Found a lot of closed guard control and attacks from this instructional which suits me.
Well explained and solid techniques for shorter, older BJJ practioners
Tom puts out fantastic instructional videos. Easily understood and quickly applied techniques and principles. Highly recommend.
Never really touched closed guard in nogi before watching this. And now i seem to find myself from this position quite often and even with some success!
Nice setups and attacks in closed guard. Really liked the triangle option for short legged practicioners or for those with bad knees. Great instruction here from Mr. Deblass.
At my BJJ school (Gracie) combatives are taught first, and a lot of it involves the closed guard. I used to think it was a relatively simple position with limited options, but this instructional has shown me otherwise. Would recommend for anyone.
This should be in every ones library.
An excellent instructional. I have spent most of my training in the gi an have started to train more no gi. This instructional has helped me a lot. I also, have his Butterfly Half Guard instructional, which I highly suggest.
Nice omoplata set ups and nice rolling section
This was very helpful for me, to get my guard game better.:muscle:
TD's instructionals are all so specific and clear. I started with his half-guard domination and it immediately, that same day, proved effective. Very appreciative of this closed-guard instructional. It has the same level of clarity and specificity. Thank you.
instant clairification of what to do n how to do it
there no coner left unturned
Everything is so well organized and explained. DeBlass makes awesome content that's both easy to learn and imcredibly effective.
Lots of good information in this series. I especially liked the secret rib buster move. Others are correct in saying this has something for everyone.
I feel I struggle with guard the most, I’m a top player so I got this to help me with my bottom game, particularly closed guard. Tom is a great teacher and explains the techniques simply and in a way that any skill level would understand. He also has you focus of the fundamental principles that will bring you great success. Recommend!
Wonderful
Easy to understand style. Techniques are solid and easily applicable. You will like this instruction as a beginner or more advanced participant. The philosophy here is nothing fancy. Just simple effective movements.
I've been working on this at home everyday.. it's a complete game changer.... I now have an advantage over most
Tom DeBlass always bringing top notch instruction. Highly recommend!
Great tutorial! Learned alot from it!
Fantastic, Tom DeBlass is a wealth of knowledge, and I love his style of teaching
GREAT VIDEO VERY GOO EASY TO FOLLOW EXPLINATIONS!
Tom DeBlass produces another gem. If you are in the 40 plus crowd I cannot recommend Tom’s instructional strongly enough. You do not need super strength, flexibility or mobility to master these positions. Guaranteed to enhance your game.
Great techniques and easy to understand. This information can be applied to nogi and gi. I will be looking into the other Tom Deblass instructional videos.
