I don’t have a lot of videos of me competing and rolling because I was never interested in collecting it much. But, I do have some and I decided to go through them and use them as a tool to review how I do certain things.
In these videos, I will review how I use the guillotine.

It’s not just a submission for me, but a method of control, a way to sweep, takedown, and pass guard and even occasionally as a way to escape positions.

An important concept is not just the power of the guillotine/front headlock but also how the threat of it opens up so many other options for me (most obviously allowing me acmes to the body or forcing an opponent to pin themselves or abandon passes.

I haven’t done this before so the narration isn’t as in-depth as some might like but still I hope it helps.

In today’s no gi BJJ rolling video you’ll see me hunting Kimura catches and Back Takes while my student Justin (recent Brown Belt Masters 2019 No Gi Worlds Champ) is hunting guillotines.

When you watch the video I hope you enjoy the rolls themselves. But more importantly for your own training I hope you take the idea of focus to your own training.

When we are rolling there is a deliberate purpose to the BJJ training. We have specific techniques we’d like to aim for. Granted we don’t always hit them, it’s our main focus.

This is something you should be doing in your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training all the time. This is how you improve the techniques and begin to develop styles and systems. You test the technique out, make mistakes, adjust and then re-test.

So again I hope you enjoyed the No Gi Brazilian Jiujitsu rolling session and maybe got something for your own training.

Thanks for watching.

In this video I share a cautionary tale about talking during rolling from when I was a BJJ White Belt. I share the story from my Brazilian Jiujitsu training because I received a question about talking during rolling. I know this will not be the most groundbreaking question and answer video I’ve ever done, but I do have a fun story to share with it and I hope you enjoy the video.

When it comes to talking during Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, it’s going to happen. Part of the reason why so many of us stick to Jiu-jitsu is the bonding that happens on the mat. We are in a place where we train and exercises. But it’s also a place where we get to know each other in person, not digitally, and become friends.

I know that one of the reason I’ve continued to train for so long is 100% the community of people inside the gym.

With that said, ever gym is different. In my gym we talk shit to each other constantly in a fun and laughing way. Some gyms don’t do this. So ultimately look to the leaders of your gym to figure out what is acceptable.

But I hope you find the story entertaining and enjoy the video. And if you have a question about talking during BJJ training then I hope it’s useful to you!

Thanks for watching!

In this video I’m going to show you 4 different ways to roll to improve your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu if you’re not interested in drilling your techniques. I did this video because many people want to improve their BJJ techniques but they don’t engage in any sort of specific deliberate training.

So in the video I explain how I found the idea of deliberate training back when I was a Brown Belt which had a big impact on the way I trained myself and my students.

Here’s the book I talked about:
Talent Is Overrated: https://amzn.to/2MG4Kck

4 Types Of Rolling Deliberately

1. Rolling With A Purpose
This first idea is simply to focus on hitting a specific technique to work on while rolling.

2. Positional Rolling
This is keeping the rolling into a specific position you’re trying to improve like me trying to pass my partners guard while my partner tries to sweep or submit me from bottom.

3. Rolling From The Weak Side
If you’re good at a position or technique. Try doing the same thing from the weak side.

4. Mimic Rolling
To improve against certain types of people you might have your training partner mimic a particular style.

I hope this video is helpful by giving you some ideas to use for your BJJ training.

Thanks for watching!

In this BJJ rolling video from my gym you get to watch me roll with some of my Brown Belts and Purple Belts. In addition to seeing me work for Back Mount you’ll also see me get caught in some bad spots.

My Brown Belt, Joe, starts the rolling off with a guillotine choke. My Brown Belt, Jeff, later on blasts past my Half Guard pull.

As I talk about in my videos on Youtube. It’s a good idea to focus on a particular position, technique or movement for a period of time. During this Brazilian Jiujitsu rolling session I was focused on getting to Back Mount.

This was from one of our Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training session focused towards rolling. I hope that you enjoy the video and the sneak peek from inside of our gym.

