[@michaelbolen2118]

thanks for the KZbin postings, enjoy them. When will the new foundations Danaher series be available on the website?

[@milesdunbar9523]

Any chance you can somehow turn the volume up? For whatever reason your videos are like 3/5 as loud as everything else on youtube and its tough to hear you on a cell phone with full volume (much more so John than you) unless I am in a room that is completely silent.

[@SceneByScott]

Danaher begins to murder someone. Person tries to defend. Danaher (whispering): "That's not going to happen in the time available."

[@danbalaban1558]

I want to start working that into my rolls now lmao

[@Damian-dv6qx]

Bernardo is the nicest guy in bjj.

[@love2fight205]

Yes. Bernardo just gave away a free instructional to literally everyone because of the corona, he's the nicest high level Jiu Jitsuka I've seen.

[@enricopucci7413]

He is brazilian Kermit

[@chrispayne9080]

100% good dude. Such a great ambassador of the sport.

[@willdallas53]

I bet it would be a huge honor to train with him.

[@martinw4261]

The man can teach.

[@danielt.4330]

John Danaher showed up to Matt Serra's wedding wearing a rash guard. This is a man committed to his art.

[@superchunkylover23]

Its the tiny details he explains so clearly that makes him incredible! If I ever travel to NYC I wona get a class in with him and Marcelo (of course).

[@danielt.4330]

[@AamirTime]

Perfectly broken down. As always, a step-by-step approach to technique and what to look for to gain the upper hand. Brilliant.

[@CraigStarger]

At 7:29, Bernardo looks like he is going to barf.

[@alvarezgamers]

I notice that too. Bernardo’s face change lol happens to everyone lol

[@Rory695]

Looks to me like he just got smacked by an edible

[@patrickgoebel3301]

Man, somebody give danaher a mic!! p.s. all of these Danaher videos are pure gold. Each one is a priceless gem. Thanks so much Bernardo & Co!

[@TheMasterPhil]

Excellent and extremely detailed explanation.

[@BernardoFariaBJJ]

Phil Ross Osssss hope all Is good with you my friend

[@TheMasterPhil]

All is going well brother! Be sure to watch Season 2, Episode 2 of Knife or Death on the History Channel on 10/10 at 10:00pm - I'll be on it with my King Kukri! :)

[@CW-ke8rk]

Johns the best instructor that explains himself best for me with every detail of the execution

[@suhairiaziz4508]

John is the kind of person where if you have no idea what he was talking about you would go to sleep but if you understood he blows your mind

[@danbalaban1558]

This is amazing, Danaher's details are perfect solutions to the issues I've been facing.

[@shrimuyopa8117]

My very fist instructional was John Danaher's Kimura System. I have gotten a few instructionals after that and I have come to realize that John's approach is the best standard and should be the industry standard. Other instructionals simply offer you techniques and might chain some of them together. Everything is interconnected in John's system, it is explained in painstaking detail, reasons are given as to WHY you do something, and he explains multiple ways in how a technique can fail and the response to those failures. On top of that, his stuff works!!! The big key to any instructional is that you have to find a good training partner and consistently drill the moves. That can get in the way of regular training sometimes but when you find the balance it works.

[@matts3610]

Really enjoying the way john breaks down each part of the technique, makes it easy to follow.

[@Toddbarcey]

I usually get lost and zone-out in John Danaher's (leg) stuff. I think my brain is too simple or something. But this instruction, I can get my head around pretty good -- or better yet -- get someone else's head around. I'm going to have to keep him on the radar after this one.

[@Tulikanishk]

Thank you Sir OSS 🙏🏻 Sir Danaher’s videos are so in details and very minute ones. His voice is so saint type so calm and peaceful. It is as if he is training meditation. Amazing. I am so grateful for your videos Sir🙏🏻

[@patrickgoebel3301]

This series is pure gold! Each Danaher video is like a mini seminar. Thanks so much for this content!

[@SebastianHammerSC]

Mini seminar? More like a maxi-seminar imo.

[@PurpleLotusSamsara]

Danaher is just a genius .. obviously put on this earth to teach Jiu jitsu..all his techniques I feel are just sure fire submissions..this guy is just amazing!! Oss!!

[@quangong8889]

Subbed my first black belt during a roll as a blue belt yesterday with this move. Thanks John!

[@alyssondasilva4484]

are you Black belt Yet?

[@jptothetree]

Excellent breakdown. Thank you for having him teach this!

[@BM_718]

What a great teach. Thorough and very effective teaching.

[@jmoz]

Danaher talking and choking both sending him to sleep.

[@JP-tk8nx]

jwm0z most boring instructor on the planet

[@PanicGiraffe]

He has sus vibes.

[@Qwoptheplop]

Incredible amount of detail, these videos have been very helpful bernardo I hope you continue to post them and help us all out on our journey.

[@BernardoFariaBJJ]

Qwoptheplop thanks so much for the feedback my friend

[@pconyc]

John's the best, hands down. Pls get that instructional up! Thx

[@BernardoFariaBJJ]

pconyc thanks, we will get it up very soon...

[@bodiball]

Poor Bernardo! Looks like he was struggling to stay awake even after John released the choke.

[@ashqaisi3948]

BJJ Fanatics Instructional Videos are by far the best, I bought both Danaher's (Back and Leg Locks Videos) Extremely Satisfied!! When are you guys going to release the Front HeadLock and The Kimura series ? Are you releasing them together or each one on a separate time?

