Easy to follow, laid out really well
Amazing
very complete course of the half butterfly. I use the position all the time and this was very useful! thank you!
Aaron is a gifted teacher and has made an excellent course on the subject.
Great content, like all of Aaron’s instructionals. It is mostly geared towards GI but he does include some details for certain techniques for no-GI

nice stuff some helpful hints
It was very helpful
Aaron does a great job teaching half butterfly. Easy to use
A complete system for the half butterfly
I picked up the instructional because I am older and like to play half guard, and wanted an alternative to the knee lever when I screw up and get smashed underneath. The half butterfly is another option for those situations, and I found this instructional to be well organized and a comprehensive resource on the topic. I also thought Mr. Benzrihem is an excellent, well-spoken young instructor and I hope he puts out more instructionals in the future. Highly recommend for those wanting to learn about half butterfly position
I really need to add more of this to my game, so good once you understand the concepts
If you're looking to start exploring this guard, this is a hidden gem. Aaron's instructionals are well explained, very complete, and very reasonable. Definitely worth a look.
has some nice moves in here
Aaron is a great teacher and explains complex concepts in an easy to grasp way.

Great from beginner to advanced. I was a rookie in this position and I found it helped to advance me through the stages of this guard.
I'm glad that I have found the butterfly half guard. I feel most comfortable in this type of guard and this instructional covers almost everything you would ever want.
I love Aaron's teaching style. So much detail on control, sweeps, submissions and transitions to other positions.
This is a perfect add on to your half guard game. I utilise this on a daily basis
after all these years of half guard, finally started to use the half butterfly. great for the smaller guy.
great concise instructions
Aaron covers a bunch of half butterfly scenarios in depth
