It is good to go over basics quickly
Bernardo Faria is a detailed and easy to follow. Highly recomended
I have been only traing for 1 month. These Instructionals are helping me understand much better. They go into great detail of each move. Thank you!
I cannot train at a gym now, but love all these courses from Bjjfanatics.com... Top notch! Thank you!
excellent
As a black belt, I still go back and watch this instructional to help me with my game!
I've been watching this since I started BJJ. I always catch something new. Great to have on head at any level.
Clear, and easy to follow. This curriculum cover most of what fundamentals is all about, 100% recommended.
After returning from a long layoff of BJJ I found this instructional very helpful to refresh fundamental techniques.
I go back to this instructional on a weekly basis to keep reviewing the basics. Love it
Everything you need to learn about the fundamentals of bjj in one instructional
This is a fantastic foundational BJJ insructional from Bernardo Faria. There is something here for anyone at any level when you consider the depth of instruction. This is one of my main go-to instructionals!
The fundamental technique demonstrations and instructions are easy to understand and follow, with all the detail you need to implement them in class. I've tried a few after watching the videos then had the same technique taught in class and it makes it a lot easier to pick up and try in sparring. What's really underrated is all the 'why' of jiu jitsu that is included. You get a broader picture of what makes certain techniques work in certain situations, and what the goal of any given type of move (i.e. sweeps, take downs, etc.) is and where it should be implemented. Overall I'd highly recommend for anyone beginning their jiu jitsu journey.
Great technique and information! Very easy to get into my game! Love Bernardos style!
Bernardo's instructional will take you until purple to master. Anyone thinking this is only for beginners is delusional. If you practice this instructional from start to finish, you will have a complete game and will surpass any blue or purple belt anywhere. Just ask your local purple if he knows everything showed here.
Great video. Good instruction and week paced.
excellent
love this video set, really breaks things down for me
Bernardo's instructions are very clear and consider. I would highly recommend this to anyone (not just beginners).
Awsome instruction
Halfway trough it and i can already say that i’m going to revisit this tutorial a lot. My favorite part was the sweeps. Can easily be applied to no gi using your common sens
Loaded video
Great course especially at my level, can't wait to try these techniques on the Matt
Excellent content, I think Fundaments are Key for a good development, so this intructional works for beginers and advanced as well.
WOW, basic but very imprtant. I'm very happy and I hope it will help me win the next competition
