave Jiu Jitsu: Open Guard vol 2: Sweeps and Reversals by John Danaher
As always Mr.Danaher never disappoints with these instructional’s. Information you can apply instantly to your next class is just amazing. Would recommend to anyone in the community.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Such a useful video set
Train Safe: Reducing The Risk of Injury Accidents In The Jiu Jitsu Training Room by John Danaher
It is really really cool that they were giving this out on a promotional basis. While in other videos John can get kind of dense, this series is concise and gets to the point of giving very good information that is valuable in any gym setting. Something like this should be required viewing before you even step on the mat, really.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Split Guard
The Split Guard System by Karel "Silver Fox" Pravec
I got everything I wanted out of this instructional. The split guard can work in gi, no-gi, and self defense/MMA. It is also conveniently accessible from some side control escapes and turtle escapes. Karel does a great job organizing this instructional to provide you with his system thus saving you years of thought and experimentation to figure it out on your own. He teaches is you several submissions from the split guard and several entries as well. The ude gatame section was kind of a bonus section for me that I was not expecting. He teaches it because it is somewhat related to the split guard. In addition to this instructional, Karel will answer questions on it during his live streams. He currently streams on Fridays in the earlier half of the day, and he is happy to answer questions especially if you purchased the split guard and still need some answers.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Killer Guard Pass, Devil is in the Details
Jiu Jitsu for Old Guys: Over / Under Pressure Passing System by Bernardo Faria
This is a great technique, and a great way to "cook" your opponent while you set up a guard pass. I haven't found many people who can defend the shot . I do have a lot of trouble getting elevated by stronger opponents though. Fortunately, that puts me right in deep half-guard (when I get sumi gaeshi'd towards my head).
