  Jaehee K.February 28, 2026South KoreaVerified buyerBrown belt7-9 yrs training

• Beginner friendly but builds well

  Before starting this course, I knew nothing about Octopus Guard. It was a great entry level introduction, Craig explains things clearly and focuses on the important concepts without getting lost in too much detail. Even though it’s beginner friendly, the concepts he covers give you room to build on. When I tried things in class and didn’t get them right, I could come back to the core concepts and understand what I needed to work on. I learned a lot in a short amount of time.
