The Collection
One teacher. One library. One path from white to black.
Most students piece together their jiu jitsu education from a dozen different sources — half-watched YouTube videos, instructional packages collecting dust, scattered seminars they paid for once and never returned to.
The Roy Dean Legacy Collection is the alternative: a single trusted teacher, every belt level mapped out, every concept explored in depth, every seminar archived — all in one library that grows with you.
Buy it once. Own it forever. Watch the same lesson at white belt, at blue belt, at black belt — and notice something different each time. That's how a real curriculum works.

Who It's For
One library. Four kinds of student.
01
Serious Students
If you've been hopping between BJJ Fanatics releases, YouTube channels, and your local instructor's opinion, this is the antidote. One library. One voice. One philosophy. One path from white to black.
02
Instructors & Coaches
Coaches use the Belt Requirements series as a structural backbone for their own teaching. Every video is a curriculum tool you can return to before any class.
03
Practitioners Training in Isolation
Whether you're traveling for work or training at an academy without high-belt depth, the Collection is the corner of the room where the answers live.
04
Older Grapplers & Lifelong Students
Roy's focus on leverage, timing, and the soft side of the art makes every video re-watchable across decades. A 50-year-old gets different value than a 25-year-old from the same lesson — that's the point.
A Champion's Word
"I found the way you teach is very detail oriented, which is a great quality in an instructor. I also enjoyed watching the way you sparred with people in seminars, especially with the kids. Overall I would recommend your DVD."Marcelo Garcia 3× ADCC Submission Wrestling Champion

