I’ve trained for over a decade, and I thought I had a decent half guard. What surprised me about this course is how complete it is. Daniël doesn’t just show a few random techniques, he connects everything into a system, with answers to the problems that usually shut half guard down. The problem-solving sections alone are worth it. I’ve already added the Single Leg Half Guard setups into my game, and they're working against my regular training partners. This is some high-level stuff.
