Bernado’s humility is inspiring. You’d never guess he’d been a world champ from listening to him speak/learn.
He's stoked to have a long line of the world's greatest coming to visit him.
I agree. Bernardo gets my respect for providing a forum where ideas can be presented for review.
Right? Asking questions and listening very interested too!
I know I literally had no idea for so long lol, all I saw was his videos until he was on Jordan Teaches JJ one time and smashed Jordan
4:05 "Now, if Bernardo says the ABC"
*Moves frantically*
Gotta love that man 🤣
Bernardo forgot he was supposed to use English and said it in Jiu-jitsu instead
@@juraj3315 LOl!
Bernardo simply thought that Danaher was speaking metaphorically because he usually uses intricate explanations.
Danaher is a great person helping the special needed
Guys REWATCH the video after applying it in a roll. I just rewatched it after like a month and realized like 5 things I was doing wrong.
One thing that makes John Danaher an amazing coach is the fact that he doesn't just teach techniques, he teaches WHY techniques work. With that being said, if you are in a rolling session, and you can understand the biomechanics of what each move is accomplishing, you can better teach students as to what nuances they can adjust to better make the moves more productive. That's the real goal that all coaches should strive for.
too many coaches don't explain the why and when, its the 101 of learning faster and with quality...
His classes probably run like 3 hours over schedule and are worth every minute if I had to guess
I've studied under John my whole life and for the first 11 years I saw him in Gi pants twice. For Ceremonies.
Is he primarily known for no gi?
Joe Friday Yes he’s the coach for the DDS
@@dannyou2043 I knew he was but I didn't know if he coached a lot in the gi too. Those are some dangerous guys that's under him.
Hahahahahahahaha 😆
@@Joe_Friday his Gi game and level of instruction is as good in the Gi as it is in no Gi. He just doesn’t like Gi pants.
I’ve sat through a lot of Jiu Jitsu classes and no one has ever explained this simple escape Better than this.
I am a BJJ black belt, and I have to say that Johns coaching explanations are the very best I've ever come across.
Good work guys!
John Danaher is such a gift to the BJJ community. Wish him all the success in the world.
T Le 👍👍👍
Superb. The details about the structures - perpendicular alignment, how to wedge/pin, where the weak spots are and how to work your way out... this is why Danaher is the man, as is Bernardo for brining this content!
Neil Watson thanks so much for the compliment Neil, I appreciate it! 👍👍
I agree, John's attention to detail and the way he analyzes things is brilliant
He makes it a science , and it’s beautiful
Which all goes right out the window when punches start flying.
@@ronmoore7656 This is an instructional for BJJ which is a competitive combat sport , punches are illegal in that sport , if you want to see how jiu jitsu works with punches then watch MMA fighters like Jacare , Maia , Burns , Oliviera ...the entire ufc is filled with BJJ fighters
I've never witnessed such intelligence in BJJ. I'm almost convinced this guy could have been a double PhD in another life
@@gordonthefreeman PhD student in philosophy at NYU
@@gordonthefreeman check out his interview on Joe Rogan
@@gordonthefreeman and a Professor
He went to an IV league school.
@@hwago123 An intravenous school? That's some Matrix shit right there.
John Danaher was a professor at Colombia before he started learning BJJ.
No wonder he is a phenomenal teacher. Thanks for sharing.
Seriously, who the hell downvotes a video like this one ? This was a masterpiece
Marcello Lins probably only people who say “bjj doesn’t work against multiple opponents”
The people who tried and didn't do it right lol. Went right home and downvoted and made shitty comments.
I was wondering that too
Josh Fabia
The best video I've seen on escaping side control by far, I'm guessing there's 57 people out there who got smashed by bald guys and can't get over it,
us bald guys can be relentless
That's brilliant @martin w
Bernardos humility and attitude should be an example to anyone starting/practicing bjj. We need more people like you sir 🙏
this is so helpful. i get stuck in side control all the time, and i've been wasting so much energy trying to hip bump or shrimp or something just to get some space or create a scramble. obviously hip bump is not effective because your opponent has taken your legs out of the equation! danaher's brilliance never ceases to inspire. thank you john and bernardo.
