Introducing ‘Takedowns For The Rest Of Us’

SBG New Braunfels Head Coach Michael Heinz is building a strong reputation as a world class instructor across the globe.

In 2024 Michael successfully completed a seminar tour of Ireland which included headlining at the worled-renowned 17,000 square foot ‘Monster’ gym in Dublin. The ‘Monster’ gym is home to 2-time UFC Champion Conor McGregor, ADCC stand-out Gunnar Nelson, and various other UFC fighters.

Not only that, 2025 has been even bigger.

Coach Heinz kicked off the 2025 SBG UK Camp in Manchester, England prior to the release of his new BJJ Fanatics instructional ‘Takedowns For The Rest Of Us’ where he covers safe and effective takedowns for real people that aren’t wrestlers or acrobats.

Only the best of the best are selected by BJJ Fanatics Founders Bernardo Faria (5x Black Belt World Champion) and Michael Zenga (3rd Degree Black Belt) to teach on their platform.

Here you’ll find a practical, high-percentage system of takedowns for everyday practioners who aren’t so confident on their feet and either get taken down themselves or reluctantly pull guard. 

We're Thrilled about how well it's been received

This instructional has been a resounding success, attracting numerous 5-star reviews from across the globe:

Glyn P.
As a 46 year old 3rd degree BJJ black belt who has been training for 26 years, my ability to change levels is not what it once was. Heinz’s traditional approach to positional play in wrestling positions is highly reminiscent of Matt Lindland’s brilliant book “Dirty Boxing”. Heinz approach contains few if any “lifts” when taking people to the mat. We’ve tested it in the gym and it’s fantastic, especially against larger opponents. You won’t regret buying this!

Coach Mike has a way of simplifying things so that anyone can make it work. Always ensuring that the process will work on someone younger, stronger, and bigger than yourself.
Michael S.
Michael has managed to break down a complete standup system into easy to understand parts that not only work well on their own but together to create a whole series of dilemmas and trilemmas.
Rokas L.
Michael's unique approach to stand up grappling not only resonated with me much more than what I'm normally taught in class but it also changed my stand up game and moved it to the next level. Now I'm not just guessing what I should do, but have a methodical, well thought out approach on what to do in each situation.
Chris O.
This system is great for being a very approachable and easily implementable way of handling stand-up and getting simple takedowns that won’t be so stressful on your body.