[@Jarg555]

7:30 "I bet you're wondering how I got here being a victim to the thousand chokes of death"

[@angreefarms]

Danaher is a technical beast..but his sense of humor always gets me lol he likes to add in his little jokes about not being flexible or having limited movement from his hip replacement and being able to do all the techniques lol

[@smitywerbenmanjensen5265]

Can't wait for this series.

[@Armbar4you]

Elbow to knee connection is a clutch detail I've missed.

[@kellyokamoto1604]

Wow! Mr. Danaher's attention to detail is an awesome thing to behold.

[@mistermendola]

Interesting to compare this with Garry Tonon's vid on how he applied it from snap down vs. Kit Dale.

[@emiem9354]

You want to get submitted by a high elbow you roll with Marcello. You want to learn all the details you watch John.

[@Howling-Mad-Murdock]

My daughter does mma and, like any good dad, I let her practice on me. Hands down this is the most unpleasant experience yet, I could not tap fast enough! Breaking it down into 3 key areas really helped her learn it. I’m going for a lie down.

[@peterciampa5102]

John, you are the king

[@primuspilushb]

Poor Bernardo. You're the best :)

[@gunplaygaming6830]

I respect the Brazilian dude rocking the F it I’m balding and not shaving it all off.... very retro circa 1979. Chicks love that.

Huge honour for who Bernardo?! Love your vids man

[@davidalzate5212]

John you keep blowing my mind

[@chaosdweller]

Never did this version rolling (maybe drilling) sounds effective I think I'm going to try it, thx.

[@---tx9xx]

Hi there, you mentioned the graphic John made, such as those that appear on the cover of the leglocks and other videos which I purchsed. Where and how exactly can I can obtain these graphics? They would be so helpful; for the price we pay for the instructionals (worth it and happy to support good people), they should really be included. Thank you. Bernado Faria BJJ Fanatics

[@lisabobbystamey7953]

what grip is john using to connect both hand to finish guillotine?

fuck this is gold free shit!! always wondered why I couldn't finish the high elbow

Beautifully explained - this is the same as the Marcelotine?

[@PandarenMaster]

yes

[@damjan9548]

If I only had an opportunity and money to learn personally from John.

[@pacific7775]

Excellent professor 👌.. i wish i had the money to spend a year with john danaher... this man makes bjj killers

[@SebastianHammerSC]

It is kind of a given that you are clearing the chin. Seems like most of the guys I roll with keep their chin tucked well. How do you get on the neck and past the chin? I am a newbie, so please forgive me if this is too much of an elementary question.

[@marios6524]

This guy is so technical. He is a kind of genius...

[@grenet2109]

Thank you !

[@seadoogti9288]

What always seems to be missing from these videos is the exact choking portion of the hand or wrist. After grabbing the chinstrap is the choke applied to the chinstrap or does Danaher slide up to the wrist for the choke? If the latter then how does he slide his hand to the wrist when Bernardo is keeping his chin tight and defending? After grabbing the the chinstrap what adjustments need to be made to the hand position against the neck for the choke?

[@I_m_jreed]

Danaher always solves my issues with the most simple solutions. Here I am wondering why I can’t get my damn elbow that high all this time. Wow

[@angel-rq4fz]

Marcelo Garcia is the Initiator of This move !

[@izzate7]

Grips tho. How do?

[@orestisnalmpantis]

would be great to see how to force the front headlock position !

[@cidicidic]

Just come and roll with me. I'm the master at giving up guillotines every time I shoot in for a take down.

[@carrorentals5162]

Love the details 😍

[@snowtrout123]

would this be effective with the gi?

[@guam58]

I always thought my arms created a 90 degree angle. In reality the elbows are almost aligned it's just that when you change the head position and fall to the opposite side of the high elbow, you are able to get the elbow on top of the trapezius. This creates the high elbow. I was going crazy wondering why can't I get my elbow high and over the trap between neck and shoulder.

[@danflanagan9536]

How exactly does raising the elbow contribute to the choke?

[@Raiyne123]

This man's a fucking samurai.

[@adonisgroup3242]

Would it be easier to hit the high elbow guillotine if you switch the grip of the high elbow hand? Meaning turn your palm away on the support hand like a reverse gable.

[@Alcatraz509]

Thank you Bernando for taking all these chokes 😅

[@lake_cooper]

So is this version a blood choke, or a blade (pain) choke? Without the back of the neck compressed, can you still get a triangle-like compression to stop blood flow??

[@Chill_il]

Yes, this is a blood choke. I know from experience of being on the receiving end

[@NorthernRiderOffroad]

I feel like John is staring into my soul at the beginning.

[@djnovice113]

So the high elbow only really gets "high" after you switch the shoulder you're facing, everything before that is locking up the choke hand and the shoulder and maintaining that distance to his clavicle.

[@bartofilms]

Awesome technique.

[@PandarenMaster]

guys remember to squeeze very light when drilling this with a partner lol, this is a very very strong choke.

[@MrCharlietoma]

Is it the same principle if 1 arm is in?

[@mcspud]

Damn Danaher is a great instructor :o

[@10Sethg]

What is the grip?

[@david7101]

If their really strong and you can’t dig under the chin do you just do it over the chin?

[@sebastianwolf4424]

mind blowing

[@kellyokamoto1604]

How would one get a hold of John Danaher's email? I'd like to talk with him regarding some of the trials and difficulties of having a similar paralyzed leg issue. My right leg is partially paralyzed and I'd like to know how he overcame his situation in regards to Jiu-Jitsu.

[@MrAntinexus]

How to deal with shoulder pressure when doing arm-in guillotine then?

[@BernardoFariaBJJ]

Flying Hedgehog great question... Im 99% sure he included it in his new instructional, “Enter The System: Front Head Lock Attacks”
