I recently taught a two day Group Private Lesson to my friends from Monkey Gym Schwerte.

Here is just a small piece of discussion about the mondset you should have when learning to defend attacks.

The post Headlock Defense | Clip from a Group Private Lesson appeared first on jitseasy.

I’ve release two Instructionals so far that have been very well-received (The Guillotine Code and My Escaping the Pin Seminar).
These are available here:
https://graciemuenster.com/store/

I’ve been working on a lot more but it takes time because I like to put out a quality, well-organized product – not just some random moves thrown together and taught quickly.

And, the one instructional that has been requested most is an explanation of my pressure and control game. This is the essence of MY BJJ Style and it works across the combative spectrum and for all ages and body types.

This will be a unique instructional in that it is based on giving you a deep understanding of the concepts and mechanics of how to pin, grind, control, and ride your opponent until they’re in such exhausted misery that they will give you any pass, position or submission that you want.

Other Instructionals that I’m working on:

* Wristlocks
* The Fundamentals of Grappling
* Headlock Defense
* The Back Game
* Butterfly Guard
* Sweeping with Taps and Picks
and more

(Re-Upload) Escaping the mount is one of the most important skills and one of the most difficult things to in Grappling.

You should first learn how to be comfortable and safe when someone is mounted on you before you focus on escaping.

But, once you have some level of competence in bad positions, a good time to escape is when your opponent is transitioning to from one position to another.

In this scenario, we work on using the Upa as he mounts and not after he has settled into the position.

Because he has us in a tight hold, he tends to become over-confident and not realize he has limited his base, making it possible to trap and roll him when he is focused on going to mount.
This is one of my favorite ways to escape.

In my opinion, being able to takedown from various clinches should be the core of your takedown arsenal, at least in the beginning of your training.
I’m a big fan of knee block takedowns because they don’t require a lot of power and if they fail it is still possible to work into other clinch takedowns.

The post Run By Takedown from the Clinch appeared first on jitseasy.

This is one of my favorite Guard Passes in BJJ. And I’ve called in the Surfboard pass since I learned it.

What’s great about this pass is the functionality of it mixed with the appearance of being “fancy” or advanced.

When in fact, there’s not advanced or fancy about it. . .

It’s literally a technical standup / stand up and base mixed with a forward push to clear the legs.

This move came about because recently I posted a video of me and my students rolling.

And at some point in the video I hit the Surfboard pass against my student’s Butterfly Guard. And I received lots of questions asking what exactly the pass was.

As I said, this is one of my favorite Brazilian Jiujitsu guard passes to throw into the mix against an opponent’s Butterfly Guard.

So if you’re looking for a cool Guard pass technique to add into your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu game then I hope this move is useful for you!
