Is anybody else known for the Turtle Guard, besides Telles?

The biggest thing w/ no gi turtle position is to be constantly in motion. Make your opponent work to stay on top of you. If he has time to settle he has time to think and to set up shit like darce chokes.

I just got a chance to watch it. What I got from it is the keys are to never settle to where your opponent can set anything up plus trapping an arm

I forgot Robson Moura also has a great Turtle Guard DVD in his series. His is also no go which is a plus. Its more focussed on getting back to guard than the Telles set.

Saulo Ribeiro Jiu Jitsu Revolution as well :)
