Excellent training for translations and combinations
This video will make you a better person
Transitions are important, and I'm grateful for that.
The best master
Excellent instruction that ties many of his techniques together in a useful way.
Excellent, that's what makes you a professional.
This is a really excellent concept based DVD. I'm a small guy, not particularly talented and I've been able to implement a good chunk of it in live rolling
🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was one of the first instructionals showing a full gameplan rather than just a bunch of techniques, its the systematic approach. There could be more specific details, ie: responses to common defenses, as this is the main thing that can make transitions difficult. There's nothing wrong with it, theres just better options in 2025, even from Faria himself. Its best for beginners in my opinion.
