I train at a school that’s more no go focused than with the Gi I had heard of Lucas but never seen his matches or tutorials until recently and his style is so versatile that you can adjust or add on to your game
Lots of techniques, some really good chains. His reverse triangle series is so dope. Highly recommend.
Quick and to the point
Awesome video great technique
Very good to start your passing game. Ever since I started watching this, my knee cuts improved considerably. Still a little bit sore with combination of techniques but it takes time
Blue belt honestly has a lot of potential. It’s a good material to learn new things and build on what you have. Recommend watching it a few times over
Great techniques, great course from Lucas Lepri. Highly recommended this course!
It’s a really in depth explanation on how to stay aggressive in sidemount.
great moves to spice up the game
great details
great!
A lot of side control series repeat the same material; Lucas did a great job of bringing a fresh take on a lot of classic controls and submissions. I've had a lot of great success with this series on the mats.
Nice instructionals.
great stuff. old school BJJ made more efficient with Lucas Lepri's modifications.
love it
Nothing revolutionary or fancy, everything perfect with in depth explanations and some twists. What i looked for.
Great details
Effective and helpful techniques
While many of these techniques have been seen for many years, Lucas Lepris details and his own spin on the technique really increases the accuracy of catching your opponent in these submissions. Camera and audio quality are great and as always Lucas Lepris instruction is world class. I own many of Lucas Lepris instructionals and they have all elevated my game. You will not be disappointed in this purchase.
Excellent techniques and detail. Looking forward to adding to my knee on belly game.
Thank you Prof Lucas!! This instructional video has defnitely helped my game. One of these days, I would like to attend a live seminar..OOOSSS
Great techniques indeed. Simple and easy to follow instructions on side cntrl and KOB
This instructional teaches attacks commencing from side control top and knee on belly for the GI. Additionally, two chapters are included that teach how to maintain knee on belly and side control positions. A broad range of submissions (i.e., various chokes, triangles, armbars, monoplata, kimura, opportunistic wristlocks and multiple entries to the back) are included in this instructional with the majority the techniques focused on commencing from side control. Lucas Lepri does utilise the lapel in many of his techniques and I mention this as some people like to use their own or the opponent’s lapel and others not so. Generally, when a technique is taught, options or variations are also taught, often depending on the possible actions of the opponent. Importantly, techniques are taught from a strong position of control and during the application of the technique a focus is on maintaining solid control. Lucas Lepri is a very experienced instructor and successful competitor. His instructions are clear and understandable. He highlights the important little details of each technique. I like that when explaining e.g., where to put a foot, he explains why this must be done in a particular way and the consequence if it is not done as described. Lucas Lepri teaches a pathway and shows that when one way is blocked there is another way to get a submission. Demonstrations are clear and as is the norm these are repeated from different angles to the camera. I like that the instructor and uke are wearing different coloured GIs, as this makes it easier to clearly see the instructor’s limbs. It is an instructional that can be watched multiple times and there is no unnecessary banter. This instructional has a total runtime of 2 hours and 7 minutes. The instructional has been filmed with a fixed camera. I am not sure of what happened with the filming as in Part 1 the quality of the video, including range and sound is very good. For the other three parts the quality of the video, including range and sound declines (e.g., obvious unnecessary camera movement, minor noise from the camera operator and the camera seems to be further from the participants noting the impact on the range and quality of the sound recording). Still Ok, but not as good as Part 1. The technique preview is from Part 4 (i.e., the chapter on side control concepts) so you can confidently judge the quality of the video and sound. In summary, this is a good instructional to purchase if you are wishing to improve your submission techniques commencing from either side control or knee on belly. I think it is good that techniques are taught in a setting where control is the key focus and acknowledging that the opponent may block a particular path, so you need to be able to change direction to reach your goal.
I like Luca Lepri very Much and I like his lessons. I'm sure to buy another videos
