• Filthy Grappling Takedowns

  This video is fantastic! At first I was skeptical of such an expensive video from someone who isn't necessarily a wrestler on this subject but it turns out to be the best introduction to the standing aspect of grappling I have ever seen. It is very systematic, if you learn this video you will have a set of techniques and a system to impliment, unlike others that give you a technique and leave it to you to develope a system around peicing together moves. The takedowns are a mix of some fairly standard and some more unique techniques, but all of them are taught in a very good way and I found some of the most value in being taught some things that I already "knew" before since I had a whole new look at them. And also as someone who likes Neils general style and uses his guillotine, guard, side control and cradle systems I like to have a takedown approach that just feels consistent in the same style and approach.

• Top-notch

  I love the connection between the taekdowns and the following (brutal) submissions. So you get both, taekdowns and fitting submissions.

• Improving the Hole in Your BJJ Game

  Most BJJ gyms I’ve been in don’t focus on takedowns so having an 8hr Instructional on takedown set ups and finishes is incredibly necessary. Also as a person who isn’t very athletic, having a lot of body lock options for takedowns is nice.
