Today we’ve got a question from a BJJ Blue Belt, named Tye, who recently pissed off his Brown Belt training partner.

He’s a young guy & the Brown Belt was someone who essentially took him under his wing. Well, the other day they were rolling, and Tye caught the Brown belt in the Guillotine.

The Brown Belt does not tap, Tye makes multiple adjustments, and at some point, 4 or so minutes in, after the Brown Belt escaped, he bashed the Blue Belt for the rest of the round.

After they got done rolling the Brown Belt was obviously pissed.

Tye sends the message asking what he should have done in this situation.

In this video, I’ll give you a specific tip to prevent this from happening again. I’ll also discuss the higher belts perspective and what he could have done.

Hopefully, you found the answer useful Tye, and for anyone else out there who has had this situation happen to them, I hope this helps you too.

Thanks for watching.

What’s up guys,

So today we’ve got a question from an Ultra Heavyweight Jiu-Jitsu competitor by the name of Dan.

He’s also a Blue Belt who feels very stuck in his Jiu-Jitsu training.

He rarely feels threatened by the White Belts but finds himself getting Wrecked by the other Blue Belts & Purple Belts. This is clearly very frustrating for him.

He’s wondering how he can start to close the gap with some of the mid to higher belts.’

In the video, I’ll talk about how this is the perfect thing to happen now. Blue Belt is one of the belt levels where you’ll have a chance to learn the fastest for many reasons that I’ll go through in this video.

Hopefully, you found this helpful.

Thanks for watching.

The post The craziest triangle in PGF history by Marcus Elkins (BJJ) #shorts appeared first on jitseasy.

Today’s Q&A comes from Victor who is a self-proclaimed mediocre Blue Belt and when he comes into his morning training sessions (which is when he trains), the mats are full of tough Purple Belts and up.

He says that because everyone is so tough he doesn’t get much success while training and he is finding he is getting discouraged with his training and has even thought about quitting.

He asks how to stay motivated in a situation like this where full on success is unlikely.

In the video I share some ideas on staying in the loop when you’re not able to “win” the matches which starts with redefining what success and winning looks like.

If you’re in a similar situation as Victor then I hope this video is useful.

When deciding what I think are the most important escapes that people should learn early on in their training, I considered things positionally. The big 4 positions you’ll spend the most time in are mount, side control, guard and back mount. Being on the losing end of these sucks. Learning how to escape these positions is one of the most useful ways to spend your training time.

In this video, I show what I consider to be the most useful and helpful escapes from these positions.

• Upa Escape from Mount
• Elbow Escape from Mount
• Guard Replacement from Side Control
• Back Mount Escape
• Knee Cut Guard Pass

I hope this video is helpful. Let me know your thoughts in the comments. Thank you all for watching!

The post First Five Escapes You Need to Know | Jiu-Jitsu Basics appeared first on jitseasy.

What you I focus on as a Blue Belt? This was the BJJ question I received from Twitter. Recently one of the viewers received his BJJ Blue Belt and he’s not wondering “What now?” What should he focus on to progress.

As I share in this video. Ultimately, it would be wise to consult your Brazilian Jiujitsu coach or instructor to determine their requirement for the belt. Because they may be different than mine.

One of the beautiful things about BJJ is that it’s treated in many cases like an art form. With certain, at times unwritten, rules that govern the system and a self-regulatory aspect to fakers. But ultimately, we are free to sort of go about it as we please.

With that said, there is no standardization amongst the whole of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu coaches about what each belt should be exactly.

A lot is left to interpretation.

But if you were one of my Bjj Blue Belts, as I say in the video, I would jump on the technical buffet line.

Now that you have a strong foundation that you built as a BJJ White Belt, it’s time to experiment and see the different things that could work for you. Instead of being focused solely on surviving, as is often the objective of white belt.

You can now test out all the stuff that’s out there. Keep the things you want and discard the options that don’t seem to be for you. Which will set you up nicely as a BJJ Purple Belt. Which is where I think people begin to specialize to some degree. The only way you’ll know what to specialize in is to test out as much as possible.

Also, be careful not to be too worried about the newly acquired target on your back as a Blue Belt. It’s no secret that when we roll with higher belts. We judge ourselves partly based on our performance with this higher ranks.

So as a new Blue Belt, BJJ White Belts are going to be pushing themselves to do well against you. Make sure you don’t get too wrapped up in the need to always win against your jr training partners. Because in order to develop new weapons and test out all of the options. You’ve got to become ok with failing and making mistakes. It’s simply how it is.

There’s more information about my thoughts as a BJJ Blue Belt in the video.

I hope the video is useful to you. And Thomas, thanks for the question brother!
