WHAT WILL YOU LEARN?

Create an iron-clad open guard that is able to withstand attacks and break down the opposition for sweeps, submissions, and more, with the help of Professor John Danaher’s New Wave approach to bottom position. With 8-volumes packed with his strategies, conceptual frameworks, techniques, and more, you will get hours of detail on how to level up your guard game and build the same skills his students have excelled with.

With a blueprint built around exploiting the most common dilemmas in grappling, you will get a deep base of knowledge around not just what to do, but when and why you should do it. With dilemma-based approaches to grappling, learn how to exploit the five major concepts that will dramatically improve your guard game with Professor Danaher.

Learn the most effective ways (and positions) to wrestle up from bottom position, with high-percentage sweeps and wrestling takedowns that Professor Danaher has modified and optimized for no-gi guard. Sweep from bottom with a special study on the overlooked-but-powerful sumi geishi, and learn why this is John’s principal attack on a kneeling opponent.
