Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Best passing viideo
So far this is the best passing video I have found. Some say Danaher is long-winded but I enjoy both the pace and depth of his lessons. This was my first video from him and I will be picking up more in the future.

Great video that has really helped my game. In depth instructions with great explanation and reasoning.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Professor Danaher, always worth the investment!
Passing the Guard is the third installment I’ve purchased in the GFF series. Professor Danaher’s breakdown of the positional Concepts continue to be what makes his gi instructionals so beneficial. It’s 8hours + of the most often seen passing maneuvers, with the added bonus of his clear-to-understand human mechanics concepts! The videos are high quality. The sounds is clear from every angle and he drills techniques from multiple. I’ll continue buying until i have the whole series I’m sure. What a resource 😀
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻5th Danaher course and loving it
This is my 5th Danaher course and it just blows me away how much I learn from his courses. These courses are a big reason I am still on my jujitsu journey and enjoying it so much.

Great for people who need stuff repeated!!!
My first Danaher video, and I will likely buy another once I have finished this one. It's a lot of information, and many people probably already know the principle stuff, but I needed it explained. He repeats the information a good bit and shows alloves multiple times while explaining, which helps me retain the info well, but I could see how some may not prefer this method. It's the first video session I have been able to implement the information the next day "somewhat" effectively.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻This helped
Like an encyclopedia
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻very detailed
I have to watch them over and over again but starting to not **** at passing guard
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻up my game by 200% in half the Time
I got all the John Dena DVD and it's incredible how it up my game I would say bye two hundred percent in no time. He talks a lot but everything he says is 100% relevant.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Helping me get past guard instead of constantly being stuck.
Since I started working on the video I have been more successful in getting to positions were I can slowly pass with pressure. I am fairly new to BJJ, so prefer a slow step by step system vs speed passing.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Tremendous
Was exactly what I needed to level up
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Learn to pass
Its Danaher you learn how to pass!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Clear, Concise, and precise teaching
Clear, Concise, and precise teaching about passing in the gi. Given me plenty of things to think about and work on to help develop my knowledge and skill in passing in the gi and no gi.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻great tutes
love these tutes
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻passing

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Finishing toreando
Loved the details on how to finish toreando and getting past opponents frames
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻The best part is the seventh!
With the great attention to detail Danaher has bestowed upon in recent years this is nothing less than excellence. The best part for me is the seventh part where he teaches how to "stage" a guard pass. To me, this was a game changer, and if you are interested in improving in a pretty safe way, then look no further than this instructional!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Highly recommended
Easy to follow, well composed material. I highly recommend this as well as his pine escapes course and guard retention!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Complete passing system
Very thorough system, from start to finish. There's almost an overwhelming amount of content and I feel I can revisit the different parts again and again to further my understanding of guard passing.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Intricate and detailed.
Professor Danaher, give a true university type class on gi passing and concepts. Almost all types of guard pass options systematically broken down.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻the basics of jiu-jitsu
Pass is very important in jiu jitsu. The beginning of every position comes from the pass. This video is all the basics of pass. The basics cannot be ignored. So this video is very important. I think it is mandatory for beginners to skilled people to watch.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Surpass the frustration
Guard passing can be one of the more frustrating parts of the sport as a beginner so go to the best instructor in the world so that you can turn this frustration into an enjoyable opportunity to demonstrate your newly developed superiority in your game.