This is probably the best side control escape video I've seen on youtube, thanks for the content. Oss!
It’s not. The way he puts his frames in is horrible
@@MrPhilipRoberts can you type in the link of the best side mount escape on youtube? The one better than this.
I'm 45 and blue belt. Just watched this video yesterday and tried it today rolling with a more advanced partner. While rolling, the 2-3 times he ended up on side control I was able to use this technique and get myself to half guard. AMAZING
I haven't been able to get the right leg to connect to the elbow to get to it. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong but people seem to be able to get enough leverage where I can't get in. What did you do?
Single most stable position for pinning is - 90 degree
Spines parallel is less stable - that's why top mount is less stable
1st -Understand the kind of pin opponent is doing on you.
2nd - Understand what are you fighting against
a) Body weight and gravity aren't the only thing keeping a pin stable
3rd - Basis of a pin
a) Using own body as a set of wedges* around your opponent's body,
to inhibit movement
b) Bodyweight is the means to reinforce the wedges
Goal to get out of pin - regardless of side control type
a) Get inside opponent's wedges
Step 1: Reduce your vulnerability - put closest knee in pocket of his hip
a) submissions -
b) mount -
Step 2: Get inside his wedges
a) Best place to start - near side hip
How: Take near side elbow and out it in the hip gap
If too close, then turn away a little to make space for elbow to get in
b) Join same side knee and elbow together
How: Place near side knee at opponent's hip - hip is entry point
Our knee will always beat opponent's knee at the hip
Move inch by inch outward with far leg and enter near knee (shrimp)
into opponent's hip (Hip is the entry point)
Opponent cannot follow due to elbow inside from step 2(a)
Then push inside when there's enough space
c) Form a V shaped frame using elbow and knee
Strong defense against mount or pressure by weight
d) Join both legs together as another V
e) Push with both legs against opponent's body
f) If opponent tries to regain control by controlling head and
Walk past our knee to re-pin us
Then : Get inside grip by near side hand as a frame
on wedge of opponent's biceps
g) No shift inside knee outside opponent's body
Then : We have our spines aligned with out opponent's spine
h) Get inside arm hooks, push opponent's hips with legs to
get own back off the floor
Remember to have inside hooks before trying to sit up
Then: Retain a butterfly guard
NOTE:
1. Whose limbs are inside whose limbs - These forms the wedges
2. Bottom player's no. 1 priority is to make space
3. Grabbing gi from bottom can hold our self from moving - not
the time to grab opponent's gi.
4. Time to push people away with elbows and forearms
*Wedge:
a piece of wood, metal, etc. having one thick end and tapering to a thin edge, that is driven between two objects or parts of an object to secure or separate them.
"the door was secured by a wedge"
thank you!
Jesus...just Throw him of of you
Gay stuff

@@gwood701 hahahaha
Wow, as a beginner in BJJ this is GOLD! Being a slimmer build i frequently find myself on the bottom in side control and always feel like im hopeless when i'm there. Can't wait to try these techniques!
Professor Danaher explanation of pinning and wedges made understaning the escape so clear. They must have waiting lists for his classes. 8 years of BJJ and this is the first time I heard this explanation. Awesome 👍.
There's something so heartwarming about seeing John Danaher get a grip on the gi...
Haha never seen him wear a gi till now, so it took a minute to get used to xD
@@nawraskhalil2712 Is he mostly known for no gi?
@@Joe_Friday yes
6:56 "Bernardo is completely inside me" ;)
I was goong to say the same thing. Hooray for immature people, we are the best.
This was the sexiest episode.
damn you beat me to it ^^
Don’t ruin BJJ by those thought processes please 🙏
haha
Powerful bald Jesus.

