"This is supposed to be fun, don't take it too serious and let your ego get in the way" This is gold! I needed this right now!

Hope you guys like the edit and animations in this video! We worked so hard on this one aha.

1. Drill (with a purpose) 2. Do your homework (learn outside of mat time) 3. Ask your training partners how they’re beating you 4. Record your rolls 5. Be consistent

Wow thank you so much Jordan! Someone told me you mentioned my channel and I feel very honored! ❤ Subscribed and I hope to learn some new things from you!! 🤙 Coach Brian

#3 is my favorite and I just started doing this. There was this one purple belt that always swept me from butterfly and I just asked him "what do other people do to defend your butterfly guard that give you trouble?" He gave me some fantastic tips that really helped me! It was great having someone that literally coached me through beating his best guard. Now that's a fantastic gym culture!

Loved the line "you're going to be somewhere in 10 years, you might as well be a black belt" puts it into such great perspective and can apply to so many things in life not just BJJ. Cheers for the videos. 6 months into my jiu-jitsu journey at 30 yrs old :-)

As a blue belt that’s started to feel like my improvement is stagnating, this video was so helpful. Love this channel and the way you explain your techniques in rolls🤝

This is stuff I tell everyone all the time. Focus on guard passing/retention. Also, your point about watching lots of videos on the same topic. This has been invaluable for me. You find commonalities that ultimately help you understand the underlying concepts and each teacher gives you a different perspective.

This video is phenomenal. I’m going to be coming back to this one over and over again for a while, thank you!

Never clicked a video so fast

Appreciate the shoutout! You have the best video quality on KZfaq and your hard work is appreciated 🙌🏼

The best advice on KZfaq for jiujitsu. It took me years to figure these few simple things out. Keep it coming Jordan!!!

Yep, going obsessive on videos of a specific position or move is my number one learning method. After class, if something was a struggle I'll binge every video I can find and try again next class and the improvement is night and day. Your vids have been pivotal in this process.

The editing in this is incredible. You guys did your research in viewer retention. And of course, the substance was amazing too. Thanks.

So humble and so informative. Subscribed!

great stuff as always

Awesome video, always look forward to these😁👊

Awesome advice as always! Thanks Jordan👊

These are incredibly valuable tips. You are a jiu jitsu inspiration. Thanks for sharing back with those that are coming up in the community.

Great video. Gracias Tio Jordan!

Awesome video coach!

The 🐐 of instructionals. Thanks for always trying to help us out!

Glad to have found your channel Jordan! Great advice, looking forward to learning from you.

Homework is real good stuff. I took advices from Jordan which is never letting your opponent grab your head or giving them underhook. I always think these two things when I’m in guard and also when I’m top position I’m focusing on those two things. Thanks Jordan.

Another valuable video! Thanks!

Just putting out banger after banger! 🔥🔥 My biggest challenge in Jiujitsu has been consistency. I work a very labor intensive job so many days after work all I want to do is go home and rest for the next day. I’ll have months where I let that side of me win, but then I’ll have other months where I’m extremely disciplined in showing up regardless. It’s definitely a work in progress. 😅

Such great advice, Jordan. Thanks so much, man!

As usual, super helpful and concise. Thanks for the dope material. Its interesting that reading about BJJ was so helpful for such a visual/tactile activity.

You literally listed all of my most listened to BJJ channels. You’re the man Jordy!

Love the positivity , great advice

Yet another great video, Jordan. Your content is truly inspirational, & can’t thank you enough for the consistent knowledge. 🤝

Awesome video as always ! Love the channel and podcast keep it up.

Thank you Jordan. I have just taken 3 classes but I know I’m on the right track.

Thank you Jordan this video was so helpful, keep up the great work 👍🏾

I freaking love this channel!!!

Rad content Mate, your films have helped me out heaps! My biggest challenge has always been rolling with heavier people (I'm 70kg, anyone over 90kg is pretty full on for me), I'll definitely watch as many tips and tricks films you can make about rolling with the big fellas!

Solid content, Jordan 👊🏼

The editing on this one is great and even better advice!!

i swear you. are. the. best.!!!!!! i LOVE IT WHEN YOU POST keep it up!!!

Wow, just the video I needed to see. Perfect advice for a new blue belt. Love your stuff, man!

Great video!

Thank you for this channel! It's fresh and definitely filling a void in a sea of BJJ videos! If you have tips for smaller people that are weaker (aside from the obvious "be more technical"), it would be greatly appreciated!!

Good stuff!! 👊🏼

Fantastic guidance.

