A deep dive into effective escape techniques (Gi) for side control and mount
Never Get Smashed: Side Control and Mount Escapes by Gregor Gracie
This instructional (volume 1) commences with teaching how to safely position yourself in side control bottom and adopt an appropriate mindset to enable you to remain calm and composed. The primary side control escapes taught in this instructional include: underhook (Gregor’s favourite) and “hip escape” (i.e. moving your near side leg to the opponent underneath the opponent while moving your body approximately 90 degrees to a closed guard). The instructional provides lots of information on how to effectively and reliably gain the underhook. Volume 2 addresses escapes from scarf hold and reverse scarf hold and also provides some additional techniques to escape side control. Volume 3 addresses mount escapes including: identifying the appropriate mindset while being mounted and what needs to be done immediately (e.g. framing, positioning of your body, etc) to remain safe prior to escaping; the “hip escape” (aka a version of the elbow escape, commencing with using you own leg to lift the opponent’s leg to then allow you to move your bottom leg under their leg) is the first technique taught; several chapters address how to respond to the opponent who flattens their foot or crosses their legs to make it difficult to do the previous technique; how to escape the high mount; two techniques to address the technical mount; and the last two chapters teach the upa escape. The total runtime for this instructional is 1 hours and 30 minutes. Within the limitations of a fixed camera there are no notable issues with sound or video quality (e.g., range [a big tick], focus, or lighting). Gregor Gracie effectively teaches side control and mount escapes and discusses his own preferences and refinements to escapes. He discusses that there are two aspects, defensive skills and escaping skills, which are related but separate skills. He stressed the importance of timing and the importance of having solid defensive and escape skills, which together will allow you to remain calm while on the bottom. This instructional teaches a selective number of escape techniques, which is not a bad thing and also the benefit of combining escapes. Gregor Gracie provides the necessary detail to ensure that these escapes will work, if performed correctly, not just on same size opponents, but larger people (e.g. the underhook side control escapes emphasis moving yourself not the opponent). In my opinion, this is an easy instructional to watch and the techniques are effective.

The Pillars of Defense: Pin Escapes - Defensive to Offensive Cycles by Gordon Ryan
must watch--over and over and over
connection is essentially what you think it is
Understanding Connection In Jiu Jitsu by Professor Henry Akins
I'm a bit disappointed with this one, which is a shame because I usually love Henry Akins' instructonals. also as others have said it's very expensive, I think even in a sale it's not entirely worth it. It's essentially how to generate power using your body and the importance of keeping contact intentionally with people, it's nothing ground breaking, and at times can seem a bit BS. I feel like these are things you could work out for yourself. One thing I do like is the B roll elements, as these help you to see that the techniques don't just work because Henry is a lot bigger.

Love the instructional. Surprised Craig Jones has a great mind for the game.
Amazing
Systematically Attacking The Kimura by Gordon Ryan
One of the better instructionals I have seen on kimuras. It is just enough detail to help you hit it from any position and do it without strength. Or it shows you how to use that grip to move around your opponent when you can't finish it. After watching it for a few days straight, I hit it on all of my training partners during rolls.
