John Danaher does it again
John Danaher is one of the best coaches I have found online. However, I should add he is not for everyone. Danaher can have long drawn out (but very detailed) explanations for everything. If you thrive with information overload I highly recommend John Danaher. This instuctional changed the way I warm up in calss.

Some times we can't make it to train, or maybe you would like to drill at home but don't have a partner ( like me ). Then this is for you.

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Excellent
What shadow boxing and bag work is to striking, this is to grappling. Great as a workout, warm up etc but still an opportunity to sharpen technique
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great product for solo training
Great material for times in which one needs to train alone. Well explained and good examples that show where an exercise can be used in a sparring situation.

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:My guard retention improved.
I bought Prof. John Danaher's instruction for guard retention. He partly explains the concept behind guard retention likewise in this video. Highly recommend.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Perfect training video from a master
Danaher is a household name for the BJJ community. It’s amazing that this video is free. Thank you.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Great starting point for new practitioners
I wrestled for 13 years prior to starting jiu jitsu, so while I had some awareness and competence grappling a lot of the more basic movements and positions of jiu jitsu were new to me and were an adjustment. This video was a HUGE help for me going into my first few classes, not the least for making me feel more comfortable going through the warmup routines. This is definitely more than that though, John Danaher does a great job explaining why we bother doing these movements. What's the point of shrimping? When would I need to hip heist? He explains all of this so when you are just drilling on your own, which in my mind does make the drills more meaningful. There really is no downside to watching this, especially if you're just starting.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Get it Fast!
John is basically and amazing coach. The opportunity to get this article for free is just for everyone to get a small dosis of how good he is by explaining.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Awesome
Great stuff. Absolutely worth it.