I was pinned like this a few times in class and he's completely right about the wedges. The blue belt with tight wedges made me considerably less mobile than the white belt who just put all his weight on me.
Wow! Had never looked at side control from a wedge perspective before. Prof. Danaher's breakdown is incredible. Can't wait to start adding this.
Holy shit.... this is blowing my mind. Been struggling with side escapes for years, this is brilliant
I was at a introductory beginner class yesterday and we were shown the very basics and put in positions to try to escape, just to learn how it feels and the mentality of staying calm. I was being held in side control and I was completely stuck. It was fascinating. I'm pretty strong but I was completely helpless. I also managed to hold the other guy in side control and I experienced the difference of using my body weight to hold him down vs. using my body as wedges to hold him down. In the end it was really cool how I could spend almost no energy and he was not escaping.
Danaher puts things in a way where, you may not understand the true principal of what you are doing in say, side control. And then, he loops in all you were taught which holistically didn't make sense to you at the time, and you have an epiphany because you already physically knew the concept, but you never critically thought about it, or heard it verbalized it in such an eloquent way. The wedges description really cemented it for me. His level of mastery in understanding the art is mind-blowing.

Mr Danaher is an amazing teacher! What drives me crazy about BJJ, taking apart it's physical aspect, is it's strategical, mental and tactic part. It's like playing chess. A really difficult and challenging art to domain.
This is such amazing detail as to the WHY. I've been continually getting stuck pinned with side control. I was told to shrimp by my instructors but I was missing the key detail of what the end goal of the shrimping was for. Now I understand it's to give space for the knee to enter after my forearm begins the frame. I have long legs so its extremely hard for me to recover guard after my opponent passes. I'm going to be able to implement this knowledge and drill it until I'm able to work better against side control.
Your instructors would’ve told u shrimping creates space
in all the years of my training i have never seen detailed instruction like this... amazing
The turtle neck rash guard is a bold choice! Definitely appreciate the material from Professor Danaher in the gi!
Side Control Escape. Supreme overlord john danaher. Wow, thats an amazing combination of 2 sentences.
Noone At all I agree Noone, he combines the techniques very very well...
This is my first public comment but I had to comment because this was beautiful. Taking something basic and fundamental practiced a thousand times and explaining it in a way to have it making more sense than it ever has.
Alex Cochrane thanks for the support Alex! 👍
@@BernardoFariaBJJ I don't know how to DM from TH-cam but I had made a meme of you a long time ago when I bought your Battle Tested Half Guard DVD and want to show you now that you want to see Faria memes lol. You'll laugh pretty hard I hope.
John: "Say ABC"
Bernardo: "hgrmpfjfg"
Love John's systematic analysis and breaking everything down to principles. Changes the whole game.
This is beyond top tier instruction; seriously, what we have here is pure elegance. Thanks for sharing.
Lone Wolf glad you liked and I agree 100% with you! Ossss
Like a diamond!
Danaher hypnotizes me lol I’m saying “yes sir” as he’s talking 🤣😂🤣😂
...Data's getting used on this one boys.
@mu5lim k
Watching John you need 3 things:
1) a calming medicine so when you get blown away, you can still take in information
2) a dictionary. The guy uses words so particular, I have never heared of them.
3) a bucket to catch the mouthwater that will drip from your jaw, while you're looking forward to use the moves on your training partners.
Bernardo reveals the secret of yoko shiho gatame or Side pinning. It is not the weight initially but the wedging. I use Yoko mostly in pinning. I stayed up on both knees, and the other wedges demonstrated. It requires a full understanding of this way of pinning and I was able to pin some really skilled opponents. Great video.
