Battle Tested Down Under Leglocks by Craig Jones
even if you are good at leg locks or have an idea he breaks things down very simply and for sure you are going to find good details that are gonna help, not just your leg locks but your defense and back takes also. Breaks down the concepts of attacking and the defense together in a way that makes sense and teaches you both and also shows some cool bolos to tie it all together .

This is so good and one of the most useful and fun instructionals I’ve used. Very underrated.
Excellent context and instructions
Foot Sweep Flo by Justin Flores
Justin is not only a master of the craft but a great teacher also. I've been waiting for a BJJ Fanatics since I found him on IG and I am not dissapointed. Excellent conceptual teachings not just "do this" but WHY (which is key), and great practice exercises that actually make sense and you can practice straight away.
Lots of fun and great mobility building

So. Awesome!

Greatest
Leglocks: Enter The System by John Danaher
Great
Pretty Good
The Pillars: Open Guard Mastery System by Stephen Whittier
Great details and fundamentals for sure...but dang bro, next time film when there's not construction on the building going on b/c between that and the people jabbering in the background, it was a pretty distracting experience
Really good video!
Beat Bigger Stronger Grapplers Blueprint by Matt Arroyo
Fantastic video. I am a light weight in a gym with lots of heavy bodies. Helped me a lot!

Great
Woj Lock the World: A guide to the future of ankle locks by Chris Wojcik
Just started it, great step after learning heel hooks
A 50/50 encyclopedia
Leg Lock Anthology: 50/50 by Lachlan Giles
I used to avoid 50/50 at pretty much all costs, but after watching this instructional it's actually become one of my favored positions. Lachlan leaves no stone unturned, and provides you with answers for every scenario.
Usefull/Practical
I have been able to make this work despite the fact that Craig is Australian.
My favorite leg lock instructional:-)
Trials Winning Leg Locks by Taylor Pearman
Such a great instructional:-) Taylor makes the Inside Ashi position easy to understand and implement in your game, and is a great addition for grapplers at all levels:-)
Ridiculously Effective
The Rack by Kyle Watson
Okay… as you may read in other reviews, there are some audio issues in the video. However, the issues do not inhibit learning the material. It all comes across fine and, because the material is so good, it should not drop a star. I have a bunch of bjjfanatics videos. (I kinda have a bjjfanatics problem.) This is an awesome system. I have used The Rack successfully in class and I really like it. Because of the material I learned in this course, I don’t think I’ll ever pull someone on top of me to take their back (chair sit) again. It’s just not worth the risk of failing a submission and ending up on the bottom in an inferior position. The Rack system is so much easier and has a higher percentage of submission success. Kyle goes through The Rack position, submissions, alternate submissions and entries. It’s a versatile position that can be attained from anywhere. Great material that will forever be a part of my game. Highly recommend.
A Definite Must Have
The 50/50 Arm Passing System by Leo Vieira
I have A TON of videos. This is one of the best. No joke. Leo’s 50/50 arm control passing system is simple, yet effective. Since first learning it, I’ve had consistent success passing guards (even on higher ranked opponents). The look of bewilderment on an opponent’s face as you take the 50/50 arm control is so fun. Leo takes his time as he goes through the system, it’s entries and finishes. As a bonus, Leo lays out gems of techniques regarding approaching opponents in sitting vs. supine, preventing arm drags, proper knee cut technique and a bunch more. Really, REALLY good. Don’t hesitate to grab it. Thank you Leo for releasing this!
Helped my passing, great instructional
Movement Art Passing System: Concepts For Headquarters by Nick Salles and Danny Maira
These guys are great instructors. Surprised people don't talk more about their instructionals. Very thorough breakdown of tripod and headquarters passing.
B Team Top Game
Great instructional that focuses on combating several types of guard by not giving the guard player what he or she wants. It's geared more towards concepts and on fatiguing and controlling opponents rather than specific guard passes or submissions. Like all of Craig's stuff, the concepts and details are great and the videos are entertaining.
DEFENSE ...NOT offense
Rollo Smooth: Open Guard Offense by Gabriel Rollo
Despite the name, this is actually a course on DEFENSE...not offense. So beware of that. Also, It is SLOW to get his point across. S.L.O.W. b/c he struggles to get his thoughts across in English. Did I mention it was slow?
Lasso Guard in depth
The Complete Lasso Bundle by Marcos Tinoco
Marcos shares the incredible versitality of the lasso guard and everything possible that can come from it. His instructional is very detailed. This is the best lasso instructional series available.
Seated Guard Made Easy By Firas Zahabi

Foot Sweep Artistry
Foot Sweep Flo by Justin Flores
Justin Flores' foot sweeps are pure artistry, and every aspect of this instructional is solid gold. Great solo drills, partner drills, and techniques that are clearly explained, conceptualized, and illustrated.
Top Notch!
Mission Submission by Edwin Najmi
The technical details in here are amazing. I thought I had darce chokes down pat, because my submission rate was about 90% before watching this video...now I can easily see that approaching 100% thanks to Edwin's clever details!
Great concepts!
Unpinnable by Professor Henry Akins
Took it to the mat and had immediate success. Feel so much more confident escaping side control.
Hard to find tutorial!
Old School Judo by Garry St. Leger
Judo BB here who does BJJ. This is a diamond mine of information VERY well taught of Judo that is hard to find these days. I train with USA national champs and I don't get these tutorials because of rule changes. Absolutely diamond trove here, very well organized, and easy to digest.
Must
The guard Retention Anthology: Around and Under by Lachlan Giles & Ariel Tabak
probably the best instruction for the guard retention. even for the instructors, there's lot to learn. I'll teach guard to my son, based on this.
