• Encyclopedic!

  Danaher's knowledge really shines through in this series as the absolute bare bones fundamentals. He opening acknowledges that some of these techniques won't work with higher belts but he argues that these are fundamental moves that help with lower belts and with understanding how to even move to set yourself up for the more advanced moves. Some audience might find his explanations tedious and repetitive. And I will admit that it is not always the most exciting material. But the explanations are in-depth and insightful. I have already implemented some of his techniques into my training and have found them helpful. Definitely a game-changer for me.

• White Belt

  It’s really hard to deny how great this course is for a beginner. Been in too many BJJ schools where they don’t teach this methodology and have you hip escaping up and down the mats for 10 mins. Would highly recommend.

• Solid Fundamentals Instructional

  Although long explanations and theory can be boring for some people, i really like the depth of Danaher`s videos. Defenitely suggested for beginners (white or blute belts), or maybe even higher belts who have a difficult time escaping from pins in general. It is likely that not all techniques will suit you, but you should defenitely practice all of them a bit and then pick maybe 2 for each pin.

• Great Place To Start

  As a white belt just getting started I found this instructional to be a great entry point. It's a good overview of defensive concepts as well as how to escape the most common pins. Very practical for anyone first starting and often finding themselves stuck in a pin without knowing how best to proceed.

  Jon Danaher’s course is exceptionally well-structured and easy to follow. He breaks down complex techniques into clear, logical steps that make sense for both beginners and experienced practitioners.
