Amazing details from Lucas. Coming back to this often to refresh my knowledge.
Very good
Everything is really well explained. Explanations are maybe a bit repetitive at times but the techniques are really good. He likes to keep things simple, and his techniques are simple, yet very effective. That's the way I like it too.
Nice
Old School, Simple, and Still Extremely Effective The Coyote Half Guard is a great system because it gives you a clear plan from bottom half guard—get the underhook, control the leg, create the angle, and work toward the dogfight, sweep, or back take instead of just surviving underneath someone. The instructional is a little older and not as polished as some of the newer eight-hour systems, but the techniques have stood the test of time, and for an older grappler like me, using leverage and positioning to move someone beats trying to bench-press them off me every day.
I bought the best guide on the half-guard. I recommend it 100%.

Very good system
Great tutorial. He explains lots of details I haven’t seen before. Also even though we only see gi BJJ on the cover, Leite does explain how the techniques adapt for no-gi and MMA.

This is the best I've seen about half guard.
Quando se vai estudar uma posição específica o melhor caminho é buscar um lutador que seja referência dela.
Very good half guard instructional

Came highly recommended from reddit
Mostly basic, some interesting stuff
5 star
A premium course designed for practitioners of all belt levels.
This has been my favorite video so far. I really like all the details like shifting the pressure or being able to defend myself or even attack from bottom. It make me feel very comfortable and gives me more confidence in the gym. Would recommend and I would definitely buy more of these kinds of videos. Very helpful and very applicable to everyday rolls.
I got this because all the world champions in their videos keep mentioning coyote guard or doing variations of it. So I'm trying to figure it out. I started with Z guard so I'm looking for options. This is not the best organized video ever, but Leite's insights are extremely useful. I swept two people in my gym that have been beating me up for over a year. I tapped a world champion brown belt after sweeping him and a very tough wrestler blue belt who could easily become a world champion imo. Granted nowadays it seems like every gym has 20 world champions. Just saying they're tough, and they could hold me down, and coyote sweeps got me on top. Very useful series, and I still need to improve.
I think it's one of the best series ever produced on half guard, understandable and detailed techniques
great
Awesome Instructional! Half guard is now my best guard because of this!
Brilliant content
Can't go wrong here, foundational instr on half guard.

World class half guard sweeps. This is a must have for older less athletic grapplers.
My favorite instructional. Truly excellent.
Phenomenal easy to understand content.
Overall a must have for half guard obsessive fans
half guard is a challenge if you don't know your options, luckily this video shows the options, what to do, when to wait and when to take off... the uncharted becomes calm water...
Amazing instructional, really helped my game
The details make the difference! The Coyote Half Guard is great for all body types and ages.
