Guard Retention: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
Danaher has nack for fine details. "Put your hand here,.." "Put your foot here,..." "Don't do this, because this will happen..." Literally walks you through each move with different views and explains everything in detail. This is a good addition to your library.

The No Gi Deep Half Guard 2.0 by Jeff Glover
Jeff’s deep half system is the guard the got me from purple to brown belt. I did a 3-day seminar with him in 2015, and this new instructional is a great way to see the material condensed into a simple and easy to follow reference guide. The lessons have also been even more streamlined and improved in the last few years. In a time where the overall game is getting more and more complex, this deep half system is a great and simple way to sweep everyone. The best part is that it makes your training partners and opponents feel like they swept themselves. 5 stars! I know the system and didn’t hesitate to buy it. Jeff Glover’s been giving to our community with awesome instructionals for over a decade. They’re only getting better too!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:call_me_hand::skin-tone-3::sunglasses:Less afraid of modern guards now
Passing Modern Guard Using Old School Concepts by Andre Galvao
The whole series is filled with information on grips, positioning and approach on how to pass the modern guards (DLR, lapel guard). I was able to apply some of them during my roll. I like how Prof. Andre presented the techniques from DLR to lapel guard it makes more sense and its easier to understand especially the mechanics of worm, de la worm, squid guard. I would say the target audience are those that had basic knowledge on guards and had been stuck on lapel guards. The only thing I would have wanted to see that needs improvement is the "zooming" to better see the grips, positioning of the hands. Overall this instructional is really good and a must have.

Half Guard: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
Strategic framework progression much like a university degree that provides a beginning middle and end which other non Danaher videos lack.
Much better than I expected.
Closed Guard: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
I have purchased a few videos in the past from other instructors but this has been the best purchase I have made. I will tell you without any hesitation that this is well worth the money. I really can't believe the depth and detail of the instruction. I was expecting the typical YouTube type video and was apprehensive about spending the money but I was wrong. The quality of this video far surpassed my expectations and I will buy more from John in the future! Truly fantastic!

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Excellent passing system
Gringo Guard Passing by Jake Mackenzie
Jake does a really great job of breaking down his passing system and not merely just some random passes. He uses the home base or "headquarters" position that a lot of pressure passing players are utilizing these days and goes in depth on your options there. He also goes in depth on passing half guard and some submissions, but I'm still working on the first dvd.

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:OUTSTANDING!!!
The Headhunter Guillotine Series by Neil Melanson
I am absolutely obsessed with this DVD. It is just INCREDIBLE!! It takes your bjj light years ahead of your game. Neil's teaching is impeccable and the amount of detail you learn is outstanding. The first time I started watching this DVD I could not stop and watched the whole thing with no break. It is just at a different level. I watched all 4 dvd 4 times while taking notes the first 2 weeks and each time I pick up new details and plan to keep watching it. Neil takes advanced techniques and breaks them down and makes them so effective that your training partners will hate you. The techniques and details create so much leverage and power and allow you to make your chokes incredibly powerful and devastating. Neil gives you some amazing tips to make the toughest athletes tap and it works!! I purchased several dvd's in past on guiletines, watched all instagram #guiletine and youtube videos and studied under several instructors and after I watched Neil's DVD's I felt like I knew nothing on this technique. It just opens a whole new world with several set ups, devilish details that is mind boggling. This DVD changed my whole aspect on strength training and BJJ. The technical detail is so elite that you put the gnarliest chokes on people and create devastating pressure to a point that can't be stoppable. The only regret I have is that I did not purchase this DVD earlier. The youtube videos Neil has on guillotines are great but does not do justice to how much great content there is on this DVD. I have been telling this dvd to all my friends. I can't recommend it enough !

The No Gi Deep Half Guard 2.0 by Jeff Glover
Jeff Glover is one of the most entertaining grapplers of all time and besides that he is also an excellent teacher. This particular instructional is proving it without any doubt. First of all - it's relatively short but packed up with useful stuff that is usable from day 1. You might feel that it's too short but actually you're getting complete system in a 90mins of video. Sweeps are highly efficient and high percentage, but what makes this instructional really stand out are deep half entries and troubleshooting. I pulled off some of those right away after watching it, and with time it's of course getting more refined and applicable. For all you half guarders out there - buy this one and you won't be disappointed. PS: unfortunately the section "Drills" is missing "Single leg drill" (both downloadable file and embedded video). The naming goes wrong with "Around the world" drill and it continues wrongly, but that's a details that doesn't impact my rate - which is 5 stars.
Learned more than Kimura's
Really enjoyed this DVD by Kyle Boehm. I was surprised to see how much content was included. This instructional covered leg locks, standing entries, and Kimuras as well. There is a lot of great information packed into these videos. The content is packed in and comes at you technique after technique.

The Half Guard Anthology by Lachlan Giles
Lachlan's teaching is both concise and deep, strategic and technical, he explains the why behind the moves, along with options and always considers the likely reactions of the opponent.

Kimura: Enter The System by John Danaher
I purchased this because I saw a purple belt come to our gym and ****** us with kimuras. When I asked him where had he learned them he mentioned mostly through Danaher's system, so I decided to try it myself. Now I am using this system even in the gi with good success.

Closed Guard: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
What I learned from watching JUST the first module has helped me increase my number of attacks significantly! Honestly, my closed guard attacks ****. And breaking posture has always been a real pain in the butt. True story: I watched the lesson on the 6 vulnerabilities and then went for a roll...I focused on using 2 of the vulnerabilities and during training and I found myself catching a couple of submissions, but what I liked most was that I made a quick and significant improvement in getting myself into position for more opportunities to finish. Since, my guard play has been nothing to write home about, I've always been content to work my way into side control ( my strength) even if that meant wasting a bunch of energy on escaping the bottom of side control after my guard was passed. So BONUS: I didn't feel tired because I was able to do a much better job of controlling the position and keeping the pressure on them. Anyway, if you struggle with wondering "what do I do from here?," or you're frustrated because your closed guard attacks only work on white belts who've just wandered onto the mat after their introduction class, then you need to buy this course. Personally, I've been in a state of raw joy since purchasing Closed Guard.
Simple but effective
Wrist Lock The World by Pete Letsos
Good techniques to add to a quiver of submissions. Sometimes when a sub doesn’t work as planned, a wrist lock is a great follow up.

General Introduction to Mirroring Principle by Wim Deputter
I have started with BJJ 8 months ago. At the beginning I struggled with understanding what is really going on. I had problems applying techniques as I was always overreacting by trying to be the strong leading guy. Also I knew how to do some stuff but I never get to do the techniques. After visiting a seminar with wim I learned to think and look on BJJ in terms of concepts. The mirroring helps me to concentrate more on my partner's reactions. Afterwards I purchased The DVD to get an opportunity to look Things up. And wim is delivering detailed techniques and concepts with his thoughts. I am just at the beginning of my journey but Afterwards I could relax more while training and even apply some techniques on my partner. This was even recognized by my coach and I was rewarded with 3 stripes. Big thanks to wim

Closed Guard: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
The first two hours was kind of a let down and was super repetitive, the last 15min summed it all up. It was my first Danaher purchase and I wasn't sure if it was worth saving up for. These videos are an investment. The next volumes were so packed with info and organized! Definitely worth the investment for anyone new to the game. It's the cost of a months worth of mat time for a lifetime of foundation.
