Pin Escapes & Turtle Escapes: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher

The Science of Guard Passing by Lucas Lepri
I have yet to reach a year of practicing and have very little knowledge of passing anyone's guard. I was able to have success against more experienced grapplers with just watching how to remove the knee shield alone.

Leglocks: Enter The System by John Danaher
I always struggled with leg locks. However, Being a smaller guy in our gym leg locks are one of the most accessible and efficient techniques against my bigger fellows. And then I run into the leg lock game from Danaher and my game started improving. I’m more conscious in my approach and my chaotic attempts to get the legs became more structured. Highlight for me was the slack removal. Minor detail with tremendous return.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great Judo Instructor
Judo Basics by Shintaro Higashi
I found when starting grappling that most of the judo instruction online was very focused on isolated, specific techniques and situations. It was hard for me to build a mental model of how judo worked in general. I struggled to understand what I should do after my opponents didn't let me get the perfect set up for these individual techniques I saw online Then I found Shintaro's youtube channel. He is a fantastic source to understand not only individual Judo techniques, but also the conceptual and fundamental elements of judo which help you understand the art in a more general sense. His instruction is helping me build a system of understanding what I should do, when, and why... making learning techniques and successfully applying them much easier. I was happy to buy this video even when his free youtube content is great. This is an excellent all in one package that goes above and beyond for a someone looking to start building a strong stand up game and speed up their growth in understanding and progressing Judo
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Overwhelmed
Leg Lock Anthology: 50/50 by Lachlan Giles
I have watched about 1/6 of it and I am already amazed at how much quality content there is... There is enough information here to build a curriculum having 3 -4 classes a week for two years.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Incredible value
Closed Guard: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
I used to have to pay over 200$ an hour for this kind of instruction in privates. For closed guard you’re not going to get any better.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:World class instruction
The Omoplata by Kristian Woodmansee
Kristian Woodmansee is one of the best instructors I've encountered on my BJJ journey. Effective techniques broken down for all levels. All of his instructional videos are worth the investment.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:One of the best technique compilations I've seen.
Wrestling Fundamentals From The Bad Guy by Chael Sonnen
I've always been amused by Chaels ability to speak and commentate, but was actually surprised at how good of an instructor he is. He balances demonstrating a wide array of techniques, concepts, and drills with great explanations while maintaining a well-paced and interesting flow. I have been doing mma and gi brazilian jiu-jitsu for about a year and 9 months with Ufc veteran Spencer Fisher(amazing coach, he must have doubled my knowledge in a year), and did various bjj, wrestling and other grappling for mma for a few years before that, and I feel I picked up at least 3 legitimate things to add to my overall game within the first 10 minutes, and was refreshed on many great things I knew but haven't implemented as much lately. Chael maintains his positive, vibrant energy throughout the entirety, and connects concepts very well, with more knowledge than I expected, with the ability to convey that knowledge in a timely and easy to absorb manner. I'd pretty much recommend this to any grappler, and to anyone in mma as well who wants to add more pieces to their game. I would consider myself primarily a striker with good submissions and defensive grappling, but I've been doing a lot of offensive wrestling with confidence since I got Chael's course.

Closed Guard: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
It’s like having a private lesson whenever you press play! Professor’s detail and explanation makes it very easy to follow and implement right away. I’m able to pass along many of his techniques and theories to my students. He is truly an amazing martial artist and teacher.

Rubber Guard: The Meathook by Brandon McCaghren
I bought this instructional from Brandon literally a year ago today and realized I had yet to write it a review. Over the year I’ve owned this content, I can’t believe the amount of times I gone back to it to look up a specific detail, set-up or a mechanic I’m missing in a particular movement. Brandon does and absolutely amazing job at breaking down positions, mechanics and points of control that make the techniques work so incredibly well. The information is exceptionally detailed and Brandon has a way of breaking down the techniques into manageable, understandable pieces of information that only a high level grappler and coach can. Highly, HIGHLY recommend.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Solid & Insightful

