Most grapplers lose the match before it starts, standing there with no idea how to get the fight to the ground, and Zach Maslany built this course for exactly that problem.

Zach Maslany is a 10th Planet black belt under Eddie Bravo and a co-founder of 10th Planet Bethlehem, known for building competitors out of ordinary training partners.

In Wrestling For Jiu Jitsu, Maslany covers the takedowns that actually fit jiu jitsu: the throw by, foot sweeps, the single and the double, the ankle pick, the over hook and underhook game, and the front headlock with its submissions.

This isn't just a takedown course, it's wrestling filtered through what a grappler is allowed to do and what happens after the takedown.

Most grapplers lose the match before it starts, standing there with no idea how to get the fight to the ground, and Zach Maslany built this course for exactly that problem.

Maslany is a black belt under Eddie Bravo and co-founded 10th Planet Bethlehem, where he has spent years turning hobbyists into competitors. He teaches wrestling the way a jiu jitsu coach has to teach it, for people who will never have a college wrestling room behind them. Now he's putting that curriculum in one place.

Volume one is the offense: the path to the back, the throw by and slide by, foot sweeps, the single leg, the double leg and the crackdown, the ankle pick into arm bars, the over hook and underhook, and the front headlock with its submissions. Volume two is the fight before the takedown, handfighting, counters, live drills and the wrestle up from seated guard. Volume three connects it back to the ground: guillotines, back takes, granby rolls, octopus guard, half guard, X guard, butterfly and the truck. This isn't just a takedown course, it's wrestling filtered through what a grappler is allowed to do and what happens after the takedown.

Whether you compete or just want to stop pulling guard out of habit, the standing position stops being the part of the round you survive.

The live drills are the part people skip and the part that makes it stick. Maslany builds the constraint games that let you train handfighting and takedown entries without a wrestling team and without getting hurt.

If you've ever wondered why wrestlers control where a match happens while everyone else reacts, this is the material that closes that gap.

Learn how to take the fight to the ground and keep the advantage once you get there.
