Berimbolos are one of BJJ’s most recognizable and notorious moves, and a lot of older, less flexible grapplers think it isn’t for them. Now that can all change. Mikey’s system is made so that it doesn’t take any crazy flexibility or speed, instead using reliable grips and simple body movements to create the attacks you want.

Even against way bigger, stronger fighters, you can have huge success with the berimbolo. Mikey has become notorious for fighting opponents as big as twice his size, and he does it with a deep level of understanding of technique that few can match. Now, you can benefit from his lifetime of study as he pulls back the curtain on his modern style.
