I love John's videos. However, I wish you could mic him up. Its always hard to hear
Had to turn off my fan to hear on my phone
Ya it's tough.
Had to turn of my tractor and grab me headphones.
yes even worst when the voice of bernardo is really loud, so you have to play with the volume like a dummy
What more do you want for FREE!!! How about you turn on captions you inconsiderate fuck
Here with john danaher, huge honor for me.
Placido.
😂😂 man of few words
The six elements:
1. Close distance
2. Establish grips
3. Get angle
4. Level change
5. Expose torso
6. Pin (head/shoulders to mat)
24.08 John: The legs can never be hidden by posture
24.09-24.39 Placido: John please stop telling everyone our secrets
I‘m waiting for the „how to be a uke“ by placido dvd
Amazing!!! He really is the best though. Never a fucking peep out of him, he takes nonstop beatings without making any choking noises or anything and he’s always in the right position to let John show the technique.
I think he is distracting and not in the loop with John and Bernardo. Constantly moving and not paying attention. John unfazed because he’s teaching but even in this vid you can see Bernardo getting annoyed by it.
For real why not
@@XHDxCriSiSx that’s not his fault the camera man just needs to crop him out of the picture
"sistematically getting tapped" by placido
Seeing Danaher attack backside 50/50 and respect 50/50 as a leglock option warms my heart. Shout out to Diggle and Giles.
Broski on the left looking like the mythical lost third Diaz brother. Great vid, guys!
Placido OS Diaz
Placido has been hitting the weights!!!!!
Still the least jacked uke.
@@BeardslapRadio I wouldn’t categorize Bernardo as jacked but he’s a larger guy I guess. Let Placido have his props!! Guy is taking nonstop ass whippings to help better our game.
@@kogrady2409 it’s not my opinion… ua-cam.com/video/_Xf3yIwCbdk/v-deo.html
@@BeardslapRadio To be fair to placido though, have you seen Matteus and Giancarlo? hahaha
Fear the man who whispers in conversations, great power he holds.
John just give the best detailed explanation. I had to go back to his videos to understand and look for the smallest critical details.
Works for me in the gi since purple, opens your opponent to so many attacks at all times, and keeps them on defense. If you are a smaller player it’s very effective for not getting smashed.
Which principle in particular?
So the counter to the squad is handstand passing, got it.
They won't know what hit 'em ;)
“I don’t care where you are”
“I don’t care where he is”
“One part of the body always exposed is…legs.
~ John Danaher (2021)
He chats shit. I'm a double amputee. Try and grab my legs John!
@@johnmassy1572 Don't have to. Someone else already did.
@@Sydberg damn
@@Sydberg got em
@@Sydberg god damn
JDs the man getting indepth with his technique and insight always makes me want to get on the mat
11nth minute. Talking about guard retention really opened my eyes.
I'm a simple man. I see Danaher? I click like
I have a lot of these new school guard retention vids. They are heavy on important theory which is great if you are deep in to jiujitsu. But they dont give you simple repeatable live drills to do to train all the movements so i had to build them myself. Instuctionals now fall into two categories. Theory or technique. But they lack the nuts and bolts drills to bring the theory into practice.
Because the best athletes in the world don’t do simple repeatable drills
That was super 🙌🏼awesome. I like how Danaher broke it down to 6 things you need to know in order to pass the guard which helps you understand the philosophy.
We need a mic on danaher immediately
this video MUST be watched again & again, and again...
hahaha exctly
Oh John gonna speak, time to raise the volume to 100.
everytime I watch one of your videos, especially whith Danaher, I learn a new concept that may improve my game. Thanks for the excellent work!
good to have john for some knowledge
Omg i have had a major break from the sport (7years) and recently restarted. Catching up with top competitors and seeing a young Craig Jones as a Giles demonstration partner says miles about him as a teacher, as well as giving excellent advices on defeating very stubborn player that play butterfly/ knee shield game in practice.
Craig jones vs leandro Lo is a testament to Danaher talking about the legs always being available
This is a great 30 minute video that could be done in 5 minutes. I really appreciate the free content, thank you.
Placido flexing on us at the beginning
It’s taken me a long time to get good at guard retention. I’ve always been fairly good at imposing my will upon people, which means I’m usually in top position. I literally had to resort to pulling guard just to get some practice from guard. It definitely would have been nice to start out with a focus on guard retention so I could master that first. It makes such a huge difference in the rest of your game.
Legend has it, Danaher is hiding a grizzly staph infection under those knee sleeves
It must be a new thing, because there are a ton of pictures of Danaher wearing shorts without knee sleaves and his legs look fine.
thats the loudest request to subscribe to the youtube channel on the internet. ive watched so many vids on this channel that i can time that headphone destroying moment :)
Amazing video. He is a master splinter of BJJ
That's going to be sick !
For those who doesnt want to watch 30+ min general idea of the video ("new wave of jiujitsu") is that you must be good at attacking upper body & lower body of opp. No thanks are necessary.
Thanks for another great learning video! 👀👍
I'm sure I saw John Danaher wearing a Jungle fightwear rashguard at a seminar last summer. I HAVE to see him do the animal combat talk in one of these
So smooth
I love these videos thanks for giving back and sharing your knowledge guys!!
Awesome details and logic !
Brilliant instructor!
