Recently I was asked what it means to survive as a White Belt in BJJ. The question comes from a new White Belt who hears “you need to survive” all the time in his Brazilian Jiu-jitsu classes.

So I answer the question and talk about the idea of surviving during practice with skill and technique but also surviving through the rough part of learning a new skill.

Learning a new skill is tough, it’s never easy, and I explain 1 of the mental road blocks that happens with people and how to work through it.

Hope the ideas in the video are helpful!

In this video I give some tips on becoming more comfortable in the bottom of a tight mount position in BJJ. This video is a response to someone who sent in a question asking for techniques to escape mount. But I don’t cover techniques because he said he tends to panic and become uncomfortable with the position. In Brazilian Jiu-jitsu I believe it’s very difficult to survive and escape any of the dominant position if you aren’t able to get some level of comfort.

Now I’m saying you’re going to like being in the position or anything like that, but you do have to be able to relax enough to think and setup a proper defense in bad spots. This is true for any position in Brazilian Jiujitsu but I think it’s especially important in positions where you’re at a disadvantage and the smallest mistake could lead to getting submitted.

So if you’re having trouble panicking in the bottom of mount then I hope this idea of learning to get comfortable with the uncomfortable is useful to you.

Thanks for watching!

In today’s BJJ video I cover what I believe is a common misconception about White Belt survival in Jiu-jitsu training. This video is in response to another Chewy Q&A I did where I spoke about 70% of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu is won and lost in the guard passing battle. This include passing guard, sweeping, not getting swept, guard retention, etc.

You can watch that original video where I discussed the idea to a White Belt who was feeling overwhelmed with techniques here: https://youtu.be/Lj_YN8wvxI0

Now in this video I talk about the misconception and break it down visually with Adam to illustrate my point. I hope this video helps you think of being able to survive in BJJ as more than just balling up and getting smashed on bottom. Because I believe if you’re strong from the guard passing (top and bottom) battle you’ll be ale to survive longer.

Hope the video is useful to you and your BJJ training.
Thanks for watching.
