Cool. I have a couple of their instructionals that are in my que. I have to get through a few others first.
I think youāll like them. They give a ton of detail without being overly verbose and their English is excellent.
Awesome. Iāve got Guiās Understanding The Distance From Top, and, Understanding The Distance From Guard. I was optimistic that theyād be good videos and youāre making me more so.
I also recommend Rafaās Armbar Master Class. Itās expensive but has changed a lot of how I do things with the armbar. And itās got a ton of great content. Itās on AOJplus
Thanks for the recommendation. I have Danaherās Enter The System Armbars insructional. Have you watched that one? If so, do you prefer one over the other?
Compare and contrast?
Yes Iāve seen Danaherās armbar one. I liked it. Iām still getting through Rafaās but itās awesome. The Danaher one is great but itās all no-gi oriented, which is fine but I train in the gi as well. Rafaās teaching style is less lecture and more down to earth, more conversational, and the footage of him rolling and applying the armbar in matches is jaw dropping at times. My favorite Danaher armbar material is actually in a section of Feet to Floor 3.
Yeah, Danaher is my favorite instructor but most of his material is nogi, and most of my training is in the gi. Thatās just the schedule at my school. I wish Danaher did more gi instructionals.
His Feet to Floor stuff is gi. Itās really good.
Awesome. I have it but havenāt watched it yet.
John bounced before his knees were crippled. He supposedly used to hold pads at Renzoās years ago. I wouldnāt use him as my striking coach but when it comes to grappling for MMA and wrestling against the wall there is no one even close to his knowledge level on the entire planet.
Itās also kept very quiet but heās beat up quite a few people in the streets of NYC before you had 100 cameras on you at all times.
And Rickson is 400-0.
Iām sure he can defend himself quite wellā¦but I donāt believe all the stories and hoopla. You ask my students and Iām a world beater too.
