This is a great little technique that can save you loads of hassle when you grab a great footlock but your partner knows how to counter. Including grabbing your lapel, jumping up on you etc…well this little trick will help stop these counters in their tracks! It’s simple and you really need it in your BJJ arsenal! Take a look at the video, give it a try on the mat and let me know how you go!

In this video, I discuss a little trick that is more a state of mind an approach rather than a technique. But it’s easily just as effective. And it is often overlooked. Every time I tell my students this little trick their results from back control go through the roof! check out the video and give it a try on the mat. Let me know how you go

In the final part of our short series…this is transitioning from an over hook x-guard to a single leg X. Actually, it really is an Ashi Garami – meaning leg entanglement. But as you will see from the video, the transition can be extremely quick. And because of this it opens up many, many options for you. Take a look at the video and give it a try on the mat. Let me know how it goes…

We are now dealing with a savvy opponent. They are aware of the sweeps from x-guard and they know that they need to control the variables. By moving and posting forward. But that just opens up another opportunity with a simple ‘sidekick’ – old school karate style. But used to create distance, not damage. And with that distance, opportunities open up. Watch the video. Give it a try on the mat and let me know how it goes.

It is not uncommon to have completed the sweep discussed in the previous video a couple of times – to suddenly have your rolling partner counter/push against it. No problem. Use that energy to your advantage and sweep the other direction. Straight into a footlock (or alternative a relatively easy pass). It’s not hard, it just takes a little practice. Try it out on the mat and let me know how it goes.

You might remember in a recent video where I discussed the hitchhiker escape. If you missed that video, I highly recommend viewing that first…

In this video I discuss Two Hacks to GET THE SWEEP When You Are CLOSE But Not Quite There. And how often does that happen? so much of Jiu Jitsu is getting close but it’s the final yards that are so difficult. Your partner is defending – so it’s not like drilling. That’s where these hacks come in. They help you leap over those last yards. Check out this video, give it a try on the mat and let me know how it goes…

We have all done it. We don’t always get the best grips when we go for the cross chokes but we go for them anyway! It’s a common mistake and it is of course very frustrating.

Watch this video. Give it a try on the mat and let me know how it goes.