Getting smashed in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is important! As a White Belt part of your beginning in BJJ is learning just how vulnerable you are. And when you get smashed and submitted by a higher level belt during rolling it makes you aware of the reality of the martial art.

In this video we have a newer BJJ White Belt who says he has submitted a Black Belt. He feels as though the Black Belt is actually using the full extent of their skill and that he is getting a legitimate tap on him.

His questions is whether or not he should lighten up on this Black Belt during training or keep going.

In this video, I share how I think the Black Belt is letting the White Belt work. I’m nice about it. And because I’m not there I don’t really know. But based on my almost 20 years of Brazilian Jiujitsu I have a good hunch what’s going on.

Many times experienced practitioners know the difficult road that lays ahead for the newcomer to Jiujitsu and so they try to ease the person into it slowly. Playing down significantly in their skill and ability.

In this video I describe a story from my gym to put the situation into context so that it can hopefully be helpful to our friend.

Thanks for watching the video.

Have you ever felt physically run down but then end up having one of the best BJJ training sessions you can remember?

Well in this video I share how not feeling your best can be a good thing for your rolling in BJJ. This comes from a questions from our friend who was coming back after an illness and said that he rolled really well by being focused on being defensive since his body was tired from the sickness.

In the video I share a story from when I was a Brown Belt rolling with a Black Belt training partner. And in the story I was in a very similar situation. I wasn’t feeling too well but I was preparing for a competition so I went to the gym to train.

During the Brazilian Jiujitsu training that day I had to focus on being defensive at first because I didn’t have the energy I normally did.

What was a amazing was that by being more relaxed and less aggressive during the roll I performed better. This was a bit of a shock to me but I talk more about it in the video.

Hope you guys enjoy the video. Thanks for watching.

In this No Gi Rolling session from one of our Friday BJJ classes.I roll with a Purple Belt, White Belts and a Blue Belt.

During the rolling I was working on a few things. You’ll see some back takes in the works including a takedown that leads right into the Back Mount.

While rolling with the tall lanky White Belt I was working in certain positions with him. One of which was inside of his guard and getting him used to shooting up triangle chokes. If you watch the roll you’ll see me reach back inside the full guard. This is a basic mistake that i wanted him to take advantage of.

If you’ve watched any of my recent rolling videos then you’ll see some common techniques being used. This is not by accident. I’m purposely trying to improve certain technique, positions and aspects of my BJJ game.

I hope you enjoy the video and find something useful from it.

If you have any questions let me know.

In this BJJ rolling video video at our gym Derby City MMA you’ll see a good mixture of takedowns, guard passing and I almost got my back taken during one of my rolls by one of my purple belts.

During the BJJ rolling session I started off light with one of my purple belts who is nursing a rib injury. From there we picked up the intensity.

My second roll was with one of my BJJ purple belts who is also a MMA fighter and former wrestler. After a solid takedown he came after my back and almost had it!

After I managed to get out of the position I got on top and went for my own attacks. A lot of times when I roll with my guys I have to turn it up a little bit because they are getting good enough to give me a lot of trouble.

My last roll was with one of my other purple belts who is the kind of guy in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu that is 200+lbs and somehow manages to bend and fold in half. During our roll we had some great scrambles. 1 where he caught me in a leg attack and another where I was able to get around to the back.

Hope you enjoyed the rolling video.

Just some videos of me rolling with my Assistant, Erkan Mete.
There’s times to get after it and there are times to play and explore.

Do you work on something specific during your BJJ rolling? In this video from one of our Friday morning classes I was specifically working Half Guard sweeps and a slick Back Take from Honeyhole.

These techniques were specific to my current goals in Brazilian Jiujitsu.

If you want to stop BJJ training plateaus, I can’t encourage you enough to try and focus on something specific from time to time during your training.

Having specific techniques to work on really helps you sharpen your skills in a particular area.
