• New Lovato's series

  Great instructional . Everything is really well explained. Explanations are maybe a bit repetitive at times but the techniques are really good. He likes to keep things simple, and his techniques are simple, yet very effective. That's the way I like it too.

• Lovato Side Butterfly Guard

  This instructional is rock solid with great options for a powerful guard position. Lovato is a top notch instructor that doesn't waste time with fluff but still gives all the details needed to master the position. The arm across the body is a good control to keep the opponent from crushing you while providing good sweep and submission options. I highly recommend this video series!
