Today we’ve got a question from Edgar, who asked me “Which option is better for real self-defense cases, Gi or No Gi BJJ?”

While reading the comments, many people swayed hard to one side or the other.

The Gi people said their version of BJJ was the best, while the No Gi Jiu-Jitsu players said their side was more practical.

One team says you’ll never fight naked people, and the other says you can’t rely on the grips of the Gi in real life.

There’s a ton of dogma around it and I’ll illustrate to you guys what I think about this with a particular hypothetical situation.

Hopefully, you found this video helpful.

Thanks for watching.

Self-Defense for women and kids. How to escape from a wrist hold/grab/control.

This is one of the most common ways to initiate an attack against women or kids.

The attacker may establish a wrist hold not only to intimidate the victim, but also to abduct her/him.

In this video I cover some of the most common wrist hold releases, and the 3 fundamental principles that will help you to figure out how to escape from any wrist hold.

If you have a significant other and/or a kid, then this is a MUST WATCH.

The post Jiu Jitsu Self-Defense: Escaping From Wrist Grabs & Holds appeared first on jitseasy.

Is Boxing better than Brazilian Jiu-jitsu for self-defense or fighting situations? Is BJJ unrealistic compared to the sweet science of stand up martial arts?

This is the question for todays video which comes from our friend who says his friend has told him that Brazilian Jiujitsu is not an effective martial art and is useless for a street fight.

I obviously disagree with this viewpoint as someone who has used BJJ in fighting situations and has taught students who have as well. I do not believe this.

But in the video I try to talk more about combat sports as a whole and the benefit of them. Whether it’s Boxing, BJJ, Judo, Wrestling, etc. Combat sport based martial arts pose a different benefit than some traditional martial arts.

Mainly this is the fact that they spar all the time. This allows the practitioner to develop the ability to deal with stress which will help them navigate the unpredictable circumstances of a street fight or self-defense situation.

Also combat sports have “unrealistic” fighting scenarios in competition. BJJ vs BJJ doesn’t always look realistic to a fight. But Boxing too is unrealistic where if you clinch up with someone you get broken up by the ref. This doesn’t happen in a fight.

Ultimately though, I think that the competition experience lends itself to making someone more effective in a fighting situation.

And if you are someone interested in self defense or having to be in a fighting situation. I would encourage you to practice both BJJ and Boxing or Wrestling and Kickboxing. Just some form of grappling and striking.

Understanding and executing sweeps can be a tricky thing in the beginning…and well after, too. These are possibly the most important sweeps to learn early on, partly because the remain useful and high-percentage, and partly because the are rich in principles that govern all sweeping techniques.

There are multiple variations of these, and hundreds of sweeps from various guards. I focus in this video on these closed guard sweeps only:

1. Elevator Sweep
2. Hip Bump Sweep
3. Scissor Sweep
4. Pendulum Sweep

These are great sweeps by themselves or when combined with each other, other sweeps or certain complementary submissions.

Thank you for watching.
