Blue Belt Blues in BJJ doesn’t really exist. I’m going to just start with that. In Brazilian Jiu-jitsu some new Blue Belts get very attached to this idea of The Belt Blues as a reason why they’re having trouble being motivated.
And I guess if you put too much focus on the Blue Belt it could be tough. But I think the idea of attaching yourself and identifying with something is dangerous.
If you believe you are something, you’re that. So if you think you have Blue Belt Blues, then you have it.
But if you just look at it like a short lived funk in your Brazilian Jiujitsu training that you need to shake off instead of some sort of “condition” you’ll probably find it lasts a much shorter time.
In this video I discuss this topic as our friend is struggling with competitions and has become gripped by this idea of Blue Belt Blues.
If you’re struggling as a new Blue Belt in BJJ. I hope this video helps!

Here’s some of the best action from the 2019 American National Day 1.
In this video I answer a question about the BJJ Arm Triangle Choke. The question was mainly about how to make the choke tighter rather than squeezing on someones jaw.
In the video I give some of my favorite adjustments to making the Arm Triangle tighter and a much cleaner submission rather than just driving into someones face.
In Brazilian Jiu-jitsu we always need to remember what our goal is with the choke submissions. Most often it’s to apply pressure to the carotids.
So when you’re drilling and practicing your techniques it’s important to use finesse and apply the submissions with focus on the true objective of that move.
During practice if you feel like you have to squeeze with all your might, it’s probably not technically sound.
Now when it comes to a hard roll or Brazilian Jiujitsu competition. That’s when you add the strength element into things.
Either way if you are struggling to finish the arm triangle choke. I hope this video is useful!

Recently I got a question from a female BJJ Blue Belt who was recently asked to help coach with a female only class. She is excited about the prospect but also nervous.
She’s nervous 1st because she is still beginning herself and so she’s wondering how to go from the mentality of a student to an assistant coach. She’s also curious about how she can help women stick around with training. She’s the only woman currently and she’d like to have other female training partners.
In this video I talk about a few things.
I discuss how I was in a similar situation when I was a Blue Belt in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and was asked to help. I go through how I did things in the hopes of helping our friend.
The big idea I share in this video though is about the way we learn as humans. Which is through modeling others and then creating our own style.
We do this through speech and even our BJJ training. I liken it to coming up to a forest and having a blazed trail. Someone has to blaze the trail.
And by carving a path for women in her area I think Karin will accomplish her goal of helping women stick around but also becoming a better teacher.
If you’re in a similar situation I hope the video helps!

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.
