The culture in BJJ has a lot of people who use marijuana/cannabis/weed regularly as something that helps open up their creativity during training or relax them at night. In today’s video I got a question from our friend who has friends who say that smoking marijuana before training opens up their game and always them to be more creative. And he’s curious what my experiences with it and Brazilian Jiu-jitsu are.

I preface this whole video with the fact that I don’t smoke regularly. I’ve done it a few times and don’t dislike or like it a ton. I’m just neutral with it. And if you’re an adult, you can do whatever you want to do, and you should have the right to. That’s why this is an opinion and not some hard stance.

But in the video I do share some possible apprehensions I would have if you decide to smoke for creativity purposes. I have these same apprehensions towards alcohol, caffeine and other psychoactive drugs that we consume on a regular basis.

I know that many people have strong feelings for or against weed. That’s fine, I don’t. Just sharing my opinion on the idea as asked by a viewer.

Thanks for watching!

http://teachmegrappling.com This video I ran into an old friend Steve Silvers at the SJJIF Worlds Tournament. I asked him to show us something he likes and he chose a rolling kimura!

In this video I share a cautionary tale about talking during rolling from when I was a BJJ White Belt. I share the story from my Brazilian Jiujitsu training because I received a question about talking during rolling. I know this will not be the most groundbreaking question and answer video I’ve ever done, but I do have a fun story to share with it and I hope you enjoy the video.

When it comes to talking during Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, it’s going to happen. Part of the reason why so many of us stick to Jiu-jitsu is the bonding that happens on the mat. We are in a place where we train and exercises. But it’s also a place where we get to know each other in person, not digitally, and become friends.

I know that one of the reason I’ve continued to train for so long is 100% the community of people inside the gym.

With that said, ever gym is different. In my gym we talk shit to each other constantly in a fun and laughing way. Some gyms don’t do this. So ultimately look to the leaders of your gym to figure out what is acceptable.

But I hope you find the story entertaining and enjoy the video. And if you have a question about talking during BJJ training then I hope it’s useful to you!

Thanks for watching!

Very similar to the Rolling Kimura, the ‘Suicide Roll’ vs Half Guard lands us passed the Guard and in a submission! Proper pressure is very important not to get swept.

In this video I’m going to show you 4 different ways to roll to improve your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu if you’re not interested in drilling your techniques. I did this video because many people want to improve their BJJ techniques but they don’t engage in any sort of specific deliberate training.

So in the video I explain how I found the idea of deliberate training back when I was a Brown Belt which had a big impact on the way I trained myself and my students.

Here’s the book I talked about:
Talent Is Overrated: https://amzn.to/2MG4Kck

4 Types Of Rolling Deliberately

1. Rolling With A Purpose
This first idea is simply to focus on hitting a specific technique to work on while rolling.

2. Positional Rolling
This is keeping the rolling into a specific position you’re trying to improve like me trying to pass my partners guard while my partner tries to sweep or submit me from bottom.

3. Rolling From The Weak Side
If you’re good at a position or technique. Try doing the same thing from the weak side.

4. Mimic Rolling
To improve against certain types of people you might have your training partner mimic a particular style.

I hope this video is helpful by giving you some ideas to use for your BJJ training.

Thanks for watching!
