Love this instructional because it's a full guard game essentially. It includes variations of half guard as well as sit up guard and reverse de la riva. It also shows how to get to half guard and also includes how to fix 'bad' hg positions.
So much content well worth price
Pair this together with Danaher's New Wave Half Guard instructional. Danaher has more depth, but Lachlan more breadth. With their forces combined, you will be unstoppable. : )
This is awesome. There is so much here, and it's incredible. That being said, I do prefer Danaher's New Wave Half Guard instructional, especially for white belts. However, get both if you can, because Lachlan goes over a LOT. They are great paired together. Between those two instructionals, Danaher has more depth, but Lachlan has more breadth.
Excellent
Complete and precise
Excellent!
Helped me to become much more comfortable in half guard position and gave me the building to blocks to start developing a real game from half guard. I really enjoy the teaching style of the video.
Lachlan is thorough and breaks down techniques in plain language. I only wish some of the formatting was different.
I used to be scared of half guard just because I didn't know what to do... Now I almost prefer half guard :D Lachlan is a great teacher. Probably learned a round 5% of this series so far and gave my game so much.
It was a very satisfying lecture.
very detailed and extensive instructionnal. worth all the penny :)
The instructional is fantastic, very detailed and easy to practice in steps to ensure a complete understanding, I have used this and it has helped me excel in positions I previously felt uncomfortable in.
This half guard encyclopedia is everything you will need to build a great half guard game! The instruction is to the point and very well explained
This is a great instructional. He covers many variations of half guard and the different scenarios that tend to play out in them in great detail. The narrated rolling footage is enormously helpful for putting it together.
Transformed my half guard game! Lachlan Giles is one of the best instructors ever.
Great instructional with an extraordinary amount of detail. Lachlan even tells you the best way to use the video.
This is an insanely great deal for how much information is provided.
Complete guard passing system. Very well done!
Excellent instructional. Lachlan explains the techniques very well and it is easy to understand. Especially appreciate the troubleshoot sections.
Really good and thorough explanation of the half guard bottom position.
Insane levels of detail!
Love the attention to detail.
Something for everyone! This isn’t the normal instructional where it just runs through different techniques. This will pin point where you are having trouble and truly help you improve on the position.
Awesome detail!
Lachlan provides a ton of useful content within this instructional. Very easy to follow and implement.
tons of detail on half guard. Great Leg lock info as well!
Awesome series, Lachlan is very detailed and is easy to understand his techniques. It's separated by position which makes it very convenient to go back and see what to do. Great stuff!
Fantastic instruction covering the ins and outs of half guard. Really helpful to my game
Fantastic details about half guard retention and the many sweeps and attacks that come with it, perfect for anyone trying to deepen their half guard knowledge
Amazing price. Gets into the nitty gritty. The details are fantastic
I have several of BJJFanatics half-guard videos, but this one is my favorite It is more comprehensive, and Lachlan's style of teaching is easy to understand. Be aware that this series even covers some related topics like getting into a single leg and sit-up guard. But back to the half-guard, this is the series that has helped me the most. Get it and you won't regret it.
It helped to not get smashed anymore, when I’m in Half Guard.
It helped me a lot to incorporate Half Guard Position into my game and getting smashed less.
Like most of Lachlan's videos it is very well detailed. Half guard is a very universal game in the sense that anyone of any body type can play it and lachlan covers all bases of half guard in no gi. Should be a must have in everyone's jiu-jitsu library.
Completely opened up a new part of my game
I love how Lachlan teaches. Also now I can expand my knowledge about the half guard. I have just couple of techniques that I do from there
Lachlan Giles is a legend in the BJJ world. His instructional is highly detailed. This is a must watch!
You won´t regret it. Really generous instructional from Lachlan!
you end up in half guard so often as a beginner, this really helped to use this position as an advantage
Worth it
Lachlan delivers detailed, yet concise information that is easy to understand and to the point.
Very detailed explanation. Good value for money considering the hours of content.
Very thorough. Narrated rolls were helpful
This is real professional material. I've been playing half guard for a long time, but the instructional was able to give me countless new things and put my half guard into the system. I think it's worth it and I wholeheartedly recommend it
This is an amazing video with so much content. It's not just half guard, but also lots of leg stuff (I especially like the single leg and modified X guard sections). I have already incorporated these into my game.
Great instruction
Series to watch if you want to know the basic half guard
Tons of great detail and goes through many scenarios !
Amazing instructional about half guard. Everything you need to know about half guard in these videos with perfect explanation. :martial_arts_uniform:
