This is really good question John K.

Over the years, my approach to Jiu Jitsu has shifted from trying to train as much as possible to training as consistently as possible. Early on, Jiu Jitsu often came first, but now I focus on balancing training with work, family, and recovery. Some weeks I train more, some less, but I make sure to stay connected to the mats. I’ve learned that quality, consistency, and longevity matter far more than volume. Taking care of recovery and mobility allows me to enjoy Jiu Jitsu for the long run rather than burning out trying to do everything at once.

Keep you friends close and your elbows closer. One of the most important concepts in Jiu Jitsu.

We are digging deep into side control defenses and escapes in the Interm Class. Useful things if you don’t like being on the bottom.

We’ll be diving into the concept of total domination from side control, exploring everything from positional control and pressure to submissions, chokes, and joint manipulation. This session will focus on understanding how to truly control the situation while creating effective attacking opportunities from one of the most dominant positions in Jiu Jitsu.

Join me for a deep look into the details, concepts, and strategies that make side control such a powerful part of the game.

Talk about control and domination. Peter Thanos is an amazing instructor and it clearly shows during this seminar. It’s a must see for all.
