great
If you're on the fence, don't hesitate. Shawn Williams is one of the absolute best coaches out there, and his teaching style is exceptional.
Aside from Williams guard, there's a lot of detail related to submissions, including omoplata and triangles. I like the content on reverse kimura as well. There's a ton of content, that requires time to go through. It's a similar teaching style to that of John Danaher.
I really like the overall details and techniques in this review, I find Williams Guard as an old man's rubber guard. Good for lots and fun to learn.
Williams Guard
Shawn is good teacher a d worth listening too.
good
I love using this guard from all over the place. Who better to learn it from than the guy who created it? Very informative instructional.
Excellent detail and plenty of content
I love working on these new subs from Williams with the ability to go back to closed guard if I need too.
Great instructional. I like to play the Williams guard. Most of my opponents don't have experiences with it.
I like the real roll application of this instructional. No stone left unturned IMO.
Having tried many different systems of closed guard I still find this one to be the best. Creating angles, moving your hips and controlling posture are paramount from bottom and Shawn Williams is a master at teaching these concepts. This is fundamental jiujitsu that will never go out of style. Great for older practitioners too as this requires less flexibility than other types of guard such as rubber guard.
The williams guard by the man himself. Very complete and technical.
Great Video, easy to understand from one of the best to ever do it
Great instructional video. Very detailed.
Very informative, the explanation are easy to understand. would definitely recommend this for anyone.
This video is such a value. Shawn goes through Williams guard and the varying positions surrounding it. Half the techniques he does in the end of the video should be part of the standard game. He gives great details for offense and defense for everything he covers.
Lot of years ago i studied the gi dvd. The system evolved a lot, now is amazing.
This is an interesting position that I wanted to learn more about. The instructional is very lengthly (8 hours), but you will walk away with immense knowlege about the Williams Guard and find ways you can add it to your game. I highly recommend this for anyone looking to add a bit more to their closed guard game.
Very good instructional. Worth the money.
Instructor went over some basic Williams guard in class. Saw this on sale and immediately hopped in. Been able to integrate Williams guard into a ton of rolls with equal and higher skilled training partners with great success.
very detailed.
Really great techniques taught very clearly and concisely..
I started plating around with Williams Guard after watching a video on it. When this popped up on daily deals I had to get it. Very clear instruction. Nothing like learning from the guy who created it. Awesome.
Shawn Williams shows great instruction in this dvd. The way he shows this guard you don't need much flexibility. He is an excellent teacher and also shares some incredible insights as to why he does things a certain way.
Shawn Williams is the man. Great instructionals, great at breaking the theory down behind techniques with easy key words that stay in you’re mind
Shawn Williams is an excellent instructor, the instructional is full of great details.
Excellent!
A great instructional, clearly articulated to make your BJJ game unstoppable!
great
This is such a game changing position
Awesome insights on a great close guard variation. Mr Shawn Williams really takes care to go over all the details from how to get to the guard and how to make submissions work in this series. He definetly became one of my favorite instructors.
Great instructional. Omoplata from Williams guard is my new favorite move now.
An absolute must if you play guard in no gi
The Williams Guard is one of the best ways to play Full Guard and merges perfectly with Rubber Guard if you're a fan of it, and Shawn teaches it in a way that makes you understand all little details and aspects of it in an instant. It's well structured, easy to follow and full of valuable details. It covers all aspects from top to bottom; basics, gripfights, setups, transitions, subimissions. Worth every penny.
A very detailed breakdown on a guard even us youthfully challenged guys with less flexibility can use.
Bought this video due to curiosity. I am really surprised at the level of details Shawn Williams have developed for his system.
These series suprised me a lot. In positive way of course. Shawn presents the concepts and explains in detail how to get to the domination and subs from bottom of the closed guard. What I like most is the breakdown of the small steps that needs to be make to get to the specific position. Also, he explains what to do in side scenarios, offering example attack/counter. I recommend this video to the low and high lewel belts in order to develop the broad bottom close guard game.
Very extensive instructional. Lots of detail. Not my very favorite, but solid.
I have only watched the first couple of volumes and already learned a lot.
Make your guard better! This is a great option to do that! Always looks slick and will land you on a highlight reel with finish options from here. Check it out!
Shawn explains everything in great detail allowing you to employ this guard from day one! Watch it and take it to open mat and enjoy the results.
Very nice teaching methodology, well explained. A very powerfull guard, for average flexible people with more “realistic” applicability.
Really love the control this guard gives me. There are a ton of submissions from this position and they just flow together.
Great details great instructional
Great info, lots of detail.
Very solid instructional! This is my high guard of choice. Please do yourself a favor and pick it up. Its great for normal price but a no-brainer if caught on sale!
goes into good detail on how to own this position
great product - details have really helped by guard game. Details on the no gi omplata have really helped
