Great techniques, but sometimes the camera angle made it difficult to see exactly what Lucas was doing.
Since learning the techniques in this video, it's now my go to method when in half guard. I found it to be really effective and well demonstrated.
Coyote Half Guard
Only downside is it is mainly focussed on the Gi. The No-Gi Techniques are in a seperate instructional. Also Great filming, multiple angles. Anyone who plays half guard MUST watch this.
impressed.
This video completely changed my half guard game. I find the coyote guard and other half-guard variations during rolls consistently. The techniques shown are simple and effective, even against much larger opponents.
Really helped my game.
Great way to implement the halfguard/coyote guard. Highly recommend.
This is my A game. Very good concepts from one of the greatest. Take your half guard to another level.
The finer details explained really well, a system put together in great sequences.
Not much to say. This is old school half guard, but very, very effective. Some great fine details for fine tuning your dogfight and underhook half guard game.
Excellent content for my game because I am strong working out if half guard to control positions and submissions. Instruction is very detailed and concise

I have been to one of his seminars and learning from his instructional has all the details that you would expect to get from this Half Guard Master. Get this series and learn from one of the best.
Excellent
Great instructional
Volumes 1 and 2 teach the core of Lucas Leite half guard GI game; volume 3 teaches getting to the opponent’s back (GI) from various positions (i.e., the opponent is on their back, in sitting guard, and the turtle), several submissions from the back and maintaining back control; and volume 4 covers half guard material for NO GI. For half guard there is a focus on commencing with a knee shield, hooking the opponent’s leg to create pressure on their knee and to come to the dogfight position (aka the Coyote position) to a sweep or move to the opponent’s back. Additionally, in volumes 1 and 2 techniques are taught to stop your opponent passing your half guard and how to enter half guard from various positions. The instructional has a total runtime of 3 hours and 25 minutes. In my opinion Lucas Leite’s teaching is excellent. His instructions are clear and focused. Unfortunately, a detraction in this instructional for me, was when performing techniques Lucas Leite didn’t seem to consistently have a good sense of what the camera lens was capturing (note this was his first BJJ Fanatics instructional and the camera operator also had a responsibility in this regard). Techniques are repeated generally three times and the repetitions don’t always complement each other for filming purposes. In my experience the techniques taught work and importantly Lucas Leite also teaches alternative techniques for changing circumstances. In respect of video quality, range could have been better (i.e., focusing on the instructor and uke and having less studio background) and as noted above at times the camera angle could have been better (i.e., sometimes for a technique demonstration the film footage does not show clearly what is being described, such as situations where the demonstrations are focused on one side of the body). Filming quality would have been improved if close ups and optimal filming angles had been used to ensure all the necessary limb positions and movements were clearly captured. Other than the regular cough from the cameraman, which is audible in the preview, sound quality is good. The instructional appears to have been filmed at the BJJ Fanatics studio. In summary, setting aside some of the identified filming issues this is an excellent instructional to purchase because of the techniques taught and the quality of the instruction. You will be rewarded if you carefully watch, engage and practice the techniques taught in this instructional. If so, in my experience you will improve your half guard game and increase your confidence on being on the bottom. This is a classic BJJ instructional and definitely worth adding to your BJJ video library.
Thanks. I'll grow more.
I started using this game from the very beginning and there seems to be endless opportunities to imporove the coyote half guard. Why not learn from the best in the game.
o conteúdo do Professor Lucas Leite é incrível, mas desanima de assistir por causa da demora para carregar o conteúdo pelo BJJ Fanatics. Toda hora fica travando para carregar!
Simple and effective!
いいね
This was the first instructional I ever purchased on BJJ Fanatics. I was going back and reviewing some of my other earlier instructionals, and I remembered this one. When I purchased it, I really studied it and added most of the concepts to my half guard game most of which I still use today. If you're looking for a systematic approach to half guard, this can be a standalone approach.
