“The way he words it helped me understand it even better.”

I really like how Corey lays out the most important concepts of grappling. I think this course is a resource for any student. It’s the instructional they will always be able to come back to.. One small example of something that I actually got out of this instructional was the way Corey describes the concept of base. It seems like something I already know, but something about the way he words it helped me understand it even better. I thought that was really cool.

“In person or online to take advantage of every second you can!”

Corey has been a big influence in my jiu jitsu journey recently, with small yet important and basic fundamental concepts he thoroughly explains, he is able to create creative and technical jiu jitsu thinkers. I would highly recommend that anyone that can learn from Corey in person or online to take advantage of every second you can and write stuff down! I very much look forward to purchasing his instructional and watching it develop my game in many aspects I did not see beforehand.
