In this video I show a Oma Plata escape that leads into Back Mount that you can use in BJJ. I recently hit this in one of our rolling videos from a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training session we had and I received a question about how I used the technique.

In the video of our rolling, which is clipped into the video, I got caught in a triangle choke position. Then after escaping the triangle my student switched to an oma plata submission. I countered this by hopping over and then getting into the back mount position.

If you’ve followed me for anytime then you know my Brazilian Jiujitsu style is all about getting to the back. I’m always trying to find a way to make it to back mount because I find it to be one of the best position for my game personally.

I hope you enjoy the escape / counter and hopefully it will help you with your own training.
-Chewy

In this BJJ rolling video video at our gym Derby City MMA you’ll see a good mixture of takedowns, guard passing and I almost got my back taken during one of my rolls by one of my purple belts.

During the BJJ rolling session I started off light with one of my purple belts who is nursing a rib injury. From there we picked up the intensity.

My second roll was with one of my BJJ purple belts who is also a MMA fighter and former wrestler. After a solid takedown he came after my back and almost had it!

After I managed to get out of the position I got on top and went for my own attacks. A lot of times when I roll with my guys I have to turn it up a little bit because they are getting good enough to give me a lot of trouble.

My last roll was with one of my other purple belts who is the kind of guy in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu that is 200+lbs and somehow manages to bend and fold in half. During our roll we had some great scrambles. 1 where he caught me in a leg attack and another where I was able to get around to the back.

Hope you enjoyed the rolling video.

Do you work on something specific during your BJJ rolling? In this video from one of our Friday morning classes I was specifically working Half Guard sweeps and a slick Back Take from Honeyhole.

These techniques were specific to my current goals in Brazilian Jiujitsu.

If you want to stop BJJ training plateaus, I can’t encourage you enough to try and focus on something specific from time to time during your training.

Having specific techniques to work on really helps you sharpen your skills in a particular area.

In today’s video I answer a question about BJJ training from our friend who is a Blue Belt in BJJ. He says that he enjoys rolling with the higher ranking belts inside his gym because they are a bit safer.

But the issue there is that he is almost always playing pure defense.

He enjoys rolling with the white belts and less experienced people because he can execute some offensive techniques. But the issue with them is that they aren’t as safe as the higher ranks.

So his question boils down to this. Do you have to train with white belts and less experienced people in Brazilian Jiujitsu, of can you just roll with the higher ones?

In my experience it’s good to have a mix, as I’ll explain in the video.

Against higher ranking belts you learn what good Jiu-jitsu feels like and you begin to zero in on your defense.

But it’s still important to focus some of your rolling attention on people less skilled than you. Because against these people you get a chance to play around with more offensive based techniques.

In this video I share a story from my experience with a friend who got way way better at Brazilian Jiu-jitsu once we had new people in the gym to train with.

Hope you enjoyed the video!

This video came from one of our BJJ open mats a while ago.

Jess (my girlfriend) has been training Brazilian Jiu-jitsu off and on for a number of years.

I was in a particularly silly mood as you’ll see during the roll.

The video doesn’t give away any mind boggling new techniques or anything. But I figured I’d share it because it does show something important.

PLAY.

While there is a time to be serious and hard with our BJJ training. It’s also valuable to be have fun and just play around. The rolling doesn’t have to be for all out progress or some new skill. It can be simply just playing around.

In mammals play is often how we are wired to learn. And it’s only as we humans get older that play is frowned upon as a mode of learning.

Anyways, I’ll get off my soap box. Enjoy the video!

As part of my BJJ seminar experiences I like to offer more than just a technique demonstration and then leave.

So during my time in Florida. Sonny and I setup a seminar experience that lasted 2 days.

This video is a Vlog showing some parts of Day 1.

Day 1 which is shown in this video consisted of a big open rolling session followed by Q&A.

Then on day 2 we did a Brazilian Jiu-jitsu seminar with techniques and all that normal stuff. Following the seminar we had a dinner together. It was a great time.

In this video you’ll see some of the rolling with all the people at Gracie Bradenton.

Everyone on the mats was incredibly nice and welcoming. I had a great time getting some BJJ training in with them and then hanging out afterwards.

If you’re ever in the area. Check out Sonny’s gym at
https://graciebradenton.com

I hope you enjoy seeing some additional Chewjitsu rolling videos. 🙂

10th Planet Jiu Jitsu newest Brown Belt, Fabiana Jorge.

Fabi is an absolute beast. I’m proud to have her represent my philosophies and beliefs of Jiu Jitsu.

Today’s video is about a BJJ Blue Belt who got cussed out by a Black Belt during training.

The situation happened after the Blue Belt ,who is much larger than the smaller Black Belt, used a neck crank.

He cranked on the Black Belt’s neck for nearly 2 minutes (according to his story.) Eventually the Black Belt got up and said some things that were inappropriate for the mat and did so in front of everyone.

Afterwards our friend is wondering what happened and what he did wrong.

The Blue Belt also says that he has a hard time getting people to train with him during rolling. People tend to avoid him and he’s not sure why.

I think these two separate problems are 100% related.

So in the video I talk about using Neck Cranks in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu and how they can be used effectively but tend to be more of a annoyance or injury creator for most people.

I also jump into the idea of proper safety with submission in Brazilian Jiujitsu and being respectful with submissions at the point of finish.

This is important because when you have a submission, it”s the point of maximum danger for the person and must be treated with respect.

If you’re in a similar situation I hope this helps. And if nothing else I hope this video maybe helps shed some light on using submissions in a safe way. This way you can train hard but not injure your BJJ training partners.
