There is a very important distinction between BJJ for Sport and BJJ for Self-Defense/Fighting.

It’s not so much about techniques but about the distances you fight from and the postures you use.

These have to be trained because if your instinct is to adopt the wrong posture or distance versus a powerful striker you may not have time to correct your mistake once you start taking damage.

In this video, I teach how to pass guard vs someone trying to kick at you. The posture and positioning are almost the exact opposite of a Sport situation as the threat presented is almost the exact opposite (the guard player trying to to strike to make distance as opposed to trying to entangle the passer in order to grapple).

I don’t emphasise it enough in this video but I do later in class – you need to really focus on keeping the lead knee very bent forward to stop kicks to the knee hyperextending the leg).

If you like my particular focus and style of teaching, you can get this kind of instruction almost daily for only $10/Month.
