Battle Tested Pressure Passing: 
In this instructional I go deeper in examining every single detail of my Pressure Passing Encyclopedia - this DVD is for advanced passers and those who want to see me actually use my own concepts to pass some pretty advanced guards.. I added another 30 new passing techniques to on top of what I showed in "Pressure Passing Encyclopedia". I also filmed myself rolling for over 50 minutes, only using pressure passing, and I narrated every minute of every single roll to make sure everyone understands what I'am thinking and doing during each position. Buy Now

When I started BJJ, I was probably like you. 

I was trying to find a game that I could use effectively for my own body Spider Guard didn't work because I had to be very flexible and wasn't... Butterfly guard required a lot of leg dexterity to utilize hooks, grips that I just didn't have, De La Riva and the modern games was never a fit for me, I couldn't go upside down; the half-guard was the easiest game for my body - it required no special talents. 

Now after 17 years doing BJJ, I can say that everything I won in this game was from mastering the the Half Guard; it is a simple game, that everyone can practice, especially the older grapplers, because all you have to do is to lock one of your opponents legs and use a system that works. Even if you aren't fast, strong or flexible, you can win from Half Guard. 

 If you already have my Half Guard Instructionals, I would suggest taking a look at Lucas Leite's DVD, because it is pretty similar to my single leg half-guard, but in a way that favors smaller guys - Lucas prefers fighting bigger guys!
