I was hesitant to buy this at first because I've watched a lot of free takedown instruction on YouTube and wasn't sure it would be worth it. I ended up grabbing it on a daily deal with my rewards points, and I'm really glad I did. This has already helped my hand fighting, closing the distance, and setting up my single and double legs. There are a lot of concepts here that I hadn't seen before, and everything is taught with grappling in mind, so you're not putting yourself in bad positions like getting guillotined or giving up your back. Takedowns are the weakest part of my game right now, and this instructional has been a huge help. Highly recommend it.

Andre's takedowns are awesome. Learn from Andre is gold. Thanks you.
I love the way as Andre says this is not for wrestling it’s for Jiujitsu
Really good stuff :call_me_hand:
Professor A. G. teaches single and double leg takedowns in a simple way with proper details. He points out the do´s and dont´s when you go for the particular takedown as well as the the danger you have to be aware of when you hunt the takedowns. It´s about entries and finishes startet by eplaining the concepts and concise handfighting. He also shows how to get to the back and finish out of it. Highly recommend
Andre's content has been very helpfull in improving my takedown game. I strongly recommend this for anyone looking to enhance abilities.
It focuses on just a few takedowns, which you can combinate freely and you got many details for resisting opponents.
Andre Galvao is a beast! These takedown techniques are so effective. This course is a must have! Thanks a lot.
I love how easy to digest this was, along with the inner scoop we get from Andre's personal tweaking. Brilliant purchase!
Great teacher and excellent details to finish takedowns. They are normally hard to finish, but the content here will helped any seasoned grappler or beginner.

Andre is a good teacher and explains techniques very simply. Only suggestions is for the price perhaps more could be covered - it is relatively basic in its focus on a single legs and double legs.
Fantastic instructional on takedowns in bjj. Andre has a real talent at distilling the core techniques that can change your game rapidly.
Actually a great instructional. Took a few simple consepts and was able to apply them from stand up in the first weak of purchasing.
As a wrestler, this was helpful for transitioning wrestling skills for grappling.
It was perfect for overcoming takedowns that I'm not good at.
Very helpful
Great instruction and high percentage techniques, just wish video was a little bit higher (720p)
Great instructional by Galvao.
Great series
Great instructions. To embed them, you have to practice practice practice. But these are high percentage techniques.
Excellent work from Andre. Great explanation on techniques.
After testing out a few different instructional from Fanatics, I quickly realized Professor Galvao’s skills and more importantly, his teaching methods are an amazing supplemental to training. I found myself using techniques and philosophies so much that I also signed up for Atosonline membership. Looking forward to more!
Good to learn takedown in grapring. Start from fundamental but the technique is very effective.
Great dvd! Shows you how to enter from the no-contact range with a blast-double then switch to a regular double if and when opponents defends. It also shows how to get single-legs from various clinches and uniquely without a drop-step ( knee on ground) or without having to change stances if they are opposite side forward. Then various ways to finish and how to deal with your opponents defence. A very effective and simple systematic approach!
Phenomenal instruction from Galvao particularly liked the ram and double leg finishes
My favorite lesson so far.
Takes all the guess work out of trying to figure out best moves. This dude's the greatest.
I started doing reliable takedowns after this materials. I drilled accordingly and used them in the past few weeks. Now I can reliably takedown same level belts and people with MMA training. I would say this instructional is scientific and if you need only one instructional for takedown from beginner level to advance, this is the one you are looking for
I love the content on this easy to follow...
I loved it. Well explained techniques
I love the techniques I am learning so far!
I grew up wrestling, so takedowns are a strength for me. However, I noticed that when I rolled against higher belts, I fell into a lot of traps. Galvao's instructional has already helped me to fine tune aspects of my game to avoid guillotines and translate my wrestling to BJJ. Thoroughly recommend!
