amazing tutorial
if you wanna lean how to submit your opponet or just stay safe in side control this is the right instructional for you
GREAT SIDE CONTROL SERIES
Bernardo Faria always makes great instructionals, and this is one of my favorites!!!
If side control mastery is part of your game, you CAN NOT miss this!
Just started watching Side Control Setups by Professor Faria - I just wish I lived close to his gym, so I could be trained by him live and in the flesh. My game is about side control, and this is going to take me to the next level! Thanks, Professor!!
super effective and useful
Was able to apply some of these principles the same day purchased. Highly recommended.
Side control - techniques
Well worth it - the gi chokes and passing the mount defence have really helped. Game changer.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗This Helped
I have been using the techniques I learned in this video for a couple of years now. I feel confident in side control and find myself looking for the position with all my oponents, regardless of their size. I highly recommend this series.
bernardo faria side control
awesome! love this one
Lots of great submissions
Bought this a few years ago. I come back to it every now and then to review and remember forgotten details. Definitely an instructional one can keep coming back to.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗🤙🏻Great info
The first volume of this instructional is a must for anyone struggling to maintain side control. I had to eventually stop using the scarf choke, as it was working too well and stalling out my development. Highly recommend!

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great info. Easy to understand.
Great info. Easy to understand.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Great video for beginners
This video is very helpful. As a brand new white belt, I was able to able to hit the scarf choke many times after watching the video. Bernardo breaks down each submission and emphasizes the subtle details you need to focus on the make the technique work. I recommend watching the video of the move you want to try 3-4 times and visualizing it before trying on the mat.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Bernardo is the man!
Bernardo is the man!
Response from BJJ Fanatics👍🏻🤗Side control vid
Side control is my favorite position. But I keep doing the same moves from there and my game is stale and predictable. I love this video, he shows many moves in expert detail from side control, can't wait to try them at open mat, thank you Bernardo!!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Awesome battle tested techniques
Awesome battle tested techniques
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗Worth every Penny
Huge honor for me to write this review :) !! I have a pretty good pass but my game all falls apart after I pass. However, this video has taught me what to do to KEEP SIDE CONTROL and how to SUBMIT my opponent. The first DVD is so worth the $77. I would recommend you get this video if you have a good pass and feel lost in side control. Bernardo does a good job in demonstrating and easy to understand!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Awesome
Thank you Bernardo and Kyle for the excellent videos, very helpful in sharpening me up over the break. I will continue to explore them.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻side control setups & submissions
Another great instructional from Bernardo. Great content and always great details and discussion. Can't wait to try it all out again. Thanks for all your support for the grappling community.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Excellent analysis of Side Control
This is a very good series in techniques to use from and with Side Control. I really like that there are low risk options where you can still retain good position, and more high risk ones if you like to be aggressive. As always Bernardo explains things clearly and simply and it's easy to understand. Very enjoyable!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Nice level of detail
Really good for those looking to expand their side control and knee on belly options along with how to retain the position. No nonsense simple techniques that don't require the athelticism of a 20 year old gymnast.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great
Great
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Excellent detail
First of all, thanks for the support in these difficult times. I didn’t pay for this, but the content is indeed priceless. Can’t wait to try it out live!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻super. priceless.
it is an honour for me to be your online student. the bjj world is very lucky to have you.
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Phenomenal product
This instructional is well broken down and has enough content to make it perfect. It has changed the way I attack from cross side
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Great Class!
Bernardo's teaching style works very well for me personally. He describes the how and why, does the technique a couple times then moves on. 5 stars for teaching style and content!!
Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗👍🏻Small pieces change your game
My perspective on training dvds is this: take tiny pieces and add them together for big changes. I bought this video and watched half of the first disc. The way Bernardo has you add pressure on side guard totally immobilized my opponent. The guy I was rolling with outweighs me by ten pounds and he has a little edge on me strength wise and he’s about 15 years younger. I was crushing him with this. I haven’t had a chance to try the first arm bar from six guard, but that will happen this week!
Response from BJJ FanaticsThat's awesome. Keep going the hard work OSSSSo far so GOOD!
I am learning alot from Prof. Bernardo Faria and am already on VOLUME 4!
Response from BJJ FanaticsCool! Wishing all the best on your BJJ journey.
