I honestly think they sell everything they know on the DVDs. What you see on Gordon's DVDs is precisely what he does in his matches. The percentage of people who are willing to put in the thousands of hours to perfect these techniques, while maintaining the the strength and conditioning of a world class athlete is so low that I really don't think they are too worried about "secrets" getting out at this point.
Green Bay sweep. You know it’s coming and you still can’t stop it. Knowing matters not and makes you feel worse. You knew it was coming and still get tapped
How deep does this guy get with Jiu Jitsu? Ive never heard these details before. This guy is reinventing things I thought I mastered. Now I realize I've been training blind. But I now can see the light.
Watching any kind of instructional by Danaher feels so enlightening. There are so many techniques or even fractions of techniques, that when explained by him, bring Jiu Jitsu to such a conscious level. It’s incredible to think what answering the simple question of WHY we execute a technique the way we do, instead of just memorizing the movement, can do for your game. Thank you sir for your videos. Big fan
That is so true. It's the little details that solidify the move in its entirety. When you learn when and why of the move it allows you to start creating strategy which is the funnest part of jiu jitsu.
Dude, it’s like you don’t need to watch anyone else. I’ve got a buddy that keeps telling me to get Gordon Ryan videos. I’m like why? He’s just regurgitating John in a less eloquent way.
Triangle was my best submission by far, and this is almost exactly how I used to do it (except I didn't always finish that way with the leg hook at the end). Always with single collar tie. I found that with really strong guys, if you base out on the elbow that's controlling the wrist, you can use your core strength and weight to collapse their arm through the movement of basing on the elbow and going to your back. It's been a long time since I've trained and can't remember exactly how to do it, but I remember very strong guys being astonished that i was able to seemingly control their arm that way.
John is 100% correct on the wrist and neck grips setting up into the triangle better than double-wrist control. There's a video out there with Rickson Gracie rolling with Royler. Rickson uses the neck/wrist control triangle which nearly catches Royler.
Finally, that wrist control shit never works during live rolling. Everyone sees it coming and just postures up like he said. This makes much more sense and I plan to use it tomorrow in class.
If you want a more effective triangle set up than this, research Ryan Hall's hip bump triangle. I get it on guys that are twice my skill level. It's extremely effective. This one is not as effective because they can just circle their head to undo your collar tie.
Charles Bell thanks! I’ll check it out. Triangles from guard is what I’m focusing on right now. I have long legs so it should be an effective submission once I become more familiar.
@@playapapapa23 The most effective setup for me with double wrist is from letting them start to use the wedge to break my guard. Its a bitch to describe but they tend to ignore your grips because they want their hands there. I should do a video on it.
I've been training for over a decade and I've never seeim this approach to a triangle like this. Usually your shooting legs towards your target. In this case, the target is secure creating efficiency and expelling energy at the upmost opportunity. I'm 6'4" and can see this working on even the bigger opponents. Trying this tomorrow.
Never have I even considered locking a triangle at the extreme angle Mr Danaher does at 4:25. Maybe half that angle most of the time. Now, I know what I''l be trying next.
Such a tight triangle. I have played with this but have a hard time getting the lock behind the head instead of over the shoulder. Seems like it is a different triangle than the normal one from guard.
Stacking is not relevant at this triangle angle if you would notice. Stacking breaks the triangle because the shoulders move in breaking the legs figure of four, from this angle it wouldn't
This video gives a visualizion of what jacinto already pointed out. If you react to the stack appropriately it actually works in your favor. ruclips.net/video/rc5_ZGyQglE/видео.html
He is moving to a tight triangle so quickly that you will be out before your stacking attempt would yield anything. It's not your typical get the arm across, struggle to adjust your legs triangle that I typically botch. He seems to be putting himself in a vulnerable position but because he pulls on the head to bring the neck deep into the crook of the knee and is at an angle where the legs can scissor very powerfully, it's game over.
He’s a Renzo Gracie black belt not a 10th planet. Someone training no-gi doesn’t mean they’re 10th planet. Also, 10th planet bjj is not trash, they’re legit just like any other bjj, just different principles. My professor has instilled in us that there’s no wrong way to do jiujitsu cuz one that doesn’t work for me might work wonders for you. BJJ is sport secondary only. The primary purpose of BJJ is to make you better as a person and to help you defend yourself if ever comes a time you need to defend yourself.
can anyone tell me the benefit of figure four-ing the legs both before or after the angle creation? I've always locked up my triangles square to my partner, then made micro adjustments to finish.
Anyone else notice the really large scar for Danaher's hip replacement surgery. Guy's body is literally destroyed and he's passing on what he knows to the next generation...
He had the triangle as soon as he put the knee next to his ear. If you know you're going to get it there. Why complicate it and go with the fig 4? and the extra steps where he can potentially escape? That's what I don't get. Then again I'm no black belt... (but the triangle is my go to haha)
I agree with you. I'm also a good triangle guy, and I feel like if I were to lift my hips up and turn like a pendulum sweep motion, I think that would illicit my opponent to continue the momentum and try to stack me. There are ways to create the angle without the threat of the stack pass, but you can't lock it up immediately but I'm willing to sacrifice that for the safety aspect. I set the triangle up and then I just lock with my ankles, then I grab the leg and create the angle as I lock it in. As soon as you put a foot on the hip, that screams to your opponent "stack this motherfucker!"
i dont see how anyone above purple is gonna let you get that complete angle before you lock it in iv never seen anyone do this in competition you give a guy an inch hes gonna take amile
Dear John, The "knee hollow" or "knee pit" is called the "Popliteal Fossa". I know ya love the big words so there ya go. Also I'm tired of hearing knee pit.
If he's releasing all of this gold to the public, makes you wonder what he's now teaching to the squad at Renzo's.

