Just dropped a quick video on how I read my opponent’s posture. I break down the specific cues I look for from guard, kneeling, and standing. This is a concept that definitely leveled up my guard game. What cues do you guys like using? Give these a try and if you have any questions, put them in the comments below.https://youtu.be/4G1uCc_4eYg?si=khrr_vAXrW3EqSWs

Drop your BJJ questions in the comments. Try to make them as detailed as possible so I can give you a good answer. If you can’t phrase it in a sentence, don’t be afraid to make a video. I’ll either reply with text, or, if I find it interesting enough, I’ll make a video and post it. For anyone who wants deeper feedback like roll reviews or live coaching, that’s what I work on with my private students. If you want to work with me one-on-one, fill out this form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdgZskbNB-Wghu-BszBs9dPPGITE-HDo78NnRCTFPT1gimcLA/viewform?usp=dialog

Here’s a class I recently taught on K-guard. Take note around the 4 minute mark where I explain how to stop your opponent from backstepping out of backside 50/50. I think this detail is really important, not only for control but also for safety, because recognizing when it is and isn’t safe to backstep can help prevent your knee from getting injured. Give it a watch and drop any questions or thoughts in the comments.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yqMTIjCCAOE

Here’s some rolling footage. I think it’s really important to train with clear focus areas. This session I was mainly working on winning the hand fighting battle and using arm drags and foot sweeps. Training with that intent has massively levelled up my BJJ game. When you train, do you usually set goals or focus areas? https://youtu.be/Aanmb9lzsvs

One of my online students was having trouble dealing with opponents who pass from their knees, so I put together this video covering some general cues and what I think are the highest percentage attacks to focus on. It really helped him understand what to look for and improve his guard play, give it a watch and drop any questions or thoughts in the comments .
