Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:First class instruction as always from John
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 !
Response from BJJ Fanaticshaha :hugging:Wish I had this years earlier
I would definitely recommend this video to anyone. The technical breakdown is awesome and I learned a lot of details on basic moves that I had overlooked for years!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Very informative
The detail in this video us great
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Great introduction
Danaher hits all the major escapes in gi and as always does a great job of conceptually explaining the objectives
It is THE Foundation of the jiu jitsu escaping system
Professor John Danaher did another outstading job of categorizing and stystematizing the whole escaping system of jiu jitsu lead by overall concepts. First he is explaining how effective pins work and what they have to have to work properly. Then he shows an step by step manual in terms of how you should regain the dominance over your own head, limbs and body in terms of reversing, disconnecting or reconnectiong and engaging on your own terms. He highlights all necessary movements and points out all important mechanical details which make it eventually possible to reverse or escape. The greatest benefit for me beside all this given facts was the insight into how to connect properly on one edge to be ale to disconnect on another to increase mechanical force and eventually hit the move. AN ABSOLUTE MUST HAVE FOR EVERY JIU JITSU PRACTITIONER!!!
Fantastic as always
Great instructional
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Life changing!
I've trained for just around 2 years on and off. I learned a lot of what I know through YouTube and from more senior students. My professor did not go through anywhere near the detail shared in this series. I never even learn about insertion points when recovering guard! I was that student trying to recover from side control and getting my knee jammed into their thighs and knees. I hated the hip escape because it felt so useless against skilled opponents. That's so much explained that makes so much sense here. I wish I had these videos when I started. John really makes you feel like he cares about your success. The pin escape videos are second to NONE.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Great video lots of helpful
Great video lots of helpful tips and important details to help with improving escapes
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:essential viewing to build your jiu-jitsu base
This video will teach you everything you need to know, to build your defensive foundation in jiu-jitsu
Worth every penny
this dvd will give you all the information you need to lay a foundation for your bjj game
It so worth the investment
It so worth the investment the insight John has as a teacher is amazing
Finally I am not afraid of getting pinned anymore
I was always afraid of getting pinned (I am 100kg weight class). Every time I got pinned I started to panick and do random moves to get out. This video helped me to develop a planned approach on analysing the situation and adapting my escape to the situation. I improved my escape skills a lot. I am not afraid to get into such positions anymore.
Response from BJJ FanaticsNice! :hugging:Amazing
The amount of detail in this instructional is amazing, worth every penny/cent, this will change your game!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:원리중심
목소리가 너무 졸리긴 한데 참고 볼만 합니다. 이스케입실력이 늘면 좋겠네요.
Perfect Foundation Builder
Danaher himself has said learning pin escapes and surviving on the mats should be every beginner's focus. As with most things his philosophy is sound. be able to escape anything and you a can be as aggressive as you want without the fear of getting yourself into a scenario you can't get out of. His heuristic principles as opposed to rote memorization for each pin scenario has proven effective for my game. One of my best investments in terms of instructionals.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great instructional
This is the first instructional I purchased on BJJ Fanatics, and I have been impressed by the level of details John Danaher goes into. After a couple of years, I still watch it in order to study some details.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Love it
I love this instructional, johns systematic approach to pin escapes absolutely changed the way I saw escapes, I highly recommend this
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Good stuff!
Incredibly happy with my purchase. Have already managed to frustrate some of my partners during training. Would recommend!
