Battle Tested Half Guard and Pressure Passing
Studying these two courses have been a game changer for me on the mats. It's very systematized and the bottom and top games flow together. My guard passing percentage rate has exponentially increased with this system.

A great course
This was a great addition to my game. As a half guard player I found a lot of great techniques and concepts that have helped level up my game really well, particularly his single leg and deep half and back and forth entry
Amazing
In my opinion, this is the best course on the gi half guard that I've come across.
This is excellent - as
This is excellent - as I knew it would be. But it would have been even better if Bernardo had explained the Z guard to start with, and shown how to finish off the folding pass with a submission.

Response from BJJ Fanatics🤗The Battel Tested Half Guard by Bernardo Faria
Great instructional for half guard, especially for jiu jitsu competitors who are a bit older. I've been using the techniques from this instructional for years. Bernardo's techniques are straightforward, easy to follow, and don't require a great deal of athleticism. Great fundamental concepts for half guard to give you a solid foundation of the position.
