Simple and effective takedowns anyone can implement
Takedowns For The Rest of Us by Michael Heinz
I’m a student of Michael’s and I’ve enjoyed his approach to takedowns. We learned a good deal of this system in our classes, but having it all put together in a nice package here is quite helpful. I found over my years of training that most schools just don’t spend enough time on takedowns and so many of us, especially as we get older and more concerned about injuries tend to just avoid takedowns altogether, or worse, end up being shameful guard pullers 😆. This system is great for being a very approachable and easily implementable way of handling stand-up and getting simple takedowns that won’t be so stressful on your body. I haven’t been through the entire video series here, but I’m sure Michael also shares a lot of interesting nuggets along the way, he does like to talk a bit, but it’s always interesting. I’d recommend checking this one out.
Perfect for the “mature” practitioner
Takedowns For The Rest of Us by Michael Heinz
Starting jiu-jitsu at 50 and not having had the benefit of anything like wrestling or judo in my life up to now, this series is like a cheat code for approaching the takedown part of the game. Michael has managed to break down a complete standup system into easy to understand parts that not only work well on their own but together to create a whole series of dilemmas and trilemmas. This isn’t a “here’s how to do these specific takedowns” kind of series. The approach deals with the limited number of logical approaches you can take (arm drag, over-under, etc) and strings them together into a merciless series of attacks that, when mastered, can lead to a very simple and relaxed takedown game.

Changed my stand up game
Takedowns For The Rest of Us by Michael Heinz
Michael's unique approach to stand up grappling not only resonated with me much more than what I'm normally taught in class but it also changed my stand up game and moved it to the next level. Now I'm not just guessing what I should do, but have a methodical, well thought out approach on what to do in each situation. Highly recommended course.
Very good

Safe, energy efficient takedown that we all need!
Takedowns For The Rest of Us by Michael Heinz
Takedown has been an intimidating part of my jiu jitsu journey as a small female without much athletic background. The risk of injury from heavy throws is a concern for me and the cost of failure is quite substantial as well. I love this course because it offers an approach that reduces the risk of injury, the cost of failure, and is not dependent upon athleticism or strength. I love the concept of sagging and using your body weight to make your opponent move slower. As a small female, going to the back is a great option for me and this course shows how to get to your opponent’s back in an effective and energy efficient way. Really well articulated and well organized course. Easy to follow and implement immediately. Highly recommend!!!

Guard Retention: BJJ Fundamentals - Go Further Faster by John Danaher
I’ve had John Danaher’s videos for a long time. When my technique goes off course, I always refer to his specific videos. I’m not athletic, 65 yr old, two injured knees for 30 years. I’ll never quit jiu jitsu. I’m not as good as other Brown belts and even lower belts but I come back the next day. Danaher teaches what nobody can learn on their own.

Perfect for the Hobbyist (And Everyone Else Too)
Takedowns For The Rest of Us by Michael Heinz
Learning to take people down is hard. Most methods rely on lots of rigorous training and a healthy dose of youth and athleticism. For example, trying to hit single leg take downs (when you're 40) is not going to happen very often. Complicating the issue is that the stand up game is often neglected in most BJJ schools. They assume take downs are just going to happen. But they don't. This course is the solution. It's based on very conservative principles that aim to limit the athleticism and mobility of your opponent, while draining his energy at the same time. It's not just for hobbyists, either. Restricting your opponent (vs simply attacking) is a sound strategy that goes far beyond BJJ and works in multiple domains. It's a system you can use into old age and I highly recommend it.
