Drill To Win Andre Galvao

An essential element of any grappling game – whether it be jiu-jitsu, wrestling, sambo or judo – is a sound foundation based on good positioning. It’s one thing to know submissions, but it’s another thing to be able to set your opponent up for these submissions.

Drill To Win is unique in that it provides the building blocks for your complete Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu game rather than presenting a series of finishing holds.

As with all Victory Belt publications, Drill To Win illustrates all moves clearly without room for misinterpretation so Andre Galvao’s instructions are easy to follow and keep up with.

From the moment you open this book and sign on with Andre as your personal coach, you will enjoy the way he has rationally and systematically provided a course in BJJ where you improve at a continuous but methodical pace over the 12 months he takes you under his wing. Galvao provides the opportunity for you to develop outstanding jiu-jitsu skills; your results depend entirely on how much you are prepared to adhere to this master’s instructions.

Drill To Win delivers an impeccable system for both takedowns and ground warfare in this all-business publication.
