Who writes these reviews?
I’m Max, a black belt from Amsterdam. I’ve spent over 200 hours watching BJJ instructionals and testing the techniques at my gym. I write these reviews so you can figure out which instructionals are actually worth your money before you buy them.
I’ve reviewed instructionals by Gordon Ryan, John Danaher, Craig Jones, Lachlan Giles, Mikey Musumeci, and dozens more. Each review covers what’s inside, who it’s for, and whether I think it’s worth the price.
No fluff, no filler. Just honest opinions from someone who actually watches and trains the material.
