Let’s finish 2025 strong 💪🏻 

I believe this is one of the most important questions in Jiu Jitsu. Both aspects play a significant role in the art. Developing the ability to protect yourself and escape compromised positions is essential, whether in a self-defense context or in competition. At the same time, the sport component brings creativity, exploration, and enjoyment to training, allowing practitioners to express Jiu Jitsu in a dynamic and playful way.

I wonder what Jimmy Sinclair or Patrick Morton  thinks about this. 

I guess I'm the only one crazy enough to have more than 7 gis 🤔

I’m super excited about the Butterfly Hook 🦋🪝series this week. It’s one of my favorite tools, not just for escaping, but for reversing positions and getting back on top

NoGi will be all about Triangles 🔺🔺🔺 and I’ve got some really cool entries planned that I’m excited to share with you

See you in class this week 👊🏻

Let me Larry if I can’t help with this 

We are continuing our exploration of Guard Passing strategies this week.

💡 In NoGi, we will focus on folding-style passing, using tight pressure and positional angles to guide us directly into strong finishing positions such as side control or back control.

💡 In Gi classes, our main emphasis will be the knee cut pass, breaking down the defensive frames and learning how to connect it smoothly from a variety of guard scenarios.

If improving your passing game is one of your goals, this is a great week to be on the mat. These concepts will help you build confidence, apply consistent pressure, and create clear paths to dominant positions. I encourage you to join me and take advantage of the reps, details, and live opportunities ahead of us.

Let’s have a great week of training 👊

thank you for sharing Patrick. So many want things fast and easy. Jiu Jitsu is simple but not easy. Keep on training 

This is amazing Larry. Keep on pushing 👊🏻
