thanks to the great teaching or Mister Danaher my escapes did improve a lot
super detail wwwwww
The Best!
I am no longer afraid of taking risks and hunt for Submission. Even I get pinned, I know I can get out. Thanks for that confidence.
If you're wondering where to start on Danaher's dvds, start here. His explanations are top notch, helping you to have a DEEP understanding of the pin. He gives you the goal of being unpinnable by your peers in your gym, and backs it up with an instructional that can actually make that possible
This makes jiu-jitsu so much better
Excellent fundamentals
:fire::fire::fire::100:
This is really important to know, thank you.
so far, I'm really enjoying this content. It's like a one on one instructional with one of the best.
Excellent series that, three years intoi jiujitsu, I keep coming back to for new insights.
Professor Danaher takes you through all the essential escapes to the main pins of Jiu Jitsu and does so in incredible detail. This is one of those series that you will return to countless times and keep learning from. Invest time in this and there won't be a training partner out there who can keep you pinned. The Turtle sections are also phenomenal. As a position that isn't often trained, it'll give you the confidence to use it more often, which works well when you move on to the GFF Guard Retention series.
Great overview of pin escapes
Great instructional with tons of details. My game improved instantly after watching this.
always a home run with JD
Listen to what John Danaher has to say.
This is a great video on how to get better at escapes
The storage on my computer is over 200 gigabytes full of John Danaher lessons and I'm about to buy a 1 terabyte portable external hard drive to store the rest.
Excellent instructional from Danaher with great insight into escapes
Solid
Exactly what I was looking for.
Love John's training
Danaher keeps it simple with the 3x3 method, which makes you dangerous from anywhere. I am able to chain the attacks, and my submission rate while rolling is up. The sliding collar choke details and back attack system make you confident to attack on the back. Includes a turtle breakdown that goes hand in hand with back attacks. Highly recommended!
Everything you need to know to escape the standard pins of jiu-jitsu, this will teach you how to survive and improve position and get you back in the fight
Detailed, informative and good context
Hhh
Definitely should have gotten this sooner and started watching it sooner!
Saw instant results when applying these techniques. I would highly reccomend this instructional.
This instructional is essential for any Jiu Jitsu player at any level! Defense, including pin escapes are necessary to form a solid foundation in Jiu Jitsu and John Danaher delivers by providing a massive amount of detail on every escape.
Excellent instructional on pin escapes with all the depth you'd expect from John Danaher. Essential material for those early in their jiu jitsu journey.
So much detail in this. An absolute classic and a must for every BJJ student. Essential material.
Excellent escape instructions for all the major pin positions. All the concepts were very helpful, as were all the intricate details about all the body movements and escapes. Super helpful, especially for white belts, but I'm sure there are a lot of practical details for color belts as well.
as a white belt, john danahers coaching material is a great foundation
Pin Escapes & Turtle Escapes is a gem! John Danaher's teaching style makes complex concepts easy to understand. It's an invaluable resource for beginners and experienced practitioners alike. Elevate your game with this digital treasure trove!
This is like an instruction manual. Great content... it's like learning to walk
Informative for all belt levels fantastic advice and details
Great information! It feels good being confident in your defense. Thanks again!
I bought this when I was still an early white belt and drilled/practiced the concepts and techniques and still do at blue belt, it’s an incredibly empowering feeling to know no one at your same technical level or even above yours a lot of the time is going to be able to hold you down and pin you for an extended period and that you will eventually escape!
This instructional is brilliant as it focuses Danaher's unrivaled understanding of jiu jitsu and his gift for teaching on one of the most important bjj subjects. Escapes! Don't get stuck on the bottom. Don't be afraid of getting reversed. Use this instructional to become skilled at escaping, and relaxed when on the bottom. Take control.
Great content.
It’s Danaher. Not much more to say other than he’s on a whole other level.
Very useful info
Un dvd de plus dans ma collection de john Danaher grâce à ses instructions mon jeu a beaucoup évolué. Je recommande ces DVD à tout ceux qui souhaitent progresser.
John gives great details for breaking down escapes and goals from each pin
escapes are fundamental to jiu jitsu and danaher is a master of teaching the techniques and the conceptual framework.
Very helpful to understand the fundamentals and mechanics. Vital knowledge for a newbie
great
Not the glorious submissions this time! Escapes!! Put in the work for a complete game and as always Danaher breaks it down as only he does!
very clear and detailed. Danaher approach is the best
Like in all his instructionals the way john unpacks everything and points out the important things means you hear his voice in your head as you roll !
