How do I know my jiujitsu is effective????

Kimura’s are one of my favorite fundamentals! It is simple, effective, and a gateway to a series of submissions or sweeps. I believe the easiest way to learn a solid Kimura is from side control. Once you have this down, you can translate it to a variety of situations. 

Two fun weeks in a row!the other side of the same coin, we go from double leg takedowns to sprawls. I can’t decide which I like more: shooting a single/ double leg or sprawling on someone and taking their back!

Which do you prefer? Do you go for the takedown or do you prefer to react to your opponent?

NEONBELLY!!!

This week we will be building off the self defense techniques we just worked on. After defending ourselves, we learned to set ourselves up in the dominant and very assertive knee-on-belly position. This leads us into my favorite variations of the arm bar that I believe are tighter than the classic versions. 

Remember: you have the right to protect yourself, the best way to do that is to remove yourself from the situation. 

“Are you on your back or on your side?” 

One of my three checks to keep myself safe. 

Over the course of 20 years of coaching I have been to all the requisite and many supplemental trainings, course, clinics, and seminars. This is the most thoughtful, comprehensive, insightful, and introspective training I have been through in a single course. 

It is obviously focused on helping you coach jiujitsu, but the majority of the lessons are transferable to any training scenario.
