Talk about work ethic.

Why is Bernardo a six time world champion? Look how focused and engaged he is and the enthusiasm he brings to try the position in every video he puts out. Bernardo signify's how a black belt is supposed represent this art by being a great student.

4:05 -- best mount defense ever -- "I'll be solo for one second, Bernardo."


Like that, without any effort, there are no wedges, no pressure, no control. A multiple-time world champion is rendered completely powerless, and the mount defense has been executed perfectly.

[slavicvolk]

1:55 understanding wedges
5:55 sliding shrimp
7:08 power shrimp
9:18 elbow escape
11:42 repeat
14:00 repeat
15:55 repeat
16:40 old school
19:23 repeat vs good crossface

Whenever I hear “huge honour” from Bernardo I know it’s time to get ready to rumble. Him & John are the gift that keeps on giving!

[jonl]

3:32 I can't be the only one that got a chuckle out of John tying Bernardo's belt for him instinctively without interrupting his explanation lol

[solomanneil]

2nd month white belt here. Went to roll right after watching this. Used power shrimp escape to slide shrimp to guard and had a blue belt say "OK, that was nice" mid-roll. :)

[jlo]

Love how he fixes his belt in mid sentence without missing a beat...obviously he is obsessed with minor details, that's why is a great coach

[stevereedatx]

This helped me out immensely; used this last night in class repeatedly. Started BJJ at 43 years old Jan 2023

Jesus, ever since I found John Danaher a couple months ago, I've made the most improvement in my game in a long time. A lot of "aha" moments

[mralwayscorrect]

3:30 such a gentleman he tightens his belt!!

[StephenMoore]

These are THE best BJJ breakdowns on the net.

God damn, Danaher has encyclopedic knowledge of BJJ. Guy is a gawd damn genius

[patrickgoebel]

A world class instructor can take a basic fundamental and make it so sophisticated, Danaher is the next level of jiu jitsu teacher!

[shaunkerr]

2 month white belt. I've spent all afternoon watching this over and over. Can't wait to try this next roll

[mski]

Bernardo seems too genuinely nice to be an absolute murderer on the mat, but he is. So much respect for the man.

[michaelcorcoran]

Fixing that belt at @3:30 John Danaher is some man for one man!

[Roaggie]

Great video. I love how when Danaher is talking it feels like he's talking directly to you.

[harderheart]

Bernardo can't wait to get the mount position. John Denaher: wait Bernardo 😂

“Lets bring the camera on this side”

I love how carefully and focussed Bernardo is listening. I mean, this guy is one of the top black belts in the world and has won literally everything but still is listening to Johns explanations like a white belt. This says a lot about Bernardos humbleness and endless willingness to learn. Thats why he accomplished what he accomplished. Incredible mindset.
