Fantastic tips, tricks and technique, delivered with great style as always with Bernardo Faria
Bernardo is a world class jiu jitsu practicioner, and also a world class instructor. His detailed instruction allowed me to take my favorite game to a new level almost instantly. He touched on several key areas I had been struggling with, and even specifically mentioned one issue that had been troubling me for over two years ( the knee cut pass). If you play half guard, you need to see this!!!!
Great instructional video for those who love to play half guard. Moves are broken down clearly. Once this virus subsided, I cannot wait to try these techniques.
This instructional was very well thought out and worked through specific positions in a chronological order.
Gave me a deeper understanding of half guard
