We recently discussed the pendulum sweep moving into a triangle. Here we talk about moving it straight into an armbar. There are some tricks to this move that I discuss in some detail. Watch the video, try it on the mat and let me know how you go!

This is a very simple choke that used to be or often was the first choke taught from back control. It is now often not taught until much later in a student’s Jiu Jitsu journey. Still, you can learn it very easily. Just watch this video and then give it a try on the mat and let me know how you go…

This is a simple concept but one I often see forgotten. Under the pressure of rolling or competition I’ve seen people do this…many times. But one you get caught in this footlock from crossing your feet from the back. You won’t do it again. It can also be turned into a powerful submission. Check it out, try it on the mat (carefully) and let me know how you go…

Professor Gustavo Gasperin explains why there should be no differentiation between sport and self-defense. It’s all Jiu Jitsu.

If someone were to ask me the pass that I use the most. The pass that I use at the highest level. Then this might just be the one. Not because it is tricky or hard. But because it is simple AND super effective. By the end of this video, you will be able to do it as well. Try it out on the mat and let me know how you go.

My good friend, super BJJ athlete, and rising star Prof Mark Knudsen gives a quick demonstration of a brilliant technique…A pendulum sweep – straight into a Reverse Triangle. Check it out. I know you will love it. Try it on the mat and let me know how you go.

What a great time and experience I am having Dallas. I get to learn with the legends in the sport. In this quick little video, the master – Prof John Machado…takes me over two ways to pass the half guard. Awesome thoughts and techniques from a legend.

You might remember my video on the Awesome Roger Machado American – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xscg5rfunbc

It’s such a brilliant technique. You might have also seen me use it a few times in my rolling with my students. It is incredibly effective and deceptively powerful. Don’t underestimate it.

And I’ve been super lucky to have the Legend – Prof Roger Machado himself talk over the technique for you guys. I hope you love it. Try it out on the mat and let me know how it goes.
