Recently, I got an email from “Bob,” a 54-year-old blue belt who trains at a more sport-oriented Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu gym.

During a roll with a young college wrestler in his 20s, he got injured, which has made him question whether he wants to continue training in BJJ.

With that in mind, he started looking into other options and found a Gracie University Jiu-Jitsu gym about 30 minutes from his house. He’s considering giving it a try.

He says there are aspects he likes, but he’s also concerned it might be a McDojo.

He reached out to ask what I think about Gracie University gyms.

So I give my bearded opinion on it. And if you train at a Gracie University gym, feel free to drop your comments with your experiences.

Hopefully, you guys enjoy the video. As always, thanks for watching!

Today we have a question from a self-proclaimed “Spazzy” White Belt.

He’s curious about the difference between someone who’s the master of a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu techniques vs. someone who knows those same BJJ techniques but is not quite a “master” at them yet.

He says the highest percentage submissions at a high-level competition are always the most basic: Arm bars, kimuras, triangles, rear naked chokes, etc.

He asks if I can explain what the different between a master and a novice of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu using the same techniques?

He can’t understand how the highest-level competitors still get caught in the most fundamental jiu-jitsu techniques.

In this video I’ll try to dive into this question through the lense of “invisible Jiu-Jitsu” and principle founded by Rickson Gracie, plus a few more ideas about learning to “feel” in BJJ.

If you’d like to check out the book, use the link below:

Hopefully you find the ideas in this video useful for you.
