Neil has great instructionals, and this one is no different from the rest. This one is enjoyable to watch/ rewatch and packed with great technical information. A must own.

I’ve always enjoyed Neil’s instructionals Quick way to make new friends. Nothing warms my heart more than hearing, “that was more of a crank.” 😀
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Neil Melanson at his best!
Really helped me understand the finer details of the front headlock submission game. Tons of submission options in the instructional.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:No regret to buy this super instruction!
No regret to buy this super instruction! His instruction is always insightful and effective! I can not wait his next instruction!
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Unique Perspective Leads to Unique Style
This is a good instructional if you can hit guillotines but feel like you are missing something. My guillotines got better, I learned new set ups, My control from a front head position jumped. Also he kept talking about the dudes butt, kinda weird, kinda funny... it kept me entertained.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:learn something amazing
one of my favorites
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Good stuff
Great instructional. There's some classic BJJ subs and some nasty catch finishes I haven't seen before. Definitely worth it.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:His royal filthiness
The master of filthiness bring us another gem... like the one that made me enthusiastic about him, we are miles away from BJJ or conventional grappling. it bring us concepts from wrestling (in the broader sense) and adapt it for grappling. study this and your game will take a big leap forward.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Guillotines that break the "rules"
This is probably the most thorough/efficient guillotine series out there. Neil shows a bunch of guillotines that "break the rules" of guillotines, ie finishing the guillotine when your training partner gets their hips to the opposite side. The handgun choke is awesome, and you'll have immediate success with it in the gym, and will keep some of those pesky wrestlers off of you. I refer back to this instructional often for details. 10/10
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Choke on it
I have many of neils instructionals and I love this one! Especially his use of the 3 finger grip, I have tried to incorporate it in most of my chokes. Fully recommend
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Neils unique system of techniques
Neils unique system of techniques is unbelievable every video series of his I get is game changing His stuff is so unusual my opponents almost never see it coming
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Choke Everyone
As a nearly 16 year practitioner of bjj and a first degree BB I take extreme pride in landing chokes on folks and Neil’s filthy style throughout this series has only taken my choke game to the next level. Fundamental and advanced tips that can take anyones game to a new level. Can’t say enough about Neil’s coaching style. Get this and/or any set by Neil. You won’t be disappointed. Stay filthy
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::+1::skin-tone-2:Really can make you dangerous
Neil is simply my favorite instructor here. His teaching style is clear and concise. Lots of really good technique but also good theory about why a technique works and what will make it fail. Small things like grip position and head angle make all the difference. If looking to improve your strangulation abilities, look no further.

Neil does a great job of showing the many different aspects of the guillotine choke, while being entertaining. Great instructional that is easy to follow and will up your finishing rate for sure.
Response from BJJ Fanatics:hugging::call_me_hand::skin-tone-2:Chokes Aplenty
This series has really made a difference in my ability to finish chokes and has made my guard and front headlock more dangerous than before. 10/10 would recommend.
