Recently I was asked what it means to survive as a White Belt in BJJ. The question comes from a new White Belt who hears “you need to survive” all the time in his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu classes.

So I answer the question and talk about the idea of surviving during practice with skill and technique but also surviving through the rough part of learning a new skill.

Learning a new skill is tough, it’s never easy, and I explain 1 of the mental road blocks that happens with people and how to work through it.

Hope the ideas in the video are helpful!

In today’s video I show a simple half guard top position I’ve been working on to slow things down with guard passing in BJJ, especially No Gi.

If you’ve watched any of my stuff in the last year or so you’ve probably heard me complain about being older. I’m not old by normal standards but by athletic standards I am. I also have some super tough young Purple, Brown and Black Belts that give me all I can handle.

So, to slow down the speed with the passing on top I’ve been focused on a specific position a lot. It’s very similar to a position I’ve used in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu for years and shown on the channel. But in the video, I show some specific adjustments I’ve been working in to stay tighter, add more pressure and slow my opponents down.

Recently I’ve received a lot of questions from new coaches who are moving into the new phase of their BJJ which requires them to coach and teach others. So with that, I figured I’d do some videos specifically for coaches in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu.

Today’s video is answering the question I’ve received from new coaches who are curious if there is any 1 mistake that I see new coaches make in BJJ.

So in the video I address the most common mistake I see coaches make in BJJ (new or otherwise).

Hopefully after the video you’ll worry less about being impressive and more focused on being effective to the students.

Hope the video helps you!
