The Deep Fundamentals of My Half Guard
New Wave Jiu Jitsu: No Gi Half Guard 3 Directions of Attack by John Danaher
If you are looking to transform your bottom game from a position of survival into a highly offensive web of dilemmas, this is the instructional you need. John Danaher’s New Wave Jiu Jitsu: No-Gi Half Guard 3 Directions of Attack completely shifted how I view bottom control. As I've progressed through the ranks and refined my game at the brown belt level, I can confidently say that this specific series laid the deep fundamentals of my half guard game. Danaher doesn't just show you isolated sweeps or disjointed submissions; he builds a comprehensive, unified system.

Everything you need related to the kimura. I recommend his Crucifix series and his Side Control series to go along with this one.
AMAZING!!
The Misery Machine Pressure Punishment and Submissions From Kesa Gatame by Dan Hart
A must have for anyone looking to “cook” their opponent and make them hand you submissions. If you don’t believe Kesa is real, then you haven’t experienced it applied correctly. I get more submissions from pressure using this methodology than any other position. Dan Hart breaks it all down right here. Simple but not easy. Buy it!
great details

Leglocks: Enter The System by John Danaher
This series by Mr. Danaher is a comprehensive introduction to the leg lock attack game. Everything is clearly explained, including the reasoning behind the techniques, philosophy, and mechanics of all aspects. For older folks like myself, it's an eye-opening view of the dangers and opportunities a hobbyist and professional has at their hands (or feet).
Just incredible

Stick grappling is an evolution in the creation and application of joint locks
Weapons Based Grappling Fundamentals Vol. 2 by Rico Cortes
This curriculum is not only exceptionally designed in terms of pedagogy and didactics, but it also serves as an effective and efficient bridge between weapon systems derived from Filipino Martial Arts and grappling. This allows for maximizing the qualities of each art into a unique system that is much more than the sum of its parts. This module is perfect for law enforcement and even helps level the playing field between someone who isn't skilled in grappling and someone who is. In other words, it not only maximizes a grappler's skills and takes them to the next level, but it can also serve as an effective counter to grappling.
Helped a lot
Master The Move: Arm Drags by John Danaher
Used this to help begin building a system for myself after gaining blue belt and to beat the dreaded blue belt blues.
Exceptional content
The Misery Machine Pressure Punishment and Submissions From Kesa Gatame by Dan Hart
Fantastic breakdown of the position with an easy to follow sequence of techniques. I enjoyed learning the details that make a difference in effectively applying pressure, maintaining the position, and pursuing further transitions and attacks.
Works for small gals too!!
The Misery Machine Pressure Punishment and Submissions From Kesa Gatame by Dan Hart
Love this series. I can hit it on people my size and also larger people. Dan does a great job of explaining the position well to be able to have different body types utilize it.
Worth every minute!
The Misery Machine Pressure Punishment and Submissions From Kesa Gatame by Dan Hart
Dan Hart’s Misery Machine has completely changed the way I look at this position. Before watching the instructional, I viewed it as more of a transitional control, but Dan completely shifted my perspective by showing how to systematically create offense and apply relentless pressure from every stage. Since implementing the concepts, my ability to attack from the position has increased dramatically, and I’ve even started getting pressure taps from scarf hold, something I never thought would become a reliable part of my game. The instruction is clear, practical, and easy to apply during live rolls. If you’re looking to turn this position into a true offensive system instead of just a place to hold your opponent, I can’t recommend Misery Machine highly enough.
Very good instructional on Korean style seoi nage (and others)

Self Mastery: Solo BJJ Training Drills by John Danaher
The idea of solo drilling is fantastic for a beginner, while my body feels not ready at all for a third bjj session in a week, solo drills were a good option to build movements, burn calories off and perform active recovery.
