Love this series. A lot of people skip over the fundamentals in favor of the latest sport trends. Build solid fundamentals first!
Excellent details to make your chokes and turtle breakdowns work even against resisting opponents.
Unbelievable analysis of all major strangles in the gi. Highly recommend.
Take your strangle game from efficient to hyper efficient.
Don’t sleep on this one… This is a must have instructional from John Danaher for all the GI players!
John Danaher has an amazing skill of optimizing every move he teaches. He turns high percentage moves into higher percentage concepts. Save the money you were going to spend on BJJ seminars and get Danahers instructionals if you care about investing in your BJJ game.
perfect overview of what really works with a high percentage
Professor John Danaher created another amazing instructional of the further faster series. It makes strangles and turtle breakdowns and follow up backtakes really work. It is about body and limb positioning and incorporating your legs whenever possible. He shows hoe to set up with your limbs to act wuth your whole body. He also points out how to get your grips really tight without the need of resetting and creating the risk of loosing the scenario. Highly recommend!!
I used to struggle with the strangles, but not anymore, I really liked how Danaher explains which fingers to use and how when doing a strangle
If your going to make a investment in a instruction this is the one the explanation is clear
Really helped my understand how to use the GI... ...to squeeze the life out of my opponent.
If you are new to BJJ I highly recommend the Go Further Faster series to supplement your gym training. Get the Pin and Turtle escapes video first, then get the half guard video then this one. With just these three you can as a beginner develop a fundamentally sound offensive/defensive system which will serve you extremely well in both training and competition.
What I like about John Danaher is his systematic approach to the various techniques, what makes them more understandable, and the optimal time to use them. They have really improved my performance.
Awesome class and technique! Thanks for sharing amazing techniques and knowledge! His masterpiece class is worth truly more than 5 stars!
great instructional
I learnt in this John Danaher's course a huge sum of -easy to remember- steps to improve strangles efficiency. A good investment!
It is a fundamental piece of data It is a must-see material for beginners and educators. Especially, it is important for people who have weak finish in Turtle.
Very thorough and effective. Highly recommend!
Wish I had this instructional as a white belt, highly recommended also to the coloured belts. Danaher teaching stye is one of a kind. It is not entertaining, but his understanding of the body dynamics and details he point out are astonishing and keep you engaged..
I went from hardly ever landing gi chokes to it being my number one way to finish people. Fascinating details as usual.
Even as an upper belt I had trouble breaking people down if they wanted to stay in turtle, but not anymore. Also learned some important details and set ups for the most effective gi strangles.
Excellent video!
Helped me a lot!
Great details, very thorough and useful for getting your fundamentals in shape for breaking down turtle positions and collar chokes.
Watch this series and you will be taking the back and strangling a lot more people.
