  probably the best instruction for the guard retention. even for the instructors, there's lot to learn. I'll teach guard to my son, based on this.

• Would 100% recommend buying this early in your journey

  This is hands down the best guard retention instructional available. It’s over 10 hours of content, and it has paid off for me at every stage. I bought it as a white belt and I’m rewatching it now as a purple; its value only grows as your understanding deepens. A truly unpassable, structured guard opens up your entire game, and Ari and Lachlan break everything down with exceptional clarity and detail. The material is usable from Day 1, and you’ll feel the difference in your sparring immediately. I’ve collected 27 instructionals in my BJJ Fanatics library, and this one sits firmly in my Top 3. Lovato’s Top Game Devastation will always have a special place as my first purchase, and Lachlan’s Half Guard and Kimura Anthologies are absolutely worth the investment too.
