A topic that comes up a lot for people that compete. There are better ways and worse ways to cut weight. Seriously dehydrating yourself is not one of them!

The AWESOME LEG Lasso LEG BAR Entrance!
The AWESOME LEG LASSO Into LEG BAR Entrance…we looked at something similar recently – the lasso into catapult sweep, which is one of my favorites. If you have the time take a look at that video. This one uses a similar process but moves into a leg bar. Which is a brilliant submission and really hard to stop. It’s actually much easier than it might sound. Take a look at the video. Give it a try on the mat and let me know how you go!
The Hitchhiker ESCAPE From An AMRBAR!
A ‘must have’ in the BJJ arsenal. The hitchhiker escape from the Armbar. This technique can quickly turn a very bad day for you into a very bad day for your opponent. And it really is rather simple and the mechanics when you think about it – rather straight forward. The great thing is that many Jiu Jitsu competitors either forget about the escape (and hence the counter) or just have not seen it at all. Give it a try on the mat. Let me know how you do. I hope you love it.

Totally LEGAL at Whitebelt – The Belly Down Footlock!
You might have seen me use this in rolling. It’s a fantastic submission and offers a level of leverage that the regular footlock does not have. It catches people by surprise and is very effective in competition. Watch the video. Give it a try and let me know how it goes.
A QUICK ROLL with 7 of my BLUE BELT Students!
I try and roll in a long sequence with my students where they come in fresh one after the other after I’ve had a good rolling session during class. This keeps my cardio up and ensures that I need to keep on top of my game. Take a look at this video where I use some of the techniques that I’ve spoken about in previous videos. If there are some moves that I use that you would like me to cover in future video tutorials. Please just ask in the comment box below. Enjoy!
Enhancing YOUR Jiu Jitsu GROWTH and Evolution!
In this quick little vlog I discuss ways to think about your jiu jitsu growth and evolution. How to enhance and continually progress in Jiu Jitsu. It’s not the easy path but is sure is a rewarding one. Listen to this vlog and let me know what you think. Hopefully this will resonate with you guys!
The Brilliant PILLOW Defence!
Is there a position you can get into where when you are being crushed…you can be safe (relatively), regain your breath and wait for a (very likely) opening for you to regain control? well, the Pillow Defence might be such a position. And therefore a must for anyone’s game. Check out this video. It is super easy to execute. Try it on the mat and let me know how it goes…
Mount ESCAPE Straight Into A FOOTLOCK!
An easy mount escape – straight into a footlock. I love this as being mounted is a really tough spot to be in…and to turn that around into a tap is fantastically rewarding. The best news is that it can be done. I do it all the time and so do my students. Check out this video to see the details of the technique and then try it yourself on the mat. Let me know how it goes…

The DOUBLE Collar CHOKE From The BACK!
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…
How to footlock when your BACK IS TAKEN!
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…

A Fantastic PASS – The OVER UNDER Pass!
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.