Bulletproof For BJJ by Joe Worthington & James Tomlinson
For staying limber and developing functional strength for BJj, this set is by far the best for remaining injury free or recuperating!
Absolutely Superb Material for any Grappler at any Level
Leglocks 101 by Charles Harriott
Leg Locks 101 is a must for any grappler looking to learn or improve on their existing leg lock game. Filled with drills, mini games, set-ups, escapes and a plethora of finishes this content is something that I’ll be revisiting and studying from for a long time. Charles has an amazing way of breaking down complex positions, concepts and breaking mechanics in a way that screams years of high level experience in both training and coaching others. Honestly cannot recommend enough!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Creative Approach
General Introduction to Mirroring Principle by Wim Deputter
This is fantastic if you may be in a rut and are looking for some A-Z ideas dealing with little details of which arm leads when, and centerline in a grappling context among other things that are certainly fresh in the instructional video sense but maybe in general depending who you learn from. I say 5 stars easy for creativity alone, and extra points for usable well explained technique.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:+1::skin-tone-2::hugging:This instructional respects your time.
Exit The System by Garry Tonon
Garry is quick and to the point with all of these escapes. I was able to sit down and watch the entire video in one go. Lots of great escape information that was previously unknown to me and things to revisit. I will definitely be going back through and revisiting techniques taught in this instructional.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Crazy Details
Closed Guard: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
Im a whitebelt who always get stuck in closed guard not knowing what to do or how to attack properly. Danaher explained thoroughly the details that sometimes i tend to forget. Truly, Danaher is the best coach out there. His small details end up in big rewards! Great vid!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Loved this
Systematically Attacking From Closed Guard by Gordon Ryan
Love this system. Really like gordans teaching style bit faster and more watchable than Danaher stuff.
AWESOME
Triangles Enter The System by John Danaher
I new Mr Danaher had incredible teaching abilities (the achievements of his athletes speak for themselves) but I'm shocked by how incredibly good he's at teaching by video. I'm a pretty short and stocky guy and had real difficulties locking triangles, but working on the material of this dvd I'm having a really good success with them (all 5 of them). The only regret is the high price, but I feel that the investment was really well worth it.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:A masterpiece!
Side Closed Guard Attacks by Xande Ribeiro
Xande revealing the secrets of his signature go-to move. It has so much detail in it. Combining these side closed guard attack techniques with his diamond concept improved my guard game significantly. I highly recommend buying both of Xande's videos. Worth every single penny. Love from South Korea.
Response from BJJ FanaticsCool! Keep studying and working hard! :hugging::hearts:️John Danaher's Closed Guard DVD
Closed Guard: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
This is a well thought out DVD for a fundamental program. The explanations are very clear and precise. The study of this dvd will provide you with jewels that will last your entire jiujitsu career/experience. Well done. Very well done.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great Overview
Foundations of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu by Bernardo Faria
This is great for beginners because you get a good overview of all the fundamentals. You can make sure you don't have any holes in your game before you try to move on to the more advanced stuff, or just refine the basics and still have a great game.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great passing sequence from Braulio Estima
The Lapel Cradle Formula by Braulio Estima
Very powerful and unique open guard passing system. I am having a lot of success with it!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:I am so happy to see that this video is finally out.
Closed Guard: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
I wanted to see his teachings on closed guard, as I thought that any learning of Jiujitsu should start from closed guard. As I am watching through the series, I feel that my thought is not only fully justified, but also Danaher went far beyond my expectations as always is the case. I am so happy to know this man and his teachings.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:As expected of two of our Best Olympians
The Judo Academy by Jimmy Pedro & Travis Stevens
This was a great product. It was concise, no fluff and was adequate in explaining not just the movements but the reasoning that can be applied to other concepts.

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Awesome Lapel Ideas
The Lapel Guard Blue Print by Alex Huddleston
I have taken many of Professor Alex’s classes and had the opportunity to take a few privates with him as well. Love his approach to Jiu Jitsu and especially his cerebral style. I’ve just started watching his lapel blueprint and am sooo excited to start drilling some of these ideas - Americana to Lapel Ezekiel to Pendulum Sweep! :smiling_imp:
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Amazingly powerful stuff!
General Introduction to Mirroring Principle by Wim Deputter
As a white belt I often felt as though it was 'game over' as soon as my opponent, especially a higher belt or just a heavier opponent, would pass my guard or achieve an advantageous position over me. Wim Deputter proves anyone who thinks that way wrong, big time. These are the foundations you need to turn defence into attack. The beauty of Wim Deputter's system is that it's useful for any level of bjj practitioning. And Wim Deputter never loses touch with the self defence aspect of bjj, which is absolutely a plus for me personally.
Great Video!
Bernardo Faria Battle Tested Half Guard Mini Course
Great video but the mini course is too short.