This man is like the yoda of jiu jitsu
Yoda is the John danaher for Jedi
Golden comparison
I'm a simple man. I see a new John Danaher video and I hit like.
Why do I feel so happy when John says “strangulation”?
closet psychopath dunno man.
Maybe it reminds your dad for you?

Pretty sure he majored in philosophy before he found Jiu Jitsu. He's basically an Australian wizard sent here to help us.

This is one of his shortest videos. Details for days!
@@JACKKiXi oh fudge, my bad.

Simple techniques but expounding results. I've never seen a triangle explained so fluidly. Thanks for the video.
Thanks! Glad you liked the video!
used this to catch my first two triangles from the bottom in class today!
4 years late but well done!!
It's nice to listen to instruction that you know is first rate

No arm across the belly. Very cool! I always felt like that arm was in the way and was making my triangles harder. Ill try this next class.
John Danaher gives you that extra bit more to get your submissions way more efficient. I can watch this lessons for hours. So much help 👍🏻👊🏻
OSS Professor John! Thank you for always enlightening us with your detail in the sports of jiujitsu.
If i just had listened to my parents, teachers and friends as cautiously as I listen to the Dana, I would have become the new Bill Gate by now...
He has such a good way of explaining things
You know you have a great instructor if he shows you the most basic moves and you learn something knew every time.

I'm far from a triangle guy but have used the double wrist control into a triangle on blue belts. It works, just have to set it up correctly.
Corey Fenton any advice on how to set it up?
@@playapapapa23 The most effective setup for me with double wrist is from letting them start to use the wedge to break my guard. Its a bitch to describe but they tend to ignore your grips because they want their hands there. I should do a video on it.
my opponent realizes to his horror how 'shockingly difficult' it is to escape this triangle :-)

Unbelievable legend
Amen to Danaher 🐐
Big up to my fellow New Zealander and All Blacks supporter John
When masters decide to revel a drop of their juice, I feel powerful too. Thanks 🙏
Never have I even considered locking a triangle at the extreme angle Mr Danaher does at 4:25. Maybe half that angle most of the time. Now, I know what I''l be trying next.
If you're flexible enough to do it, it is orders of magnitude tighter.
Best rash guard yet. Go the mighty ABs !Thanks John ! Osu
Check out the new aquaman rashguard
When he tries to pull away it's shockingly difficult. LOL
Excellent tutorial.
Fantastic!
Bring back Placido young legend
Vid brings out the creativity for sure!
Man. I have been saying the same about wrist control for 2 years!
what an amazing technique, thanks a lot you're the best
Good one sir
very slick and realistic
The Lex Luthor of BJJ, the man is an evil genius.
Mr Danaher Thank you
Guy is a genius
if john ever gets tired of jiu jitsu somehow he has the perfect voice for nature documentaries
After seeing this I MIGHT try hitting triangles again....LOL!
You got to look at Ryan Hall's hip bump triangle too, it's the best triangle set up.
4:14 I tried it and when I reached this posiotion my partner stacked me and passed my guard. How to stop him from doing that?
Im John Danaher, im here to kick ass at teaching you bjj and im always here to stare directly in to the camera.
Such a tight triangle. I have played with this but have a hard time getting the lock behind the head instead of over the shoulder. Seems like it is a different triangle than the normal one from guard.
Maaaan that hip replacement scar though...
I love every single tip coming from John Danaher, but I wonder if the final position of this triangle don't expose the face too much for punches.
Interesting technique. I have never tried to wedge the knee behind the head before.
What about guys who stack opponents who triangle. Can you do a video on that sir?
Stacking is not relevant at this triangle angle if you would notice. Stacking breaks the triangle because the shoulders move in breaking the legs figure of four, from this angle it wouldn't

anyone notice how he explains it twice with just as much detail.
The one dislike must be a 10th planet black belt.
Why do you say that?
10th planet is dog shit

Has he released his triangle DVD yet because I need it
Its on bjj fanatics website now I believe.
Kia Ora John! Live your All Blacks rash guard. Where do I get one?
Mind blown
So does John not advocate stopping at pit stop or diamond guard
can anyone tell me the benefit of figure four-ing the legs both before or after the angle creation? I've always locked up my triangles square to my partner, then made micro adjustments to finish.
2:00 collar tie setup
Wow. How do he add some much details
Rocking the ALL BLACKS rash guard #Respect
What if the opponents hand isnt on the floor? There is no longer a 1 in and 1 out...
2:57 is wholesome. :D
dude rested his head for like 3 secs this whole time

I will never use the work choke again. Only strangle.

is it possible JD is getting higher than Eddie ever got before training 😂
I'm a simple man, I see John Danaher and look for the PayPal button. Take my fucking money you slick, bald Kiwi hanniball.
This would never work in MMA because collar ties are done from punching range.
So this is where he got ADVANTAGEOUS from. Hahahahhaha

i dont see how anyone above purple is gonna let you get that complete angle before you lock it in iv never seen anyone do this in competition you give a guy an inch hes gonna take amile
Most guys don't let themselves get controlled like that. If you do.... you already lost at that lvl.
check out Gordon Ryan's triangle sub on Josh Barnett from Quintet. Not the same entry but the head control and angle change follow these principles.
@ No, I mean. If someone already has head and arm control with a closed guard, you already lost. Everything else is an eventuality.
Exactly, it's not realistic.

The "knee hollow" or "knee pit" is called the "Popliteal Fossa". I know ya love the big words so there ya go. Also I'm tired of hearing knee pit.
Crook of the knee would be the correct non medical term.
