Something that I’ve been told many times now by BJJ students or instructors is that you should always be on what are called “Live Toes.”

Anytime I hear someone say “always” or “never” in BJJ, it tells me that they haven’t thought very deeply about what they’re doing and why.

I know why they’re told this – it’s because so much of modern BJJ is based on constant movement and being on your toes allows you to transition to a faster movement position but at the cost of control.

Here, I discuss the various foot positions and what the Pros and Cons of each are.

Self Defense training is far more than just a series of headlock escapes. This is where many schools fail their students by not giving them the training in the non-technique aspects of a conflict – the ones that actually teach any Self Defense, that is.

One of the other big fallacies in most Martial Arts Self Defense training is that fights start at full aggression.

There is often a build up of aggression and to be effective in staying safe, you need to know how to manage the aggression (both verbally and physically) while attempting to de-escalate it.

This means understanding ranges and how they must be managed, as well as angles (two of the four things I always teach to control in any conflict).

Hey, guys.

Here’s an opportunity to get on the mats and learn from me.

I’ve had former students – as well as people who’ve never trained with me –
tell me they wish they could come to my classes.

So, I decided to do something I’ve been thinking about for a long time – creating a Patreon account where I can host videos of my classes.

For only $10 you’ll get access to all my class lessons and, if you enjoy my concept-focused and detailed style of teaching, I think you’ll get a lot of it.

Each week, I will add a minimum of 3 videos (though likely quite a few more). I will post some older videos I’ve had waiting but it will be primarily new class videos.

I will also post videos on special subjects, blogs and vlogs.

I really hope if you enjoy my teaching then you’ll come join my class.

I will still post Videos on here when I can (I’ve got a new camera so that should happen more often).

And, I am still working on my new DVDs and hopefully will have those starting to be released soon.
