In Brazilian Jiu-jitsu we are often in close proximity of our training partners in a way that simply doesn’t happen often in our regular day to day lives. And this is even more true when we talk about a woman rolling with a man.

In this video I answer a question from Rod who is struggling to roll with the idea of rolling with women because of his old fashioned upbringing. He says he has no problem with women training, he’s just been conditioned not to be physical with them.

And as a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu coach of over 10 years I’ve had many men and women tell me of discomfort they have (at least initially) with rolling with with the opposite sex. For women the closeness is often very foreign to them or sometimes there is even trauma associated with being that close to a guy. And for men in some cases it can be a upbringing that doesn’t allow them to be physical with women or in some cases religious reasons

There are a ton of other reasons too. But during the video I give Rod some ideas to chew on about his situation that I hope might be helpful. I also share the hidden benefit of rolling with women who are often smaller than men and force them to slow down their rolling.

And if you’re in a similar place then I hope the video is useful to you as well.

Thanks for watching!

Want me to give you a powerful and advanced lesson for your BJJ game that is also ultra simple? In the video I do just that.

Now it’s a lesson that can be used at anytime in your grappling training but it’s often overlooked. It’s also a training technique that most people will avoid due to discomfort. But with that said, it’s a lesson that has radically changed multiple aspects of my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu game and led to more submissions, smoother guard passing and more back takes.

That lesson is. . . take the techniques you know well and do them to the other side.

Now some of you are probably on the other end of this message upset itching to unsubscribe because you were expecting some super secret ninja thing. Well, you can always unsubscribe, the button is there.

But for those of you who are still reading, watch the video and I’ll explain why it’s so powerful.

Hope the video is useful for you.
Thanks for watching!

In today’s BJJ Q&A video I answer a question from a competitive BJJ Blue Belt who says that he is enjoying the variety that Brazilian Jiu-jitsu offers, but he says that with all this variety he is struggling to determine his best techniques and finding the balance between experimenting with new techniques and sharpening the old ones. He’s hit with dread information overload!

When you watch the video you’ll hear me talk about some main points.

The 1st one being that as a White Belt your job is to survive and do what you can. During this phase of BJJ training your options are much more limited. But as you progress you get a new found freedom almost like a teenager when they get their first car. At this point you can explore and do all sorts of things you couldn’t before.

At this point it becomes like a prospector from older times who would sift through dirt and sand to find gold.

So as you progress in BJJ you expand your techniques and sift through what works to find the best techniques for you.

I hope this video and the ideas I share in it are useful to you and your ability to develop your BJJ game.

Thanks for watching.