I tried this live last night and one piece I think John coulda clarified a little better for me anyway , is that when inching away with my knee at my opponents hip , my knee must stay glued to his hip , so he can't re-adjust, thus preventing my beginning of guard recovery . I missed that part , but I think the bridging up and making space to recover guard is only good if your significantly stronger then your opponent , the bench pressing bridge , to get on my hip never went well for me , and led to gassing out my arms, Like Danaher Says the "wedges" you out wedge the wedges open them up , I think we'll have much more success being side control by studying and implementing this video , it's great thanks Bernardo !
I was practising Bjj for 3 years, trainning twice a day. I learn more listening to Danaher than those 3 years I spent. Some Bjj blackbelts should be humble enough to reconsider their position after watching the Quality and knowledge Danaher has.
Some people could be world champions but horrible teachers. Teaching is hard, cut them some slack
Excellent and clear instruction as always from John Danaher. Also appreciate the Renato Laranja level of stripes on the belt...
just not sure why, Renato does it as a comedy bit but maybe disrespectful by "Joe"
The principle of spine(s) alignment and how that effects control is so basic, but so profound. I feel like that single fact alone is going to change my side control/escape completely. Thank you!
03:42 "You can't really see this because my..." * checks notes * "...gi is in the way."
Took him a moment to remember what it was called haha
That's pretty harsh it was like 1 second or less 😅
Also, brand new Fuji gi, belt, and stripes 😂
Fantastic explanation thanks for making these. I’ve been getting stuck in this position all the time. I now understand how to start the process of getting out. You made everything make sense.
Danaher the Systemizer! Thanks a lot, John and Bernardo, for sharing all this detailed knowledge!
This was amazing detail and instruction. I cannot wait for Coach Danaher's Gi instructional to be done!
Joseph Shaw its coming out great Joseph! We from BJJ Fanatics cant wait to launch it too...
@@BernardoFariaBJJ nice very nice
"Going from perpendicular to parallel". Wow. That's crucial detail. Wish I learned that sooner than later. True Master Danaher.
Never seen this Danaher before but I love the way he explains it as if he's a university professor, proper teacher
Incredibly explained. Dispelling the folklore of pressure and gravity with an incredibly succinct demonstration was an incredible foundation. Filling the folklore void with a factual explanation of the components of an effective pin was enlightening. You provided further insight by Tearing down, piece by piece, the components of effectiveness.
Truly helpful both from a defensive and offensive perspective. Thank you.
The thing I find the most amazing is how he explains the fundamental aspect yet he teaches without running out of breath...
6:57 "Bernardo is completely inside me" - Johnny 👀
Hi John and Bernardo, please release the full series about the basics in the Gi as soon as you can. Waiting for it is hard, you posted the picture on Instagram months ago 😅
“I think at this point everyone knows who he is”. I paused the video and googled who he was. High acclaim as an instructor apparently. After watching the video, I honestly couldn’t agree more. Wow.
And again,another Proof that my instructor is amazing because He teached this to us exactly Like danaher explained it in fundamentals class
Love your channel Bernardo. Thanks so much for working with BJJ Greats like Jon and bringing quality content to youtube.
Joe is so articulate about how he explains the process👏 Easier to follow and understand 👍
Great video! I heard John Danaher is preparing a Gi version DVD. Looking forward to it.
I started BJJ 3 months ago.. I've been struggling getting out of side control... this will help me . Thanks
Youve got a new subscriber
Great info and detail. I,m a 54 year old 2 stripe white belt and looking forward to the go further faster video . Thanks for the freebe
how's the training coming along old timer? I'm 52 and looking to start back into training again.
Body weight chest on chest is preached so much, crazy how John changes that perspective
This worked like magic tonight! I was so surprised and the higher belt was surprised as well.
Thank you professors! My Daughter has just begun her BJJ journey and we enjoy watching technique vids together.
Level of analytic thinking and the teaching is almost frightening ! More JohnD videos, please !
Get inside your opponents wedges. That's the best advice I have heard on this topic.
Wow, what a clear and simple explanation. Great speaking. Crystal clear pronunciation
Watched this in the carpark 15min before class. Tried it on 5 different peeps and it worked every time.
