In The Gym: John Danaher And Meregali Make Final Grand Prix Preparations

[@JSMinstantcoaching]

This coach is mind-blowing with his knowledge complexities, switching at that level from no gi to gi as if it was just changing your snickers, is so impressive, awesome ;-)

[@TheMartialWay]

John Danaher teaching gives me goosebumps. He is literally the best coach ever.

[@gsp3428]

amazing how Jon is coaching one of the greatest Gi players of all time and teaching him.

[@antoniosianez2970]

“We are.. what they grow beyond. That is the true burden of all masters.” 😂😂😂 yoda quote cause fuck it why not. Meregali is the future

[@brandondub6429]

Grappler or even fighter just not a player

[@BreathEmpowerment]

I can't say work total certainty regarding these days, but I know that at the blue mats in NY Danaher coached more gi than no gi. Many people just think he's so much no gi because the work he did revolutionizing leglocks is mostly used in no gi.

Oh captain my captain

[@dildobaggins8987]

It’s good to see you here dohn. As a fellow Junior Athlete we need to band together

[@cromdaleblvd4677]

John Danaher is the Don..

[@user-uk9er5vw4c]

the handshakes at the end!

[@AIAM_]

Meregali's technical attacks are sick!!!

[@ArielTabak]

John’s been studying some Tainan footage I see 😅

[@rtasi2000]

you seriously think that ?

[@kirklandfoodwrap]

@@rtasi2000You can clearly see Danaher’s studied a lot of the AOJ guys if you know what you’re watching. That grip on the gi to expose the back during the pass is straight from Tainan. Other things you see in other footage or instructionals are some of the high step passing from Rafa, hip frame/framing the guard which Danaher calls self-framing, cross shin pins, etc

[@Victorvictorsouzasouza]

The diference is that John seems to avoid using leg drag on passing gi system. Dont know why, but it looks Like dont fit well on tallers athletes

[@rtasi2000]

@@kirklandfoodwrap i jumped straight to thinking raphas game rather than tainan.

[@supern0is349]

@@rtasi2000 but tainan mixed up rafa's and gui mende's games

[@user-uk9er5vw4c]

at this point I'd like a real match Meregalli vs Ryan

[@spencerpaige]

John with a nice tip around 3:00 mark.

[@alext7202]

What is John Danaher's net worth?

[@sixpooI]

gordon ryan said in an interview that john doesn't take money (from the DDS) for coaching.

[@icya5844]

@@sixpooIeven with his instructional/seminar sales alone he's worth multiple millions of dollars

[@sonnysoderlind9969]

10million usd

[@patrickgavin2012]

Is wifi worth the $50 per month, that's the question..

[@BreathEmpowerment]

​@@patrickgavin2012lol came here to write this, I'm guessing his bills are incredible low. Rent, food (I think), knives, a secret storage facility, and possibly wifi. I never heard confirmation on that.

[@LUCAS_SOUSA10]

Meregali is very technical

[@nabilben3959]

What does he mean by creative drilling

[@fran9023]

look greg souders ecological dynamics or standard jiu jitsu. thats basically it

[@__________________________8790]

Love the video, also first

[@ParkerPPipe]

It’s interesting that Danaher chooses to wear a rash guard at all times. Anybody who’s worn one knows they’re not especially comfortable. Especially not compared to a t shirt. For a man with such high intellect you’d think he’d see the egoic nature of wearing a compression shirt to a wedding

[@user-uk9er5vw4c]

who cares, let the man wear the hell he wants, we're here for his jiu-jitsu

[@ParkerPPipe]

@@user-uk9er5vw4c it’s an observation ding dong. Not a call to stop wearing them

[@mohammadharoon9546]

His comfortable in discomfort i guesz

[@jeanprimeau5689]

imagine your coach not even standing up to shake your hand,

[@alexrosario423]

Guy is there all day and has broken knees and hips. I can forgive a cripple wanting to avoid the tremendous stress/pain of standing up.

[@boristraktorov6229]

I think it has a healthy reason (back etc.)he works much as a trainer and standing up here and there can be hard for him why don’t make him something easy and letting him sit while shaking hands

[@rtasi2000]

you either must be new to john's sitting posture or just a clueless hater (2 reasons) (First) is that john has had multiple surgeries on his left knee which resulted in artificial shortening of the leg and deformed ligaments, drastically inhibiting Danaher's ability to properly extend and retract his knee. in other words the guy has shxxty knee problems that affects not only his walking but also his back as well. (Second) the sitting posture in which john is sitting in is called Seiza ( japanese sitting technique) is a kneeled position so as to convey respect . it helps correct your posture and strengthen your spinal cord and relieves backache, relaxes muscles and spine. danaher is a firm believer of the Japanese concept (Kaizen) "continuous improvement". despite his physical limitations the man is trying his best with the limited mobility he has left. a classy gesture of respect if anything.

Mengueli e o fake Gracie kkkkk

Caralho meregali tu raspou a cabeça véi?! Que raiva tava um gato. Vou dar uma dica: na lateral passa uma máquina menor pra não ficar com cabelo de mico sagui que é mais feio ainda. Aff que ódio. Esses cara gato fica fazendo força pra ficar feio 😩😩😩😩😩😩😩
