Really good instructional. Brian Glick explains leg entanglements in a simple and easy-to-understand way. Definitely worth watching.
Great series really learned a lot and was able to teach all of it in class
excellent details on leg entanglements
Everything Brian does is amazing
Fantastic detail in several leg entanglements
This guide is very well prepared and structured to comprehensively teach the specific topic of setting up leg attacks from guard positions. It is very clear that Brain Glick has a mastery of the subject matter, and has planned this video out to efficiently and effectively teach that topic. If you are interested in learning how to win the leg entanglement battle (how to defend leg locks, win the 50/50, or how to effectively leg pummel from a defensive leg entanglement to an offensive one), this particular instructional isn't going to give you those answers. However, if you want a solid foundation in attacking leg locks, starting from the guard and ending in the various ashi positions, then this is an excellent guide for you. One thing I do wish is that Japanese terms would have been defined as they were used. I was able to pick up most of them through context, but sometimes that context came quite a bit later. Overall, I was very happy with this series. I learned a lot about using leg entanglements to help with my guard retention. I will definitely revisit this series when I'm a brown belt and more of these techniques are applicable to my competitions.
Brian Glick has been a training partner to Gordon Ryan for a reason. The next best thing to John Danaher.
I love everything about Brian Glick does. His videos are always clear to follow. Gives good insight to for smaller guys.
After stuggling with leg entanglments for years, this instructional really made leg entanglements click for me. Since absorbing this material into my game I have become imfamous for my straight ankle locks.
Very Good. Illustrates individual leg attacks De La Riva, outside De La Riva, X Guard. Reverse X Guard, K Guard for sweeping control and leg submissions. Recommended
Great course to get to a good level of leg locking
An in-depth look at leg entanglements drills and techniques to up your game.
Great details
Prof Glick manages to differentiate himself from the numerous leg lock instructional, as well as provide distance between himself and Danaher/Gordon et al. The content is fresh, and his smaller size does not bleed into his game. He relies on strong principles that work well for any weight class, and I used many of his teachings as the cornerstone for a leg lock curriculum. well done. Interactions with Placido are also entertaining, they are a great pair!
Fantastic conclusion to the Under Pressure series. From the engagement face to the submission or sweep. If you are smaller and older grappler it’s hard to do better than Brian Glick’s interpretation of the DDS game.
Very good.
very comprehensive. will compliment other Leglocks videos you may have or purchase. lots of essential information. highly recommended.
great works!
A very clear and easy to understand explanation. Thank you, Brian!
Wonderful introduction into the leg games
My leg lock game leveled up watching this.
Mr Glick shows excellent details that can be applied to your game immediately. This instructional works really well with the New Wave and Enter the System instructionals from Mr Danaher. the details Mr Glick shows really helped make things click for me when combined with the other instructionals.
Very good. Brian puts out quality instructionals. Covers several guard positions and all the key leg entanglements.
Professor Glick has a very unique way of delivering the DDS material. All of the Information in this video was extremely helpful for me in the sense that the details he shares really link to my personal game
good
Good stuff!
Good stuff!
Lots of great details and techniques, easy to apply. Recommend to everyone, who wants to be good at leglocks
Brian does a great job giving an overwiev that you can easily use
I'm a reluctant leg locker but glad i took a chance on this, Brian is a really good teacher. Detailed and technical analysis without being boring.
Waiting for a Sweeps & Reversals instructional that would cover and connect Leg Entanglements, Butterfly, Butter 1/2 and Half, Full and Scissor
Never heard of Brian, been really entrenched in ashi garami, this is perfect if you have an open game. Really think this is a hidden or maybe no so hiidden gem
Glick has great perspective on how to use leg entanglements from bottom for purposes beyond merely leg locking people. Glad I have this in my library
great details on leg attacks
outstanding breakdowns, clear logic given for how different Open guards can be used to attack
Is this the real stuff? Is this just fantasy? Caught in a landslide garami, no escape from reality Open your eyes, look up to the skies and see I'm just a poor boy, I need no sympathy Because I'm easy come, easy go, little high, little low Any way the guy goes doesn't really matter to me, to me Mama, just killed a man Put a gun against his head, pulled my trigger, now he's dead Too late, my time has come Sends shivers down my spine, their bodies are aching all the time Goodbye, everybody, I've got to dispatch you Scaramouche, Scaramouche, will you do the Fandango? Thunderbolt and lightning, very, very frightening me (Galileo) Galileo, (Galileo) Galileo, Galileo Figaro, magnifico Easy come, easy go, will you let me go? Bismillah! No, we will not let you go (let him go) Bismillah! We will not let you go (let him go) Bismillah! We will not let you go (let me go) Will not let you go (let me go) Never, never, never, never let me go No, no, no, no, no, no, no Oh, mamma mia, mamma mia Mamma mia, let me go So you think you can love me and leave me to die? Oh, baby, can't do this to me, baby Just gotta get out, just gotta get right outta here Ooh Ooh, yeah, ooh, yeah
Brian provides a very comprehensive look into the various Leg Entanglements. Brian also strips away the complication behind these potentially tricky moves. Great series, highly recommend it.
Brian does a fantastic job of breaking down each link within the chain of the leg entanglement game...very well done!
Outstanding details, but a great format of presentation. His format of the "executive session" is a great and succinct way of remembering the overall picture of what you're trying to accomplish.
outstanding breakdowns, clear logic given for how different Open guards can be used to attack
Great video. Brian breaks down the concepts down in the video in an easy to understand way.
brillliant stuff. if you want to learn leg entanglements get this.
Brian explains every position and movement perfectly
Leg locks are part of it but there are all the leg entanglements that meet each style of guard passing
As usual, Mr. Glick's ability to delivery top-tier BJJ information in a concise manner is unmatched. This video is a must for understanding leg entangelment setups.
Brian Glick
