www.getBJJsponsorship.com – Upgrade your passion from a pastime to a profession. || Ricardo de la Riva gave jiu-jitsu one of it’s most popular positions. The de la Riva guard is an effective if somewhat advanced form of open guard that offers a wide variety of sweeps and submissions.

While many positions and techniques in jiu-jitsu can be found in other grappling arts, the de la Riva guard was an original creation of jiu-jitsu.

In this video De la Riva describes the origins of the guard that now bears his name, and he shows us how to make the position even more effective by avoiding common mistakes.

www.getBJJsponsorship.com – Upgrade your passion from a pastime to a profession. || There are few people who divide opinion in jiu-jitsu more than the Miyao brothers. The black belt twins — famous for their berimbolos but also their long list of achievements, — are two of the toughest and most active competitors on the competition circuit.

These guys are incredibly focused — they live and breathe jiu-jitsu — and their meteoric rise in the sport has been matched by few others. It’s difficult to get them to open up about their jiu-jitsu because they’d rather be rolling than talking!

The post Miyao Bros: We Don’t Fight For Medals || BJJ Hacks TV Episode 1.3 appeared first on jitseasy.

www.getBJJsponsorship.com – Upgrade your passion from a pastime to a profession. || Leandro Lo is changing the way people think about how to pass the guard. His unconventional passing style, coupled with his own almost impossible-to-pass hybrid spider guard, have helped him rise to the top of the competition scene.

In this exclusive video we go inside the gym to see how he trains, how he developed his famous game, and how the Miyao brothers are the ones responsible for pushing more than anyone else.
