Have you reached a point in your Jiu Jitsu journey where you have a game/system when you are rolling? What factors contributed to developing it? Has it remained the same or has it changed as your experience has changed?

Question of the week. If you could push the reset button and go back to the very beginning of your jiu Jitsu training. What if anything would you do differently?
I would make it a point to practice the technique’s being taught each week on both sides Meaning the dominant side where we are most comfortable executing the technique and than switching to the less dominant side which for me was always a struggle.

What IS WORKING for you?
It seems like lots of time we ask for advice on how to fill in gaps in our game, but rarely do we ask what is going well. Rather than be determined to force our way down a specific path, maybe there are paths to consider.
I’ve been having success by focusing on attacking to dictate a specific response in order to control my opponent’s reaction and use that response to control their posture. This opens up so many possibilities without focusing on a specific guard or submission.

Question of the week! Do you have a specific pathway in your mind you are trying to follow when you start a roll with someone? For me lately it’s been trying to get back takes from any and all positions I find myself in. I find that when I have my partner in back control this is where I find the most success in controlling and ultimately submitting my partner. What about you?
