Black-belt/Adult/Male/Open-Class – Quarterfinal

In this video I show a Oma Plata escape that leads into Back Mount that you can use in BJJ. I recently hit this in one of our rolling videos from a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training session we had and I received a question about how I used the technique.

In the video of our rolling, which is clipped into the video, I got caught in a triangle choke position. Then after escaping the triangle my student switched to an oma plata submission. I countered this by hopping over and then getting into the back mount position.

If you’ve followed me for anytime then you know my Brazilian Jiujitsu style is all about getting to the back. I’m always trying to find a way to make it to back mount because I find it to be one of the best position for my game personally.

I hope you enjoy the escape / counter and hopefully it will help you with your own training.

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.

Is Boxing better than Brazilian Jiu-jitsu for self-defense or fighting situations? Is BJJ unrealistic compared to the sweet science of stand up martial arts?

This is the question for todays video which comes from our friend who says his friend has told him that Brazilian Jiujitsu is not an effective martial art and is useless for a street fight.

I obviously disagree with this viewpoint as someone who has used BJJ in fighting situations and has taught students who have as well. I do not believe this.

But in the video I try to talk more about combat sports as a whole and the benefit of them. Whether it’s Boxing, BJJ, Judo, Wrestling, etc. Combat sport based martial arts pose a different benefit than some traditional martial arts.

Mainly this is the fact that they spar all the time. This allows the practitioner to develop the ability to deal with stress which will help them navigate the unpredictable circumstances of a street fight or self-defense situation.

Also combat sports have “unrealistic” fighting scenarios in competition. BJJ vs BJJ doesn’t always look realistic to a fight. But Boxing too is unrealistic where if you clinch up with someone you get broken up by the ref. This doesn’t happen in a fight.

Ultimately though, I think that the competition experience lends itself to making someone more effective in a fighting situation.

And if you are someone interested in self defense or having to be in a fighting situation. I would encourage you to practice both BJJ and Boxing or Wrestling and Kickboxing. Just some form of grappling and striking.

Black-Belt/Adult/Male/Open-Class/ Quarterfinal

Would you like to add more pressure with your BJJ game. Maybe Side Control or Mount positions? Perhaps you’d like the ability to make your submissions a little stronger?

In this video I share some simple tips I give to my White Belts that you can incorporate with your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training to add more strength and power to these positions.

In the video I talk about how often, at least early on, people become focused on one part of their body in absence of the other.

So if someone is in side control they SQUEEZE with the arms but the rest of the body is not doing much. If someone goes for an Armbar they may begin focusing on just a pull of the arms instead of a whole body extension against their opponent.

During the video I share a couple of examples of how you could add more pressure and tightness. These are tips I share with my BJJ White Belts all the time and they’re helpful for them with their training and rolling.

So if you’re having trouble keeping pressure in positions or maybe you just want to add more to your Brazilian Jiujitsu game. Then I hope this video is helpful.
