• A great comprehensive intro to No-Gi Take Downs.

  This is a great instructional for people who are relatively new to the stand up game. Although I've been doing BJJ for over a decade, I still got a lot out of it because I was mainly a gi player starting from the knees or butt. A.G. covers a variety of no gi judo and wrestling moves that are safe for the bjj game. The instructional is organized in a sensible manner and his competition successes and experience obviously shine through and are a benefit to anyone who watches this. If there is one suggestion that I could make, and it's a minor one, I would suggest that when they film these instructionals, that the instructor and the uke wear obviously different colors, which makes observing the placement of limbs just that much easier. This suggestion could be applied to a few other instructionals I've bought from BJJ Fanatics. Still though, it's a minor production point and it's still a fantastic instructional.

• Great fundamentals instructional, get it if it goes on sale.

  No Gi grappling is is quite a bit different to judo/wrestling/sambo etc. Andre does well by covering self-defense aspect first before moving into techniques that are specific to no gi grappling. Great one to pick up, especially when its on a daily deal etc.

• the learning curve

  Andre is an amazing teacher. he doesn't show you complex and frustrating techniques. he bring you to them, when you are ready. there are more comprehensive "wrestling" instructional on the platform? yes so well explained? I really doubt. worth every penny.

• great for beginners, perhaps not for competitors

  I thought i was buying the other takedown instructional, but i really really ended up liking this one. i began to teach to kids lately, and there are materials here that i can translate to kids class, such as stances, steps, some drills. these parts however would be un interesting to the advanced BJJ players. it's cool that Galvao puts so much emphasis on the self defence aspect also... now that i think of it, my instructors barely taught me self defence stuff. i mostly saw them in books back in the day! so props to Galvao for choosing to show old school self defence stuff.