"The Knowledge Denier Model" 😂 he makes it sound like a university class
24:06 Placido's mind just got blown!! haha
Me too man, when you said it blew placido’s mind I had to know, and it was that important.
Brilliant!!
John always speaks like he's inside a library.
Es un erudito en el tema 🪄🥋
cool video. btw, i just read that danaher used to be a bouncer. can he maybe make an instructional on how to use BJJ for bouncing/doorman work?🙂
think he’s said he’ll get around to this at some stage
he actually has a part of his feet to floor series which he dedicates to this. He says he favoured the high single leg for various reasons when dealing with drunk hooligans he had to remove from the bar
Placido hasn’t stopped nodding for 30 min
11:03 Placido ready to burst through his guard
Placido repping Croatia on his rashguard 16:00 :D
That moment of silence @24:05 😂
Hahah
Hahaha thank you for this
Oh man, Placido sidewards glancing from Danaher to Bernardo killed me
Stop taking my money. Between this and Gordon’s attacking top pins I’m going to be broke
Contact me on Facebook.
@@davidtice4972 you share it ?
look in telegram for @danaher_course
John, if you want breadsticks then just get breadsticks.
Anyone know if this instructional is up yet on the website?
17:18 “you go back downstairs”
Oh man, another "new wave" video tutorial !!!! I gotta have it...just wondering which body part I could donate this time around? Just joking people, I can afford it...I think? =/
You need links My friends.
I mean if you can buy them all why not helping them out but if you're broke then you know what to do.
My apologies, all my comments regarding Professor Danaher or the Squad are in pure jest. I have the finances and equally fiscally responsible. I project my enthusiasm with these laughable remarks, no malice intended.
@@nbt1420
don't apologize my man internet was popularized by the free share of content don't get me wrong I truely believe that all the danaher material is worthy of the price they are charging for but at the same time there are poeple like me that don't live in the U.S and don't have the finances to afford it so thanks to whoever is making it possible for us.
@@peacefuldecadence328 links?
3 other reasons: Leg locks have also a fast setup, less stacking defense possible preoccupied by turning away, and less dexterity then arms....
Get the mics going!
How attack the legs when the other guy is passing like Bernardo, with his over under pass style?
USB lapel mics Bernardo. They will make a difference.
22:24 Damn John
John 'Leg Lock' Danaher
WHEN?
How does this dvd differ from Gordon's supine/seated guard.
it is taught by danaher :)
I wish i could hear what john was saying
Bernardo I love your videos but you REALLY need better audio. Seriously, just pay 80 bucks for a small olympus recorder and set it on the mat out of camera, it will add alot of real value to your product. I have my volume overdriven to 150% and still can barely hear anything.
Bjj fanatics you guys need mics !
I always get startled from the audio at the end asking for subscriptions. The volume is always much louder than in the instruction!
2:28 You were shown a collection of moves from God
Bro, this audio is just fucky enough that it felt like the sound wasn't coming from my headphones, but rather coming from the speaker, and it had me panic pause and check my headphones. Lmao
Alright Danaher... I see you doing Lachlan's legs entry
Evolving together, in love
Who isn't?
I'd think less of him if he wasn't... it's too good not to.
Placido gotta ditch the clean fade and go shiny bald to match bernardo and john
That would be hilarious
Oh shit, here it is
Max was here
Great video but... volume is to low..... can't hear John.....
I swear y’all are just in loud ass places I can hear him fine
Was I only person heard him say leg lock defense technology I think he meant say techniques but lol 😆 was just curious if I'm hearing things. Lol I agree but my case because I can Frog sit it makes hard people get unseet or elevate my legs if I Frog sit I'm unusual in that I can sit with all my weight like a Frog legs flat to ground
Why isn’t Placido specified with the honour ? 🤣🤣
Because meeting him is not an honor.
It should be because through his time being contributed, both Bernardo and John have achieved fat bank balances via instructionals - anyone who’s helping me make money deserves to be honoured
We can’t heaaar 😭😭😭
Video without audio
Omg the man needs a microphone so badly !!!
“The one part of the body always exposed is the legs”. Too bad I’m a white belt🤣
Find a new school that teaches legs immediately, at least in no gi class.
Had to choke my wife & kids to sleep, couldn’t hear John talk 😅
who else read the title as "open gward" out loud?
When does it stop being an honor, Bernardo?
Never
Can't get to grips how they have no wrinkles but the young guy must be the stress of bjj😂
Hes raising his eyebrows ._.
I only counted 5 - can someone list all the 6?
Distance, angle, grips, level change, chest exposure
@@harrykimura and shoulders pining
Mic much?! Sound is 50%of the video!!! Need this wisdom!
You need to get a better MIC set up. Sound quality is not good, can't hear John clearly.
Audio is super weak. I have to put ,y ear on the Speaker.
He liked to talk himself
Our modern day Bruce lee
After this video they renamed Lake Placid to Lake Placido
All the fancy bjj guard moves were judo first though. Maybe not the methodologies and names but they def had involved guards, olympic judo just pushed them out of popularity
Bernardo is too loud or Danaher is too quiet. If I get my volume where Bernardo is screaming then I cant hear Danaher at all.
gotta record or present with higher sound. hard to hear.
If you have no flexibility or mobility your guard retention will likely be trash
MATRIX 🤣👍
Go fund me for a direction mic for the camera....
Can't hear john
I love the videos, but you guys really need to pull the microphone out of the ass and increase sound-ouput by 300%.
