Chromecast wish list...
I like the app, just wish it was compatible with Chromecast so I can watch on TV as I practice on my dummy...

Yay
Great great app!
Response from developer
Thank you. Enjoy your BJJ journey! Cheers
Solid!!!
Excellent explanations, and solid techniques with great camera angles. I love the narration over the sparring sessions. I learn a lot from these, and they hold my interest more. Love the slow-mo on some of the moves. Such a great app.

Response from developer

Worth the money
If your starting off in bjj it's an awesome app look at it as 4 training sessions u can revise and review and always have to hand I have learned allot by this app alone wish it was a little cheaper but hey worth the money
Excellent
This is sooo good. Absolutely love it. Just open the first video for 2 mins and I have learnt something new. Laid out in an easy to find format. Videos and instructions are Roy's usual high quality. Love it.
Sickness!
I have a ton of apps and a few books for BJJ gi and nogi and this one is the best that I have seen. I use killer apps, MMA apps (all of them, iBJJ (very good) and all the Stephen Kesting apps from GrappleArts. as well as Sweeps from BJJ apps and a couple others and this one has the best transitions and game theory that I have seen because the moves are stacked on each other and give you a whole game to play from each position based on attempts and fails and opponent reaction. With a counter to counter style of teaching and great pointers along the way these are like mini seminars on key positions and fundamentals giving some whys and wherefores about common mistakes and understanding the position.
They are expensive and not EXHAUSTIVE by any means because you could spend days on just the Kimura alone or any position but these are a great start and for me being in BJJ for a few years now this was a great eye opener to why a position was failing for me or a particular transition so I found them to be great.
They are however not in the typical format so finding a particular move like the rolling kneebar will be tough since it was under the side mount escapes portion at the 5 min mark and everything is done smooth and at game pace from many angles but it moves quickly. So there is a lot of bang for your buck but if you want nothing more than a moves list this will drive you nuts.
BUT if you want to understand BJJ them this is what everyone else is leaving out. transitions. transitions transitions. That is the name of the game, NOT moves. but flow. How to be constantly improving your position and then submitting from a dominant position. These are great if you really want to learn and put in some real mat time. Enjoy.
