This is a simple one for me... "don't quit!"

Starting Turtle system in Adult Jiu Jitsu classes. This could be a game changer for you. Just show up! 

I love studying and analyzing Jiu-Jitsu. My preferred method usually starts with watching video and studying the details, followed by taking notes, drilling the techniques, and then applying what I’ve learned during live sparring.

For me, the real learning happens when I can connect those four pieces, study, notes, drilling, and live application. Sparring gives me the opportunity to test the concepts, see what works, and understand where I need to make adjustments.

Great week ahead of us. Adult Jiu Jitsu program will continue with osoto gari and kimura lock system. This week will be huge. Be there !

Thai Kickboxing because of power and speed and Jeet Kune Do because of Bruce Lee

Top control domination in Fundamentals and Half Guard in Adult Jiu Jitsu. Great week ahead. 

A little homework for this week - https://rolacademy.tv/programs/half-guard-sweeps-series-by-thomas-rozdzynski

I 100% agree with the other guys. The sport aspect of Jiu-Jitsu makes sitting and pulling guard very appealing. In addition, I do believe that, in general, many people simply don’t want to spend a significant amount of time training stand-up.

Robert Drysdale actually talked about this the last time he was here. When you watch the lighter weight divisions, guard pulling is extremely common because of the dynamics of controlling and attacking from the guard.

However, when you look at the heavier divisions, the dynamics change significantly. Passing, weight distribution, and utilizing gravity become much more important. There is a greater emphasis on controlling the opponent through pressure, positioning, and the effective use of body weight.

I think that difference in dynamics is one of the most interesting aspects of how Jiu-Jitsu evolves across different weight classes.

Adult Jiu Jitsu will be full of Kimura Locks, see you guys are 7pm

Passing system in the Interm class this week