Such simple concepts.
I’m a white belt, I waste so much energy trying to power out of side control.. this is amazing thank you
Epic. Maybe the most detailed break down of an elbow escape I've heard
This guy is no doubt one of the best couches ever. Hats off!
I am super pumped for Mr. Danaher's video course on classical Gi Jiu-Jitsu
Vladimir Kozyrev Osssss we from BJJ Fanatics cant wait to launch it! Osss
The way that Danaher teaches is phenomenal
Thank you so much john and bernardo,side control is the place im in always,and this helped get me out alot.🙏
Very Analytical and Scientific explanation ;Ingenious from John Danaher as Usual .
i absolutely love johns systematic technical approach! gives an untalented noob like me some hope that this stuff is actually learnable 🤣
Very impressive analysis and breakdown of the concepts and keys behind the technique as opposed to majority instructions that aims in accumulation of many techniques WITHOUT COMPREHENSION.
John is indeed a high caliber black belt of not only techniques but more important of concepts and comprehension.
Brilliant ! "Don't want to do the same work twice" can't agree more. I can't wait to use this against the beefeaters at my gym!
Thanks, I recently started BJJ I’m a white belt and I need all the knowledge I can absorb !
Best side-control video ever. Thanks gentlemen.
might be the first side control shrimping escape i've seen where they don't tell you to frame inside the upper body with your left arm
Thats how I've always been told
Good point...
Same. Defenses are becoming more complex. Also note that the framing is for beginners. Less to think about.
He didn't really use the left arm that much that I could see at least not until he started retaining guard. Would this escape have been even easier had he created a frame or something with his left arm?
John Danaher is a Genius!
Thanks for this. Did this today in class.
disable the wedges. This white belt will need to use this. Thank you for the great video
Prof. Danaher will make you think about why and how to do it. It's fascinating.
Wow what an awesome video. As a beginning white belt, I’ve often felt totally stuck when pinned in side control
This is the best side control escape I’ve seen
This is a great way of making space and escaping side control. Thank you Prof JD and Bernardo. Oss. 🥋
This is how I would imagine BJJ would be taught as a course at Oxford University … Professor Danaher PhD in BJJ LOVE IT
I absolutely love how John explains these techniques and it has helped me tremendously. If I can just make one suggestion - it would be cool to use a microphone, because sometimes it's very hard to hear him =)
John Danaher the man who keeps blowing my mind and makes me want to roll all day everyday. Just awesome detailing i love it thanks guys 👊🏻🥋👍🏻
It feels like a found the cheat sheet!!! Thanks John & Bernardo!
I've never saw this kind of side control escape. Really interesting. I will try it
Eagle glad you liked! Osss
Thanks Bernardo! Can't wait for this new instructional DVD!
kitman thanks for the support ! 👍👍
Loved the way Bernardo said ABC when he had weight on him. Really looking forward to john's fundamentals series perhaps more than all his others
NaruIchiLuffy hahahaha I was dying there... Thanks for the support...
@@BernardoFariaBJJ you the best thing for bjj for provided us info god bless you Bernardo
Every Danaher video is the same. "If you do XYZ the wrong way, it looks like this." Yeah, all of those "it looks like this," - that's me, most days while rolling lmao. Can't get enough of his videos. He's easily the best instructor on the planet in terms of being able to convey the technique clearly and concisely.
With terminology like "Put your limbs inside Bernardo" You can see why people think Jiu-jitsu is gay!
Great instructional. Helped a alot. 🤙🙌
"Bernardo's completely inside me", well, this technique suddenly escalated😂.
"Now let's get Bernardo's big ass on top and lets figure out a way to get inside". The meme clips are as glorious as the teachings.
@@FrontiersOfTheFuture Ahem..Don Janaher clarified he meant gettin inside...his wedges
I can't wait for the DVD !
