The reviews
a new look at half guard
To be honest I want to be good at half guard so I have looked at a lot of half guard videos from a lot of teachers. This one has some interesting ideas that I have also seen with my other videos, like coyote guard sweep.
Good explanation of modern conditions for classic half guard
I enjoyed this one. He does a great job of explaining modern contexts and reactions for a classic style of half guard play. His solutions and modifications for the modern contexts are well thought out and interesting.
Excelente curso...um ótimo upgrade pra quem ja joga de meia guarda

Effective sweeps and back takes from half guard.
Good positions out of the SL half guard
He delivers what he promises. New positions out of an old game, single leg half guard. We haven't seen a lot on the subject for a while, so it's definitely worthy watching.
