Game changer
The No Gi Butterfly Guard Rediscovered by Adam Wardzinski

Great instruction!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Fantastic but with one flaw
New Wave Jiu Jitsu: A New Philosophy Of Positional Escapes by John Danaher
Perfect teaching from the greatest Jiu-Jitsu coach of all time. Only one flaw of the series: The red shirt guy was frequently making unnecessary small moves while John was talking, dude even played with his own feet and then smelled his hand. I don’t have a problem with him doing all those off the camera but it’s just distracting and unprofessional for such valuable videos. I hope John replace him with someone who can sit still as a 10 year old could do when there’s no requirement for movements. Anyway I still rated the series 5 stars because of John, thank you for sharing your amazing knowledge John, it’s a honor to learn from you.

Great primer on the half guard. Makes the position more accessible for less experienced players.

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Self-Defense For Women by Deborah Gracie
I bought this for my two daughters who are both Asian. Because of the Asian hate today, I wanted something that would work fast, be effective and simple, Deborah Gracie’s video was that. Deborah covers situational awareness and the main defenses to most attacks on the street. I highly recommend this for anyone who is looking to protect themselves against sudden violence of any kind. This is a no nonsense practical guide to getting out of an attack and turning the tables. Also, Deborah is extremely polite and her genuine kindness as a person shines through. Highly recommended!

The No Gi Judo Collection by Matt D'Aquino
Haven't finished watching the series but it is explained well and demonstrated well, in real time. From what I've seen of this instructional so far this is strictly a technique video and not necessarily a video that explores concepts and technique chains.

Leglocks Unlocked by Tum Energia
I'm brown belt but never have experiences of tough Leglock fight. This video is really suitable for me! Instruction is clear. Easy to understand and drill. It surely build my foundation of Leglock skills. If you are a beginner of Leglocks and/or lost your motivation to watch very long videos, this is highly recommended.

Tiny Woman's Guide To The Guard by Ann Kneib
Objective of this instructional During the introduction Ann Kneib states that the instructional (Gi) covers concepts and techniques out of the closed guard including achieving the closed guard, guard maintenance, breaking the opponent’s posture, attacking after the opponent’s posture has been broken and the incorporation of information to assist a smaller person. In addition, two X guard sweeps are also included in this instructional. Content Volume 1 – Getting to and attacking from closed guard (34 minutes and 10 chapters, including one chapter for the introduction) covers: pulling guard from either standing or the knees; controlling the opponent’s posture and maintaining the collar grip; a modified collar choke (i.e. lever choke), which from my experience works and deals with the opponent attempting to block your second hand; obtaining the high guard, which involves locking your legs over the opponent’s shoulders; a triangle choke when you have the opponent in your high guard; and a shoulder lock or sweep when you have the opponent in your triangle position; and moving from the triangle position back to closed guard to attack with the lever choke. Volume 2 – Addressing the knee and knee slide (17 minutes and 4 chapters) covers: several techniques to deal with the situation where your closed guard has been broken and the opponent has one knee up, with the techniques focused on regaining the closed guard; and techniques for the situation where the opponent has started to do a knee slide pass with these techniques leading to either a half guard sweep or where the sweep is defended regaining the closed guard. Volume 3 – Addressing the half guard (19 minutes and 4 chapters) covers: a technique to respond to a situation where the opponent breaks your guard, stuffs one of your legs to move into your half guard, by moving directly into the knee shield position; a sweep from the knee shield position leaving you in the top half guard position or if they defend the sweep to regain the closed guard; and a sneaky choke from the knee shield position. Volume 4 – Unable to break the opponent’s posture forward (33 minutes and 9 chapters including the outtro) covers: dealing with an opponent who you cannot breakdown and where they posture vertically while on their knees by dropping to your feet in this position and walking them backwards so that you gain the mount; a back take alternative for the previous position; ankle sweeps (x2); techniques to deal with the opponent picking you up in the closed guard with one leading to a single leg takedown and the other you moving to an X guard; and two X guard sweeps. Ann Kneib speaks clearly and confidently. Her instructions are easy to understand. Techniques are repeated multiple times including instructions and one at full speed. Picture quality, range and sound are good and there are no issues in this regard. It is a basic setup with one fixed camera. Ann Kneib moves herself and her uke to provide different angles of view. The available preview clips are indicative of the whole instructional. As a general comment I think it is sensible when buying an instructional to think about the physical characteristics of the instructor (e.g., height, body type, age, strength, observed flexibility in the preview clips, etc) as this can influence the instructors use of and choice of techniques. A smaller player generally cannot rely on their strength or size (e.g., weight or limb length) to dominate a larger opponent and they must rely on their technique, leverage, movement, etc to overcome their negative strength differential. Ann Kneib is a great example of a smaller instructor who has developed skills to compensate for her size. That being said, I believe that this instructional is relevant and useful for people who are larger than Ann Kneib. In summary, if you are wishing to further develop your closed guard game regardless of your gender and learn some approaches to compensate for a size or strength differential, then I think this instructional will represent good value. I think that the content included is probably predominately suited for white and blue belts.
Response from BJJ FanaticsThanks so much for your detailed review! :hugging:Worth It!

Well worth the price you pay. The information and details given are worth every penny. There is no way your normal instructor is going to take the time to go into the detail that John does here. Lean the how and WHY.

My Evolution Your Revolution: ADCC 2019 Analysis by Gordon Ryan
I enjoy this style of breakdown, knowing the importance of each movement. While we may drill we never actually get true feedback during the drill. Gordon breaking down his match and explaining why each movement was made definitely opens your mind on how and why one should move a certain way

Get Off Me Fool by Jeff Glover
White belts and small guys this is a must have, unless you don't want to learn escapes for all the positions that "****". Even knowing these escapes you'll still need "good luck" as Jeff says throughout the video. Without this info you're getting smashed perhaps killed in the streets. It's practically free. BUY IT NOW.
