MGInAction...

Yesterday i finally decided to join the website of Marcelo Garcia www.mginaction.com due to recent posts on variouse BJJ related forums. All the posts stated that this site could really help to boost your game at an affordable price. 

The price per month is 25 Dollar to access the site. If you calculate that in comparison to a private lesson which normally costs around 100 bucks and lasts for 60 minutes this is well worth the money. 

At a first glance I really have to say, that this is some sort of holy grail for BJJ and grappling. The site has more than 10'000 videos available at the moment and is very well structured as you can see from the picture below:

You can either browse through a certain position, down to the actual technique or just search for key words e.g. a technique you learned in class or something like that. What is also really nice, that you can create your own personal folder structure and put in the videos you like the most and that every video you have watched gets highlited. 

For me personally the "Fundementals" section is the one where I am going to spend my time for now and learn escapes, sweeps, transitions and submissions from every common position. 

Later on I might dig a little deeper into the X-Guard, which is Marcelos signature guard and see what I can get out of that. 

But its not only a database for moves as you get access to almost daily updated Gi and No-Gi sparring sessions of Marcelo and his students and him discussing different situations.

All in all, at a first glance, it is worth the money in my opinion.
