"This is a two tape series covering the half guard and a number of different scenarios you may find yourself in. Throughout the tapes, [Jen] refers to each separate position or variation of your opponents hand, leg or body position as a reference point. In total the series covers 12 separate reference points and a number of variations that come about when executing the techniques...
... All in all this is a very comprehensive series covering the half guard and many of its variations. There were a number of positions and moves shown that I was particularly fond of and would link well with other stuff I have been taught or worked on from the bottom.
At the end of the series [Jen] explains that each different position in the half guard has a number of moves and variations from it and many instructors simply do not cover this. Instead they will teach one, maybe two techniques and then the student becomes disillusioned with why they cannot get this move to work.
This set is extremely complimentary to the other half guard tapes on the market. For example the Jean Jacque Machado series covers a number of complex sweeps but does not cover the more fundamental techniques such as guard retrieval. The [Jen] set sets a foundation within the half guard that should give the student a lot of sweeps and postitions to work with."
