 Ageless Jiu Jitsu – Top Game No-Gi

A systematic blueprint for top control that leverages technique over athleticism — designed for older or less athletic practitioners.

 Course Overview

Danaher’s Ageless Jiu Jitsu: Top Game No-Gi provides over 8 hours of structured instruction—ideal for grapplers who may lack speed or explosiveness. It focuses on building a pressure-based, energy-efficient top game that wears down younger, more athletic opponents.

 What You’ll Learn

• Half Guard Top Game: entries like toreando, scoop knee drives, tight-waist grips, bodylock, over-under, underhook techniques.
• Pinning Control: side pin stability, mount & knee-on-belly, rear mount, power half-nelson, top turtle; energy-draining grip/wedge variations.
• Submissions: American lock, Kimura, North-South strangle, Katagatame, RNC—high-percentage finishes tailored to older grapplers.
• Stand-Up & Takedowns: efficient grip fighting, kuzushi, and low-risk entries to establish dominant top control.

 Who Is This Course For?

• Older or less athletic grapplers seeking energy-efficient, pressure-based top game.
• Anyone wanting to tire opponents with control rather than speed.
• Practitioners seeking simplified, high-percentage entries that don’t rely on athleticism.
