Good
As always great details from Master Sauer
Effective techniques for both escaping and preventing bad positions.
Master Pedro Sauer shows once more some very important detail in each one of the positions,
Very good instructional
Master Sauer's mount safety/escape instructional covers a wide range of techniques centered on leverage and efficiency; presentation is bullet-point style with limited details and depth.
A great breakdown of little details.
OG Pedro Sauer stuff is always good to learn!
I took a lot of basic details out of the dvd which helps me to control more the speed

Was struggling a lot with escaping heavy side mounts, but Pedro Sauer’s instructional has changed my game! I’ve seen such an improvement in my side control escapes! I’m finally comfortable being uncomfortable!
