Good
one of the best investments you could ever make worth every penny
Mia is the best
Got this based on the recommendation of my husband. Maia is a good instructor.
VVery thorough look at how to set up or just capitalize on opportunities to get to the most dominant position. Good Explanations.
Such a solid instructional from the most dangerous grappler to step in the octagon
lots of useful back takes
it's a must watch if you want to enhance your back game
Great instructional from a legend in Jiujitsu and mma with good back tacking techniques
Loved all his instructionals, this is not an exemption. Lot of battle proved transitions to the back.
great transitions that work in noGi and MMA
Demian Maia is a amazing teacher. Great instruction
Was wanting to get this backpack series for a while and this instructional was definitely worth it. These are sneaky, creative and battle-tested back transition from MMA that carry into sport BJJ. Demian Maia is an AWESOME instructor and gives very clear directions. There's also some very helpful flowcharts and bullet-point text captions that pop up during the video that give key details for the section or particular transition. Really liked this series overall and I'm looking forward to using these techniques!
Never seen creative transitions to the back, great details, worth every cent
