Awesome resource for me as a beginner! Great detail in this content! The techniques shown have been of great use in these times when a lot of people are relying on solo training. I look forward to perfecting all of the movements shown!

Techniques are explained very clearly with attention to detail. Helped me understand some details about bringing and shrimping I hadn't noticed before

Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Overall just great breakdown of
Overall just great breakdown of why solo drills are important in BJJ. Never knew I was doing some of these drills wrong till I started watching this.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:World Training from a World Class Practitioner and Coach
Incredibly useful especially for a new person. Learning how to move your body is the first thing necessary - even before learning the moves A world class Coach giving you hard earned lessons for free I have since gone on and bought 3 more of Mr Danaher’s videos Well worth the time and money
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Excellent materials
Thank you so much for this video. Next week is my second week in this sport and I really appreciate these free materials.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:From warm-ups to cerebral violence...
First and foremost I just wanna to thank the BJJ Fanatics team for providing such a valuable product for FREE!!! In the spirit of full disclosure, I don't practice BJJ...yet, but my daughter does. This program has enabled me to help her extract more value from the warm-ups she was already mindlessly doing. I watched the entire program and was completely absorbed in the master teaching that was being delivered. I have an even greater appreciation for the art and sport of BJJ and expect to make this a part of my lifestyle soon.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:John Danaher teaching makes even
John Danaher teaching makes even solo drills sound interesting! In my gym nobody explains how to properly move, instead focussing mostly on guard passes and submissions. As a 1y white belt, i felt that I had to develop even the most basic survival skills by trial and error while rolling. Danahers training material has been an eye opener for me in regards as how to move defensively! Only thing that I miss: he explains the concept of shadow-grappling, however for beginners, a straight build-up in the form of a simple program to focus on during the covid situation would have been great!(x reps of drill y)
Great help for those jiu-jitsu
Great help for those jiu-jitsu beginners like me to familiarized every drill that can be used in the gym and with training partners.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Danaher
Great review!
Get it
Very informative. I'm a huge John danaher fan as I personally find it much easier to understand "concepts" rather than techniques. Moreover, in my academy there is little time spent teaching you how to train at home if needed which I believeis a necessity (especially as all the clubs are closed on the uk). Video quality is excellent. Big issue is there is soooo much information thatbita not easy to do it in 1 sitting (it's a hard life) I would gladly recommend this and other bjj fanatics products
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:Very thorough
Great practice during lockdowns/ quarantines.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:The Breakdown
Love it. Danaher can break down the geometric mathematics of Jiu-Jitsu
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:These are great drills for
These are great drills for anyone to do while stuck in quarantine to improve their grappling ability.
Well explained, highly valuable basics to know as any BJJ practitioner - dont neglect the basics!
Great explanations and techniques. The course was well presented and I am happy to be able to receive such quality coaching during the lockdown. The structure of the course is also made clear in the beginning - for example, I preferred just getting to move for the first time and jumped over to the training part without listening much to the explanations - which I later redid in a later training session. Very valuable, I learned much I had not known before or that wasnt explained in my club (like how to properly bridge). Thanks!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:100% Worth it.
I found this incredibly useful - just the depth of explanation and drilling really ads something else.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging:I’ve done solo drills but most of the time I’d was mindless shrimping and never really paid attention to how important it is to master these seemingly mundane movements. Thanks for this instructional, it is definitely one I would recommend to any belt level.
Amazing details to solo drills!
