Have your ever rolled with someone outside of a traditional Brazilian Jiu-jitsu background?

Maybe someone who has done MMA, Sambo, Wrestling, Judo, etc?

If so then you know that they grapple a little different

A different sort of cadence or style of rolling.

I found this out during my White-Purple Belt days where I began to be introduced to MMA training and would roll with people who only learned grappling through MMA.

In many cases I would get caught with submissions even through my knowledge of grappling and Brazilian Jiujitsu was superior.

Because their style and rhythm of grappling was different than mine, I had to adjust. Because where BJJ players typically fight more for position, they would just go crazy for submissions.

And I believe this is partly due to the fact that when you use grappling in and MMA situation. You have to have a sense of urgency with your techniques.

In today’s video I discuss this idea in response to our friends question who is struggling with a situation at an open mat where he feels a bit taken back by the people inside the gym.

If you’re ever grappling with someone outside of a traditional BJJ gym, then I hope this video is useful for you!

During the summer of 2017 my friends Jordan Sullivan and Clay Mayfield got together and had a killer Open Mat rolling session here at our gym Derby City MMA in Louisville, KY.

In the beginning of the video you’ll see a funny bit of happenings that were going on at the time.

People were leaving Nutella in my office when I was away.

This was because I eat really well most of the time. But I really like Nutella.

So I don’t ever even open the container because if I start eating it, I’ll eat the whole thing.

After that bit of humor we got to the BJJ rolling.

You’ll see me during the Brazilian Jiu-jitsu rolling session using some of my tried and true techniques.

You’ll also see me get hit with my training partners techniques.

At one point my buddy Jordan (another BJJ Black Belt) threw me and I was sent scrambling to regain position.

He’s always a tough roll and it was a lot of fun.

And you’ll also see me roll with Clay who is a scrappy Brown Belt and is a great BJJ training partner.

I hope you enjoy the little peak into our BJJ training at our gym.

And if you’re ever able to stop by for a BJJ Open Mat. You should do it!

Thanks for watching!
