Awesome video. Unless you take a beginner class that really builds from the bottom up it’s easy to miss these principles. A lot of these basics are hard to pick up on your own during sparring without a video like this.

1. Don’t talk about fight club Recap, hopefully it’s right! 1. Deny under hook 2. Deny cross face 3. Deny penetrations of your knee and armpits, they are sacred pure space, knee to elbow foundation 4. Deny grips 5. Use everything, 4 points of contact, 5?, 6… 6. Alignment - base / posture / structure Awesome job guys, thanks so much! ❤❤❤

Great advice! Some principles to add include: -control the inside -to attack, you need a pull and a push -to defend, remove the push -all successful techniques boil down to grip, angle, and position (in that order)

As a white belt, I thank you so much for this video. These rules are pure gold for someone like me who have to improvise during rolling because still doesn't know lots of techniques. So, thank you again

High level Judo, BJJ and JKD? He's not just a beast, that's a dangerous man. When I started training BJJ most of my grappling experience was decades old folk style wrestling in high school, so I had to learn quick not to give my back and not panicking when on my back. After that the simple concepts of keeping my knees and elbows between my body and my partner/opponent went a long way to helping me survive and learn. Now a year into blue belt, principles and "rules" like in this video are like precious gold nuggets. Rarely when rolling or drilling do I pull-off textbook perfect examples all the fundamental techniques I learned as a white belt, it's about adapting and feeling what's going on and applying the underlying principles, especially during transitions between positions and exchanging advantage or control.

This video is amazing - thank you for the efforts! Super logical, easy to follow content, brilliant! As a smaller guy, closing these gaps is something I've been working on as if the doors are closed it should allow my speed to work to my advantage. If the doors open, I'm getting smashed!!! I need to tighten this stuff up, so this is spot on. The details within this video are brilliant and I'm excited about my next class! Cheers guys!

I think it really helps to have some principles into which we can place techniques as we learn them, rather than learning techniques one by one and eventually (maybe) figuring the overall principle. This should help me progress a little more efficiently. Thank you.

I don't get what he meant by Base, posture, structure. The rest of the video was great.

@mikutajj 10 ай бұрын

Base = Any “platform” fm which you apply or absorb force fm relative to your goal. Posture = A straight spine. Any time your spine is bent, turned or twisted your Jiu-Jitsu suffers. Structure = The most efficient and effective way to utilize your limbs. Any time any one of these things are not correct you are out of alignment. If we think of it in a game of 3’s then any time our opponent doesn’t have all 3 but we do then we’re “winning”. If we don’t but our opponent does we’re “losing”. If we both have 3 then most times it’s a stalemate which manifests itself as nobody getting ahead of the other. Hope that helps.

@michaelstrong4823 10 ай бұрын

A lot of people don’t emphasize it enough. I’ve had to help other practitioners with this tons. Underhooks are death. I think you shouldn’t get a blue belt until you know what they are and can deal with them on a basic level. Offensively and defensively.someone hood at gaining and blocking underhooks can give a higher level grappler a hard time. Easily.

Don't worry, that's not abnormal, especially if you're light or smaller than those new people, and if the new people are more athletic or have a background. There will not be a big delta in your performance and someone new until you get closer to that blue belt. (That's the point of the blue belt in most dojos, you should be able to handle someone bigger than you that's untrained and have your fundamentals down in terms of defense, positions, sweeps, submissions, escapes). That takes a while, and you need pretty much all of it to fend off larger, stronger people.

@wmgthilgen 9 ай бұрын

There's a vast and different reason and it's ultimate utilization of any form of learning martial art's. There is the purpose of only self defense and there's the purpose of compition. Judo on Judo is by far and away from Judo on an unsuspecting someone who has an agenda not conducive to one's life style.
