5.0 out of 5 stars An EXCELLENT Opportunity to Improve Your Jiu-Jitsu Game! September 6, 2012

I know there are countless Jiu-Jitsu books that offer to help improve your closed guard but this is the real deal. There's a reason Kid Peligro is internally regarded as one of the top Jiu-Jitsu instructors in the world and it shows in every page. I was fortunate enough to attend a seminar with Kid this summer and when I got this book I was thrilled to see such detailed explanations of the techniques he shared at the seminar. This book really is like having a private lesson with Kid himself. I would highly recommend it to anyone, of any level, looking to improve his or her bottom game.
