Attempting to Float
Something I’ve really been working on lately is floating and surfing from the top instead of forcing pressure.
Rather than trying to glue myself to one position, I’m staying light, mobile, and reactive—letting movement create openings instead of muscling them.
What I’m noticing:
• Fewer scrambles I don’t want
• Less energy wasted
• Better timing on transitions
• More control without feeling heavy
I’m still far from perfect.
There are moments I mistime it, lose balance, or get caught trying to be too loose.
But that’s the process.
Jiu-jitsu has layers, and this one has been huge for me—learning when to float, when to surf, and when to drop pressure.
Curious—do you prefer heavy pressure on top, or a lighter, more mobile style? 🥋👇
