Useful stuff. Even implementing some of the basics of what Priit shows, like correct head position and staying on live toes, has made my turtle much tougher for my rolling partners to try to break down.
The escapes with creating distance and pulling guard from the turtle with a granby is something I added to my game right away
This is a great comprehensive look at turtle. Keep those pesky upper belts from submitting you and throw them for a loop. This is a great and well laid out watch. Easy to follow and implement to up your game immediately.
Really enjoyed this one from a defensive perspective. Priit gives you a basic posture, reinforces it through a bunch of different scenarios, and then adds a few tricks here and there. As someone who loves to take a posture or concept and just work it out on my own, this was a great, simplistic view of his turtle formula. One thing I'm not sure about is that "offense" is in the title, but everything shown was reactive, and almost entirely defensive.
Premier système de défense en judo. Fantastiques améliorations qui ferment les failles de cette défense. Premier élément d'un système de défense à compléter avec running man et baby bridge pour un judoka. Ces positions sont des lieux où il est possible de se reposer et de respirer en toute sécurité avant de contre attaquer.

Good intro to turtle defence including turtle posture with elbows in, neck shoulders shrugged “neck less neck” or “invisible neck”, seal feet vs feet on the mat, good base with knees, dealing with hooks, beating the harness/seatbelt and running man concepts

Very good building block for defensive turtle, I wish if you added few subs attacks like kimura or other locks. Thank you
great structure to work from. effective against bb's and larger opponents right from day one, although i started using it at purple belt.
As always Priit delivers top notch information
great details
Classic Priit stuff that is great and useful but less about creating offense and more about how to defend certain attacks.
great defense
Another great instructional by Priit Mihkelson. I got very high level defense thanks to him and big part of it is turtle by him and Eduardo Telles.
Very good staff!!
This is an often under taught position. I’m glad there’s someone who has enough knowledge of this position to give a quality instructional.
It's must watch if you want to enhance your turtle game.
Priit has different approch to bjj overall. So this makes your defence definetly better. Need practising thou.
This guy has the best turtle defense that I've ever seen. I can't think of a better place to learn it.
simple common sense basics
Already started using these slight adjustments to improve my turtle. Definitely worth a watch!
Great product. Definitely improved my defense and helped me avoid spending time in bottom side control.
Priit Mihkelson has one of the best defenses of all the game. Highly recommended
great