Love your channel brother. Thanks for the data downloads, I appreciate you ❤

amazing amazing content ! thank you SO MUCH for the advices

Thanks for the advice. Your videos always help! Actually almost finished the one handed Kimora you showed!!! 👊👊👊

Your videos have turned a corner in quality Jordan. I'm a long time subscriber (used to live in Buffalo). Keep up the great work! You're breaking out!

Gold video again👊🏽 I’m pretty bad at passing guards so I know what I have to do thanks!

This video is GOLD!!! Asking questions with a purpose is so powerful. Don't just ask, "what should I work on?" Also thanks for the shoutout 🤙🙏🥋

Jordan’s KZfaq channel is a cheat code to get good fast. My defence has gone up massively due to your videos and simple tips, now just to improve my offence (always been my weak point)

Awesome tips bro

I really liked you talking to the camera. You’re getting better at this KZfaq thing. Keep it up! OSS 👊

Good stuff amigo 🤙

As always great great content thanks

Thank you, Jordon!

Thank you for making this video. 20 and just now getting into jui jitsu

Awesome video

Great advice, thank you.

Excellent video that everyone should watch. I still read JiuJitsu Academy every chance I get.

Great tips 👊

Thanks bro you are a Legend 🤙🏼

Cool Jon Thomas shoutout. I train in Chattanooga, TN and drop into Triangle Academy in Franklin, TN whenever possible. Jon’s brother is an instructor there and I always enjoy his classes. Also, always enjoy the content! Much love!

Quality videos are better than some obscure technique. This video was golden and useful. Thanks appreciate what you do and teach.

I think you have the best information on jiu jitsu

Great tips and totally agree with all of your points! And you are right, your channel is not too bad 😂

u have learned so much from you past 2 years. you are superb

Good stuff. Thanks.

Fantastic!

Nice video 🤙🏼

Great advice. As a 57 year old white belt time is not on my side. But I love it! Thanks Jordan looking forward to catching up on your past videos. And learning from future ones!

you re the best man. Thanks a lot for everything!

im a very young while belt and my only talent is learning techniques very quickly, your inside position made me go from worse to on par with one of the other high level while belts at my gym(same with the dog fight). truly amazing advice man!

Great advices thx !

You’re the man Jordan.

Solid content as usual! I especially love the other KZfaq channel recommendations 👌 I have gained tons of insight via premium KZfaq it's worth every penny to watch endless amounts of BJJ content with no ads! It's similar to instructions or at least the next best thing. As, I watch and create playlists on specific moves & techniques (from various grappling channels) that become a library for me to go back and reference anytime I want. It's been my BJJ hack since 2018✊

Great stuff

I train at alleycats in the UK.. we are a very good BJJ gym.. I have trained for around 7 years now. And I must say your video are amazing thank you for your post.. they do help a lot. Keep doing what you are doing thanks

Thank you for the video

Thank You Jordan.

Keeping a journal after every class has really helped fast track my progress. Highly recommend it. 👊🏻

Ayyye 4:25 shhoutout to me and big Chad haha awesome video Jordan! Thank you for your insight as well.

Thanks for the wonderful content. I would like to add, in regards to drilling. Injuries of any kind are demoralizing. I injured my shoulder 20 yrs ago and quit BJJ. It was one of the biggest mistakes of my life. Fortunately I came back 3 yrs ago and am on my way to purple belt. Now I believe injury can be a blessing in disguise to force adaptation in you BJJ game. One of my training partners hurt his back pretty badly. Almost couldn’t walk. He came to class every day took notes, and rehabilitated his back during class. He started basic guard movements, then started drilling with partners super lightly in his back control, which was not good before his back got hurt. He was a (3) striped blue for a very long time. With in the 4 months of his note taking and back rehab at the gym he is almost impossible to defend his back control and received his purple belt in June. He would have never worked on his back takes if he had not gotten injured to the level of proficiency he is at now.

Great video, Jordan. Thank you! And great editing, Ben! My biggest frustration is overcoming my ego when one of my partners that has trained for a less amount of time submits me. I know this is extremely common, and I'm hoping to get over it real soon because I don't like the negative feelings I get when it happens

Great video as always. I felt that comment about quitting and could have been a black belt by now😅. Glad to be back though.🤙

Perhaps the most useful video on how to improve BJJ. Thank you. I will meditate on this and apply it during my training

Great job Jordan, congratulations on the BJJ fanatics opportunity!

Thank you sir!!!

Phase 2 of Jordan teaches jiu jitsu 🔥🔥🔥🔥
