In my opinion the best instructional from the revolutionary "Enter the system" series! My front headlock game was significantly improved and became one of my strengths!
Excellent instructnal for beginners or advanced jiu-jitsu practitioner with plenty of details
This DVD made front headlock the corner stone of my standing/takedown game. It is excellent.
Amazing details here. He really lets poor Placido have it!
Just WOW!! This is true gold!!
Great videos, easy to understand and dope details
Great instructional, the first time in my life I managed to catch a black belt with a submission using these guillotines.
Pretty much everything JD puts out his gold and this is no exception. A full integrated system for the headlock and its principal submission and position game. All top notch stuff
I got this on sale a while back. I have to say this changes the way I attack. You will learn how to chain a Darce to Anaconda and Guiltone's. He tells you what you need for control so you just won't pull the move without theory. This is one of the easy systems in Enter The System.
Learned this during lockdown, it’s decent
John's information is amazing as always Pure shinning gold!
Really enjoyed this one. A masterclass on guillotines, all manner of katagatames and using the position to its best (choke, take the back, sweep). Go High Wrist !
John Danaher is considered the best for a reason. Top level details and explanations.
Amazing instructional! Was able to improve my jiu-jitsu immediately.
Haven't been disappointed with a Danaher instructional yet
This is one of the best instructions I have ever bought. Pure masterpieces!

John Danaher is a great teacher if you can work with his slow and repetitive pacing. He elaboretas the Front Headlock position with all of its aspects
This was the first John Danaher instructional I bought and it exceeded my expectations. Worth every penny!!!
excellent instructional. No nonsense. John Danaher is the first coach I have ever seen apply the scientific method to the sport of jiujitsu. He breaks it down like a PhD dissertation
Excellent, game changing video- full of fine details that now allow me to finish a number of submissions I previously struggled with as well as useful tips on getting to the positions in the first place.
Huge game changer!! I can do things
This instructional with its highly detailed analysis of the front headlock position will exponentially increase the effectiveness of your submissions from that position.
Presents multiple options from the front headlock, both submissions and positional advances. Highly recommend.
Excellent video on a very useful subject. I enjoyed how much detail went into 1 part of the game!
Excellent video!
The knowledge in this instructional is absurdly good. Thank you for sharing your decades of wisdom with us!
all the guillotines and kata gatame's John shows are strong blood strangles. No option for your partner to try and power through a choke. The high wrist position will make your guillotines incredibly strong.
A full front head system. Highlights for me were the high wrist position, various standing snap down, go behinds, control aspects, and seated snap downs. As with the rest of the Enter the System gives key details and best way to do the moves. Worth picking up.
Very odd, for me, to begin with but this will radically improve your guillotines!
Helped my game tons and after just one video I saw huge improvements.
This video gives a great insight into the front headlock.
As always, the master delivers and articulates movements like no other. John Danaher's real gift is his eye for detail and his ability to make the complex relatable. Above all, you learn the "why" to a technique, allowing you to defend it or transfer it to another situation. Excellent!
This wasn't the most influential instructional set on my guillotine game, but it did add some very valuable tools.
This series is an awesome and comprehensive series on front headlocks.
Excellent
Fantastic!!
The Front Headlock System by John Danaher. Use this position to achieve several powerful pinning position, sweeps, takedowns, and it is a position where you can exert minimal strength and energy while maintaining complete control of your opponent.
More focused vs the fundamentals but JD delivers again.
Changed the game for set ups for guillotines
Danaher is the best.
John Danaher reduces the complexity of moves and techniques by giving you guiding principles which he teaches very well. I can recommend any instructional på Danaher.
As per usual wirh Danaher his teaching is ground breaking, no one else compares. Buy it, it's a no brainer.
Really enjoy his video's
Detailed information, improved my front headlock/guillotine exponentially
As usual, a wonderfully detailed instructional. The positions covered are completely in depth with a variety of scenarios covered and the finer details of the guillotines are tremendous. D’arce chokes and and Anaconda chokes are also covered as well as a variety of entries into the guillotine - both proactive and reactive. The Triangle system will no doubt be what I follow up with but for the moment this is an awesome system to add to my game.
Good stuff
Once again Professor Danaher blows my mind with the amount of detail he shows in this series. These details have already made a huge difference in my game. Do yourself a favor and get this series. You will be choking people out at a much higher frequency in a short time.
I am a huge fan of John Danaher’s videos. He has a way of explaining detailed techniques and making it so it’s easy to implement into my game. Whenever I’m learning a new technique I always look to him first.
excellent
