Enter the system is not enough, you must know how to exit the system. Garry is a great teacher that's why I get all his DVDs. Hight reccomed.
This instructional is perfect to refer back to whenever you get caught in a submission and dont know any escapes.
These are easy to understand, follow, and implement in training. With only 6 months of training, I was able to watch this video, go to class, and teach others to use them with high levels of success. I highly recommend it to anyone that wants to learn to survive and break your opponents' offensive cycle. The instructional flows well and Garry is a great coach. I purchased this video just under 4 months ago and my BJJ escapes and understanding of positions has increased substantially. I have watched this video for probably 40 hours and I am still learning/improving on the techniques shown. My gym no longer has a coach (because we are located in a rural area) and I used this instructional to help myself/others learn escapes. The arm triangle escape was used in a MMA match by one of my classmates and he said it was the reason he escaped the position. I frequently get submitted, make a mental note of the submission, look it up on this video, and then teach/train the escape the next time we have class. Thank you Garry and I will most certainly purchase other videos from you!
I love this instructional and already feel so much more confident defending submissions.
Garry has some down to earth simple explanations unlike John, which is not bad, Gary keeps it simple. Overall I would buy any videos that come in the future from Garry. The concepts are like I said very simple and covers the most sumbissions escapes, the techniques and the moves and if that is not covered, you are more than supplied with the ideas and thought experiments to do it yourself alone, like he preaches it.
Great instructional on submissions escapes. Would highly recommend it to everyone!
Has given me much more confidence knowing people have a harder time to submit me. Explanations are very clear and to the point.
It definitely takes a lot of practice and drilling, but let’s just say, I’m called the zombie now in my gym, because it’s so hard to put my down with any submission!
A large amount of content that is surprisingly detailed.
Garry teaches his go-to defense and escapes (an important distinction) in a concise, easy to understand way. I recommend this instructional to anyone looking to improve their defense and cycle back to attacking.
Essential submission escapes
great
Fantastic moves / concepts from a master.
Best submission submission escape video out there. Really appreciated Gary Tonon’s advise on how to drill for this as it requires a specific approach to learning.
Buy this, after watching all 8 chapters I went to train with my head instructor, I got out of all of his attacks perfectly, he was so impressed by me he invited me over to his house for dinner and a movie, he even let me spend the night with his wife, we are going to be moving into a cozy 2 bedroom townhouse together . Thank you Garry
Gary Tonon shows escapes in his quick an straight to the point manner for almost every common submission
Garry is an excellent instructor, as a more defensive grappler, this is what I needed.
Best way to switch things up in late stage defense. I highly recommend this for all levels
Best instruction video for sub escapes. Priceless
Awesome to watch in one go, but also good as a reference for those tough rolling days.
Consise - Immediately applicable - watching as needed and it's working great. I'm not watching start to finish, I started with the submission I get caught in most, immediatley I am escaping more often and in a systematic way. Then as I get caught with things in training, I refer back here and get more help. Only not much on back defenses, if this is your focus perhaps you'd prefer something more back defence specific. 10/10 from me.
This is one of the best BJJ instructionals ive ever seen. Garry is a great teacher , very detailed and easy to follow! Missing out if you dont have this video!
Great Instructional
Very good instructional
Tonon is concise and articulate.