What Practitioners Say
Praise, by pillar.
I found the way you teach is very detail oriented, which is a great quality in an instructor. I also enjoyed watching the way you sparred with people in seminars, especially with the kids. Overall I would recommend your DVD.
This is one of the best BJJ instructional videos I've seen in years! These principles apply to Brazilian jiu-jitsu, submission grappling, MMA or any other grappling art.
I've personally seen quite a few white to blue belt instructional videos, but this one has set a new standard. The instruction is clear and concise and the production itself is top notch.
I was flabbergasted by the awesome technique that Roy presents in his videos. His attention to detail is outstanding! The word that comes to mind when thinking about Roy's Jiu-Jitsu technique is the word beautiful.
If you're studying Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, this is the resource you want. Roy Dean's world championship in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu speaks for itself. There is simply no doubt that he is a master of the art.
For $45, this DVD is easily worth the cost and is worth the equivalent of many private lessons with a good BJJ black belt instructor.
Best DVD Set I've Seen. I bought this DVD set years back and still refer back to it regularly. Roy is clear and to the point without over explanation or distractions — which I've seen with other sets.
Consider it the most well thought out two-hour private lesson on no gi grappling you'll ever get, at one quarter the price.
The guy's a gift — articulate, focused, detailed, no-hype. I'm into my 50s and commenced the grappling stuff about 18 months ago. This DVD is a Godsend.
Roy Dean's martial arts credentials, keen philosophical insight, and truly exceptional artistic vision make him one of the few people on the planet capable of creating a product like this.
The more you improve, the more you will get out of No Gi Essentials. It is quite possibly Roy Dean's best DVD to date — an impressive achievement considering the high standard he has set in the past.
I find myself mesmerized just watching him move. It's like watching a beautiful and graceful dance. The seminar by Professor Harris alone was worth the price of the DVD.
Roy Dean is the real deal and his material provides a fantastic, strong set of fundamentals.
I found his teaching and movements just a constant and beautiful flow. It was so good and inspiring that I will be buying all of his other DVDs.
This is Roy Dean's most advanced, most informative and most sophisticated DVD set yet. It's absolutely packed with techniques, combinations and details that will take your game to the next level.
Paradigm shifting. This set has changed the way I practice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and I'm glad that I purchased it.
Roy Dean's videos are truly instructional — and inspirational.
Roy is an excellent teacher. He takes complex techniques and breaks them down. Makes no gi easy to learn.
Roy Dean has created a stylish intersection of modern grappling and the traditional martial arts. All grapplers and MMA students should be required to watch this DVD.
This DVD is unique in that it is not just an instructional teaching the basic positions of BJJ. Experienced practitioners can learn plenty from it, but it's bigger than that — it's about the Theory and Practice of Jiu Jitsu.
What you expect from Sensei Dean is philosophy and knowledge wrapped up and delivered in palatable and easily understood terms. This is perfect for any white belt.
Outstanding DVD series, buy them all.
Invaluable Martial Arts Resource. This is probably one of the most unique and valuable resources available in the grappling arts — I highly recommend it for all martial artists, novice and expert alike.
This is my favorite dvd of the whole collection. The additional arts covered that relate to BJJ are important. Wrist locks and stand up game tips are awesome.
I've personally seen quite a few white to blue belt instructional videos, but this one has set a new standard. The instruction is clear and concise and the production itself is top notch.
I think that any blue belt that became proficient at the techniques shown would have an excellent base from which to pursue further study of BJJ, and he would be able to justify and defend his ranking against all comers.
I was flabbergasted by the awesome technique that Roy presents in his videos. His attention to detail is outstanding! The word that comes to mind when thinking about Roy's Jiu-Jitsu technique is the word beautiful.
Highly Recommended! Roy's explanations are wrapped in experience, a calming philosophy of patience, and an overall focus on technique over strength and speed.
Delivers as promised. Already having my blue belt, I knew most of the material, but Roy is such a great instructor and so technical that I was still able to learn new material from a new perspective.
Very good introduction to BJJ concepts. Roy Dean first spent some time talking about the concept of position in BJJ, then showed techniques specific to improving or maintaining your position.
Excellent instruction. This is a very nicely done, well thought out instructional DVD. All techniques are clearly explained, repeated multiple times and shown from different view points.
Roy Dean shows the blue belt techniques in a smooth and elegant way. He teaches techniques in groups of similar techniques like takedowns, armlocks etc, which makes it easy to concentrate on one group at a time.
Final step. Excellent walk through and execution. Videography and knowledge was great.
The short version is: WOW! Buy it!
This is one of the best BJJ instructional videos I've seen in years! The best thing is that these principles apply to Brazilian jiujitsu, submission grappling, MMA or any other grappling art.
Roy Dean takes a conceptual approach, where the techniques fit into an overall philosophy for purple belt — the need to learn how to combine techniques into a flowing sequence.
A great learning tool. I'm a big fan of Roy Dean's DVDs and I have all of them. They are very well produced and Roy communicates his points very well.
Nice continuation from his Blue Belt video. I like his analogy that at blue belt you have learned a lot of words — now at purple belt it's time to start making sentences.
Worth 10 private lessons. Roy, as always, does a great job of teaching BJJ, not just telling you BJJ — this DVD is easily worth the cost.
Outstanding!! Again Mr. Dean has put together another great video. His videos are the right info at the right time.
Advancing through connection. He demonstrates the importance of being able to link techniques to advance your BJJ game, and most importantly the mental aspect of what makes a purple belt.
This is Roy Dean's most advanced, most informative and most sophisticated DVD set yet. It's absolutely packed with techniques, combinations and details that will take your attacks to the next level.
Great higher level theory of GJJ. I loved how things were explained and how the bonus videos showed the instructor still training with students.
Move forward conceptually. I'm a fan of Roy Dean's clean style and his clear communication — this is another fine production which serves as a valuable resource in my library.
This explains pressure and efficiency in great detail. Fully understanding concepts is the key to becoming an excelling BJJ practitioner.
Paradigm shifting. Brown Belt Requirements is well balanced between being advanced and being accessible. This set has changed the way I practice Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
If you're studying Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, this is the resource you want. Roy Dean's world championship in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu speaks for itself. There is simply no doubt that he is a master of the art.
Best DVD Set I've Seen. I bought this DVD set years back and still refer back to it regularly. Roy is clear and to the point without over explanation or distractions — which I've seen with other sets.
Roy Dean's videos are truly instructional — and inspirational.
If you want smaller details on making your armbar better, tightening your footlocks, or even a few more ideas than you already have, this is a bargain — the most well thought out 2hr private lesson on no gi grappling you'll ever get, at one quarter the price.
The more you improve, the more you will get out of No Gi Essentials. It is quite possibly Roy Dean's best DVD to date, an impressive achievement considering the high standard he has set in the past.
Roy is an excellent teacher. He takes complex techniques and breaks them down. Makes no gi easy to learn. I wish there were a part 2.
A must have. Another excellent product by Sensei Dean. I have been able to perform every technique that is shown in the video in live rolls, so you know this is the real deal.
Great for beginners. Roy Dean always has very professional and insightful instructions to his techniques. If you are a new jiu jitsu player this DVD set is worth the money, no question.
The guy's a gift — articulate, focused, detailed, no-hype. I'm into my 50's and commenced grappling about 18 months ago, and this DVD has been a Godsend.
I found the way you teach is very detail oriented, which is a great quality in an instructor. I also enjoyed watching the way you sparred with people in seminars, especially with the kids. Overall I would recommend your DVD.
Roy Dean is a black belt product of the Roy Harris style of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, methodical, meticulous, and masterful. The DVD even earned praise from the likes of Marcelo Garcia.
There are a lot of high percentage techniques shown, including submissions, escapes, sweeps and counters — the production values are excellent: clear filming, good sound and lighting, full DVD menus and so on.
What makes Roy Dean's DVDs different is Roy Dean. I find myself mesmerized just watching him move. It's like watching a beautiful and graceful dance.
Awesome. This DVD is different from other BJJ DVDs. I found his teaching and movements just a constant and beautiful flow — so good and inspiring that I bought all of his other dvds.
Excellent First Release. Roy Dean's combination attacks from the guard position and Roy Harris' Open Guard control and passing counters could have each been their own DVD.
This has everything! Better production quality than most every BJJ DVD on the market. It has good instruction as well as a little something to get just about anyone inspired.

Why It's Different
Not another platform. A single body of work.
01
One voice
Most platforms are stitched together from dozens of competing teachers with contradicting philosophies. The Collection is a single coherent body of work from one black belt under Roy Harris.
02
Cross-art depth
Roy holds black belts in BJJ, Judo, Aikido, and Japanese Jujutsu. The instructionals draw from all four arts — leverage, timing, balance, and softness rendered in a way that pure BJJ resources can't replicate.
03
Built for re-watching
Students return to the same Purple Belt Requirements video at black belt and see things they couldn't see the first time. That's the test of real teaching.
04
Production quality
Each release is shot, edited, and structured like a polished film — not raw seminar footage. Watching is part of the pleasure.
What Students Are Saying
Trusted across every belt.
The Teacher
Roy Dean
Roy Dean is a 4th degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, with additional black belts in Judo, Aikido, and Japanese Jujutsu. He earned his BJJ black belt under the progressive teacher Roy Harris and has spent decades treating the gentle art as something to be understood and lived as a budo, or warrior's way.
The Roy Dean Legacy Collection is the distillation of that life of practice — every instructional he's produced, every seminar he's taught, all in one library, with every future release included.
One Library. One Teacher.
Built once.
