 Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu: Theory & Technique review:
5 stars (A must-have reference book for any Brasilian Jiu-Jitsu practicioner) - This book is wonderful. I use it everyday after class to see what I could have done wrong and what are the little things you can do to truly lock a submission or gain the sweeps you need. For example: I always had a problem quickly executing the 'Americana.' I would always end up getting it but not quick enough. I flipped through this book and discovered that if you rotate your opponents wrist slightly while applying the lock like you would reve a motorcycle, you create a much more painful lock causing the opponent to tap immediately. That tip alone helped me to actually master not only the Americana, but has helped my Kimuras as well.
And that is just one of hundreds of little pointers that can help your game. I have been doing BJJ for a few years now but I know that I will always refer to this book even if I reach Black Belt.
Also check out Carlson Gracie's book, 'For Experts Only.' It is another must own.
5 stars (Great for beginners) - When I started BJJ lessons 2 months ago I picked up this book right away. It really helped my learning curve in jiu jitsu and taught me to be more sensitive to every move my sparring partner made allowing me to better react. This book has really made a difference in my training. Now I give it to my classmates and they too all have said it has made a big difference.
5 stars (Great Book) - This book gives an interesting history of how Jiu Jitsu started and how it came to the Gracie family who perfected it. The techniques sections are great. The techniques are categorized by belt colors (easier techniques being under the white belt section, harder in the black). All the techniques are thoroughly explained and the pictures are in color and of good quality. There are 110 techniques explained in this text. My only complaint is that they don't have the techniques categorized based on what position you are in (mount, gaurd, side control, etc.). This is not such a big deal though. Great book for beginner and intermediate JJ enthusiasts.
