The post Open Guard Fundamentals with Leigh Remedios appeared first on jitseasy.

Freezing while rolling is one of the most common mistakes in Jiu Jitsu, this often happens because the person training is trying to analyze their technique too much while they roll. I solve this with 2 different methods, 1way is to focus on just making fast actions while rolling, and the 2nd is slow tempo rolls. Also filming your own rolls can be a great method of analyzing after the fact. Let me know future technqiue and concept question requests.

The post How to Stop Freezing When Training Jiu Jitsu appeared first on jitseasy.

This is a system I like to use when passing a tricky open guard where my opponent defends with a wide leg position. Often when you opponent had wide legs it is difficult to attack a toreando or a knee cut, and if they are flexible stacking can be difficult as well, I have found this leg pinning system to help me immensely in locking one of my opponents limbs down and setting up the pass. Tye Ruotolo used this style of passing a lot this weekend at ADCC when fighting both Paulo Miyao and Kennedy Maciel. Let me know if you guys have any questions.

Jiu Jitsu tends to have trends with passing styles and guard styles. Pressure passing for a long time was discounted in lighter divisions but more recently it has been making a return. Andris has some of the best details I have seen on pressure passing systems, what I like about these systems is they are easy to implement on someone before they establish a guard they like to play, which allows you to pass without putting your self in too much danger. Look out for more videos soon with Andris as well as another upcoming Q and A soon. Comment and let me know your questions and request for the next Q and A.

The post Pressure Passing in Modern Jiu Jitsu (w Andris Brunovskis) appeared first on jitseasy.

This video I discuss the concepts of how I go about shutting down the open guard. I categorize Passing Open Guard into two different aspects, One is passing before your opponent has established any particular grips or guards on you, and the second is learning how to shut down each individual guard separately. It’s important to learn how to pass and become comfortable in many different Open Guard positions because the reality is you will often not be able to pass before the establish at least one grip. Let me know your thoughts on which positions are giving you the hardest time.

The post Shutting Down the Open Guard appeared first on jitseasy.

This video I demonstrate some concepts for recomposing from side control when you have already connected your elbow and knee as well as recovering when you are in north south with a strong elbow frame in arm pit. These positions are the mid step from full escaping side control and north south, yet I see many people get to these position and not be able to full escape. I like to have students start in this position and work in escaping as it’s easier than escaping full side but also necessary to be able to escape. I focus a lot on using your outside Leg to recenter as well focusing on not allowing your hip to get turned away. Please comment and leave questions for problems you have that come up when you start specific training. I would like to start giving homework to the people watching and give room to comment and ask questions so I can better address the mistakes coming up. I put up a lot of additional content on my Instagram with smaller details please follow there for more content.

The post Guard Retention Drill/Game (Fast Learn Guard Retention) appeared first on jitseasy.

This video I talk about my system for organizing my Jiu Jitsu. I organize my Jiu Jitsu by breaking it down into separate mini games each with their own rules for what would be a win or loss. People often looking for broad principles but often there is vastly different skill sets and rules for each position to follow. I see knowing multiple positions as having different weapons in your arsenal that you can utilize depending on the situation you are in. In this manner of training I feel I’m always efficient in what I develop and I have a very clear goal of what I am doing when I fight and when I try to progress. I spent a large portion of my career teaching my self through studying completion film and organizing my own training this was a large part of what made my game progress. Please comment and ask questions if you want to know more thanks! Also follow me on IG: @JonThomasBJJ for updates on smaller details and random ideas and thoughts that come up and are difficult to capture on larger videos.

The post How to Organize Your Jiu Jitsu appeared first on jitseasy.

This video I talk about the idea of specific training from the end positions in a sequence you are developing. Often techniques have different small positions within them that are critical to master, by starting at the end first you have more efficient use of time. If you start with the beginning of a sequence but can’t even get into the end position it’s hard to develop that necessary experience to trust in the position. I have used this method of training to teach my self berimbolos, spider guard, de la Riva Guard, and all different methods of guard passing through out my career. I hope it helps and please comment if you have any questions or requests for future videos.

This video I go through some of the most common mind set mistakes I see people making when they are developing their guard game. Often people box them selves in with one guard game they play way to wary and it’s much more important to learn to play a lot of position so you have options. Comment and please let me know future concept questions or technique requests thanks!
