The Butterfly Re-Discovered Bundle by Adam Wardzinski
Great details on approach and intentional positioning!
Absolutely brilliant
How To Learn Jiu Jitsu by Chris Paines
I really love this instructional because it breaks down jiu jitsu into concepts that really help you to find a place in your mind to group, analyse, organise and understand the multitude of techniques that you will ultimately learn on your journey. Chris' style is clear, to the point and accessible and he undestands what a confused student might want and need to know, and gives you the solutions of HOW to think about and conceive the dilemas you will face on the matsw. Serioulsy, this is an instructional for all belts, and I will be coming back to this again and again. So so glad I bought this.
Informative and enjoyable

Love all of it
Must have for Top-Players
JLock by Jakob Müller
I’m a competitive blue belt who regularly competes, and I’ve attended several of Jakob’s seminars in Germany. This instructional is a strong continuation of what he teaches there and works perfectly as a reference and refinement tool. The J-Lock itself is a highly effective submission that holds up both in the training room and in competition. What makes it especially valuable is that it’s not just about finishing — the position gives excellent control and pressure, which makes it ideal for dictating the exchange. That control aspect will feel very natural to wrestlers and judoka, since Jakob clearly integrates concepts from both sports into the ground work. Beyond the technique, Jakob is simply a great instructor and person. If you ever get the chance to attend one of his seminars, it’s absolutely worth it.

Re discover the closed guard
Closet (Closed) Guard by Craig Jones
Closed guard is under appreciate in no GI and Craig really turns it in a offensive guard and not just a position you are before switch to another. No you can attack, sweep and submit, create dilemmas for finish.
The Magic Lasso by Fabio Trindade
amazing
Excellent
Fundamentals of Jiu-Jitsu: Introduction To Meregali’s Gi System by Nicholas Meregali
Really useful details in this Gi instructional. Easy to follow but packed with fine details that I have already implemented in my game.
Gem of an instructional. Game changing details
Fundamentals of Jiu-Jitsu: Introduction To Meregali’s Gi System by Nicholas Meregali
One of the most useful instructionalals in my library. Merengali is an excellent teacher who really emphasises and explains the fine details that make these techniques so useful. There are so many fine details that I keep going back to and refreshing. It is not a long instrumental but man is it packed with useful techniques and details. Highly recommend to brush up on your Gi game. Thank you for the effort Mr Merengali.
Kimura
Octopus Guard Engineering by Adam Wardzinski
Good details. Familiar issue in The position when the crossface happens.
A good guide to crucifixion
Crucifire by Bradley Schneider
A good guide to crucifixion. There are some exotic options.
Not much content. Good quality
Octopus Guard 2.0 by Craig Jones
A lot of Craig instructionals the value comes from his conceptual breakdown of positions rather than specific moves and that is the same with octopus 2. This one is especially light on content because most the turtle content is reused from Power Bottom. If you have seen that already and you don't tend to deal often with Darces, about 30% of the content is repetitive or low likelihood of getting used much. I still would recommend it for the whole first 2 volumes. Craig's explanation and demos of the concepts, and the section on common reactions (vol2) are excellent. I'd just make sure you have a hefty discount code

Power Ride: A New Philosophy on Pinning by Craig Jones
Excellent. Incredibly effective pinning positions! Craig Jones is funny as always, but very insightful, and does a great job of teaching concepts/theory, rather than just showing moves. Craig's instructional will make you rethink certain traditional BJJ positions, such as side control. This instructional is awesome.
