The reviews

• Z Guard

  Great system about one of the most used positions in grappling. It has low price also and it is very practical.

  Kryštof Š.September 9, 2026Czech RepublicVerified buyer4-6 yrs training

• Good Introduction to Z-Guard

  Craig does well with covering both what the defender in Z-Guard wants to do to control, sweep, and submit their opponent while also showing what the attacker passing the guard wants to do.

• Good Beginner’s Guide to Z Guard

  Craig does a good job of explaining both what the defender using Z Guard wants to do and what the attacker passing does as well. I am interested to see how he expands on this system in his follow-up Z Guard instructional.

• Z-guard encyclopedia

  I been coming back to this instructional for years, such great techniques that have been using for so long, Craig is super technical and at the same time doesn’t get very explain techniques.

• z guard

  secure the feet with good knee shield and feet together. weave the arm in as an overhook and use shoulder pressure to belly down position. this will break the top player's posture and then attack.
