If you’ve trained with me at all you know that one of the cornerstones of my philosophy is that you have to understand the utility of a technique and how it might change when the combative reality changes.
At almost every BJJ school, techniques are taught in the context of sport grappling and almost always with an eye towards sport competition.
And, so people learn to view a technique through only one lens, which gives them a very limited understanding of the Art.
This is why BJJ people are so comfortable defining terms as best and worst without understanding those terms are useless when expanded into other conflict arenas.
This really limits practitioner’s understanding of techniques as well as their ability to effectively use them.
Knee on Belly is an exceptionally useful technique outside of just sport grappling where it is usually viewed as just “2 points.”
