Today we have a question from a self-proclaimed “Spazzy” White Belt.

He’s curious about the difference between someone who’s the master of a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu techniques vs. someone who knows those same BJJ techniques but is not quite a “master” at them yet.

He says the highest percentage submissions at a high-level competition are always the most basic: Arm bars, kimuras, triangles, rear naked chokes, etc.

He asks if I can explain what the different between a master and a novice of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu using the same techniques?

He can’t understand how the highest-level competitors still get caught in the most fundamental jiu-jitsu techniques.

In this video I’ll try to dive into this question through the lense of “invisible Jiu-Jitsu” and principle founded by Rickson Gracie, plus a few more ideas about learning to “feel” in BJJ.

Hopefully you find the ideas in this video useful for you.

Recently on the Chewjitsu Podcast we had Rickson Gracie Black Belt Henry Akins on. You can listen to the podcast in full using the link below.

During the podcast there were several amazing nuggets of information about training practices and techniques. 1 of which is something I do all the time, force my students to do and is something Henry said Rickson would do all the time.

This particular style of rolling is a great way to boost creativity with technique and further develop your own systems of BJJ. And I believe if you roll like the way I explain in the view you’ll improve your BJJ techniques faster as there is focus to your training.

Hopefully after watching the video you’ll understand what I mean and have some ideas for your own training.

The goal must be simply that of understanding the movement, learning how to breathe and maintaining your calm. #jiujitsu #graciejiujitsu #empowerment #martialarts #jiujitsu4life #jiujitsulifestyle #mindset #ricksongracie #ricksonacademy
