Helio Soneca's No Gi Half Guard dvd

By: Toddums on Monday, July 21, 2008

This dvd is all about being on bottom in the half guard, specifically for no gi grappling. The dvd covers basic positioning, sweeps and submissions.

I really enjoy this dvd, each move is covered in many different angles. The detail could be a bit more in depth, but overall it is very easy to follow.

I would recommend this dvd to anyone looking to add more sweeps and submissions to their half guard game. There are some advanced moves, but also some fairly basic ones as well, including some sweeps and submissions that I have not seen before from this position. There is a really basic move for taking the back that I learned from this dvd that I absolutely love.

Bonus: Helio's demonstration partner looks a lot like Chaz.

5/5 taps

Love the half guard- can you reverse what he says and use it for the top game?

Being attacked is like being asked a question- if you answer right you won't get asked anymore questions.

Lindsay- I use the half-guard sweeps all the time from the top. Maybe I should stop doing that.....

Right leg hospital-Left leg cemetary.
