• Mastering the Butterfly Guard

  Marcelo’s approach to the Butterfly guard is second to none and is one of the reasons that his game translates so well across Gi or No Gi, as well as against bigger, stronger and heavier opponents! Marcelo breaks down the butterfly guard like never before and gives you insights into his mindset and strategy when playing the position. Highly recommended!

  Marcelo Garcia is the competitor that I do my best to model my game after. He's a very technical player but he also breaks his content down to a level that a white belt can understand.
