In today’s no gi BJJ rolling video you’ll see me hunting Kimura catches and Back Takes while my student Justin (recent Brown Belt Masters 2019 No Gi Worlds Champ) is hunting guillotines.
When you watch the video I hope you enjoy the rolls themselves. But more importantly for your own training I hope you take the idea of focus to your own training.
When we are rolling there is a deliberate purpose to the BJJ training. We have specific techniques we’d like to aim for. Granted we don’t always hit them, it’s our main focus.
This is something you should be doing in your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training all the time. This is how you improve the techniques and begin to develop styles and systems. You test the technique out, make mistakes, adjust and then re-test.
So again I hope you enjoyed the No Gi Brazilian Jiujitsu rolling session and maybe got something for your own training.
Thanks for watching.

Recently I got a message from a Marine with Wrestling experience (a little bit of BJJ) and is getting ready to move to a new area. He says that he wants to seek out a new Brazilian Jiu-jitsu gym to continue his training and improve in grappling.
His questions are about talking about his previous experience. He’s wondering how much he should tell his new Jiu-jitsu coach because he doesn’t want to seem like a big shot. But at the same time he feels like he doesn’t want to do the beginner classes which he thinks will hinder his progress.
In this Chewy Ramble video I share an experience from my years of training when I switched BJJ gyms as a Purple Belt and came to Derby City MMA (the current gym I own with my partner). I talk about how I incorporated myself with the new gym and tribe of people. Through this experience I give our friend some points to consider for his own training.
If you’re in the process of changing gyms or having a similar question then I hope this video is useful to you.
Thanks for watching.

In today’s video I address a question from someone who’s just beginning Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and they’re curious about the high drop out rate with BJJ White Belts. He said he saw a video that said 90% of White Belts never make it to Blue Belt and he’s wondering why that is.
Additionally he says that he has been training for 1 week and realizes BJJ isn’t for him but that he will finish up his 3 month membership and then be done with it.
During the video I share a weird analogy that I used with my students about White Belts being like baby sea turtles. I know that’s weird but stick with me here. A baby sea turtle hatches and immediately it moves towards the blue ocean. During this dash into the water it lacks the ability to move well and is bombarded with obstacles (mainly birds getting lunch). The turtle has one choice, just keep going forward.
A brand new BJJ White Belt lacks the ability to move well on the mat and is moving towards the Blue Belt. Like the turtle the White Belt has only one option to improve, keeping going forward, more specifically just show up.
Here’s the national geographic video with the sea turtles I was talking about: https://youtu.be/Ipf0fehg5os
I also talk about the attitude of the person asking the question.
Hopefully this video is useful to you or at least maybe you’ll find the turtle analogy interesting.
Thanks for watching!

In today’s video I show narrated roll with one of my White Belts during one of my no gi Brazilian Jiu-jitsu classes. I did this video in response to some messages I’ve received about doing a narrated roll and also about how I “take it easy” on some of my White Belts during rolling. This video will give you an example of how I like to roll with many of my less experienced training partners.
In the video you’ll see me exchanging movement with John. While I do roll really hard sometimes and give no space, I find that this type of rolling has a lot of benefits.
1. It allows me a chance to practice moves, techniques and ideas in live situations during BJJ training without the threat of being destroyed if I make a mistake.
2. It allows my partner with less experience to engage and try their own techniques out.
3. By focusing on constantly moving I improve my scrambling ability and even my cardio for rolling.
4. Another side benefit is that from a coaching stand point I get to feel what my students are up to and what could be useful to teach them in the future.
Over the years it’s valuable to learn how to shift your mindset and physical aggression into different gears. If you’ve watch my rolls in competition then you know I can “turn it on” when needed. But I don’t need to access that level of aggression everyday.
I hope that whether you’re new or more experienced that this video is useful to you and your training.
Thanks for watching!

Should even bother buying a BJJ instructional video series if you have no additional time to drill? This is our Brazilian Jiu-jitsu question for today’s Chewy Ramble. It comes from our friend Kevin who was interested in my Get a Grip series on my website. But he said he is a guy with a wife, family, small business of his own and he struggles just to get a few sessions of BJJ for himself each week. And with that he doesn’t have a ton of time to drill.
If you’re in a similar situation I’ll express right up front that there can be value in the instructional videos if used in a very strategic way. As we get older and our time becomes more precious I feel like this is an ever increasing issue. When we use our time on something we need to make it count. In the video I’ll share a video stories and teach you how to make your Brazilian Jiujitsu instructional video time count.
I share some experiences from my training and from my students where we were able to add techniques to specific positions with little to no drilling time.
If this was a question you had I hope this video helps!

In this rolling video you’ll see my student’s get the better of me several times. Which I’m pretty happy about. During this particular BJJ training class we did a lot of situational rolling. Some rounds start with us having the kimura already locked in place, we did some passing guard vs sweeping rounds and ended with some full rounds.
I was personally hunting kimruas for this class as you’ll see me diving and rolling for kimuras from all kinds of funky positions. I’m trying to improve my ability to catch them in weird spots to boost my Brazilian Jiu-jitsu submissions.
I think my favorite moment of this training session happened @1:09 where one of my guys Matt has been trying to work on his takedowns. He’s already a monster from the guard using triangle chokes and that sort of thing. But his takedowns have always needed a little bit of work. Along with some Judo practice he’s also been drilling some shots. And during our roll at that point in the video he hit me with a beautiful double leg.
If you watch the video you’ll see me goofing around and then Matt plows right into me followed by me laughing. I think I called him a jerk with the happiest tone possible.
Hope you enjoyed this video! Thanks for watching.
