good a little niche
Great - unorthodox hard-to-stop sweeps and submission sequences.
I really liked this course. It's short, to the point, and yet the insights are really valuable. It's a type of trap guard system, similar to the rubber guard among others. I think this one is easier to learn and maybe even more controlling.
I've seen incomplete variations of this guard through the years. I've never seen it so well explained and as with as many options as Bjorn presents. This is a very cool guard. I purchased this course and his advanced one as well. I think I'm going to enjoy integrating these into my game. Thank you for the great material!!
Thank for Effective and helpful instructions
It's easy to use techniques that the opponent doesn't know. This video is full of unique techniques.
This video is my first exposure to Bjorn Friedrich's instructional series. I picked it up on the daily deals and have been pleasantly surprised by the level of ease and control one can apply his guard system with. As someone who's never been great at guillotines and is also fascinated by trap-guard systems (i.e. Williams guard and Neil Melanson's CACC stuff) I found this to be quite interesting. The video isn't very long, but Bjorn shares a lot of details on applying the guillotine itself, as well as breaking down posture and controlling people inside the guard, different pathways to get there and also a couple of leglock entries. I do plan to get part 2 of this at some point.
I was surprised how pragmatic the techniques are and how well they can be implemented in Sparring. It changed my way of bjj. Really good Video and a good step by step introduction to understand the Guillotine guard. I will be looking forward of more techniques by Björn Friedrich.
The Guillotine Guard by Björn Friedrich is fantastic stuff of an outstanding teacher and instructor. Absolute recommendation!
this is my third investment in björn. i like his very detailed instructions. i am happy to see a instructor, who will show step by step what i must do for new skills. I hope this ist not the last product.
