In today’s video I answer a question from a White Belt about a situation that I think happens with just about every BJJ White Belt when they roll with higher belts or coaches.
When you watch the video think back to whether or not you had this experience early on in your Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training. And if you’re a newer practitioner then think about whether or not it still happens.
And if it does happen then I hope the idea with mindset helps you overcome the obstacle I talk about in the video.

In today’s video I share some ideas on how I do belt promotions at my BJJ gym. To illustrate the answer for the person asking the question I share a story about 2 college wrestlers who trained at my gym. 1 got his Blue Belt while the other didn’t. There’s a lot of factors that led to this. But 1 in particular was the reason for withholding the promotion from 1 and then giving it to the other.
Keep in mind, at the time, both people were able to hang with a Black Belt in top positions.
Hope the idea is useful to you.
Chat with you next time.

In today’s BJJ Q&A video I share a quality that all of my best BJJ students share. I’m doing this in response to a question I received from a White Belt who’s been training for BJJ and is ready to quit because he’s not getting promoted.
Now obviously, this isn’t a great mindset. So I share some useful ideas for Brazilian Jiu-jitsu training. I share one of the most powerful lessons I’ve gained from BJJ training and trait that many of my best students share.
Hopefully this helps you if you’re in a similar situation.

Ever struggle with remembering Brazilian Jiu-jitsu techniques? If you’re like most of us, then I’m sure you have. Especially early on. And this is the main topic for today’s question that comes from Sarah who’s a White Belt and can’t seem to remember all the techniques from her BJJ Classes.
So, in the video I share some ideas on why not being able to retain each technique you learn is normal and why it’s not even necessary for being good at BJJ. Sure, overtime you’ll remember more and more of them. But it’s not like forgetting a couple of techniques you don’t use will break your ability to be a good BJJ practitioner. In particular I share a story from my high school wrestling days that illustrates why, and why I never got too worried when I didn’t remember each technique when I was coming up.
Hope the video is useful to you!

In today’s Q&A I answer a question from a White Belt with a strong wrestling base who is breaking the spirits of some of the higher belts in his gym.
He says he’s been training for over a year (mostly no gi) and came into BJJ with a strong wrestling background. During rolling he says he’s able to give many of the higher belts fits and, in some cases, beat some of them.
Well, he noticed that after beating some of the higher belts they seemed discouraged.
So his question is, should he keep doing what he’s doing or take it easy on them?
In the video I’ll address this question and lay out why taking it easy on them would not be a good idea.

In Jiu Jitsu, the path from White Belt to Blue Belt is treacherous. There’s a huge skill and knowledge gap between BJJ day 1 and BJJ blue belt.
As I’m watching my beginners, this simple framing mistake is the number one reason I observe. If your opponent can distribute weight on you effectively, nothing you try is gonna work very well. Check this out and please let me know if it helps or if you have any questions.

In BJJ everyone wants to be more offensive and hit more submissions. It’s fun! In Brazilian Jiu-jitsu nothing feels quite as good as a well-timed submission. And so today’s question comes from a White Belt who said he’s defense is good but wants to turn up the offense now.
So in this video I’ll share 2 things. #1 I’ll share something that will destroy your ability to be offensive on the mats against similarly skilled opponents. #2 is a simple idea to eliminate this problem and how to become laser focused on your offensive techniques and submissions.
Now, I won’t lie to you. The idea is super simple. But it’s effective. It’s something I still do to this day. And when I think of all my best students and friends in grappling, they do the same thing.
So anyways. . . Hope the video gives you some useful ideas to assist you with your training.

Today’s question from a Blue Belt who’s competed, and done well, in several tournaments and is now gearing up to do his very first IBJJF competition. His question is whether or not the IBJJF competition is tougher than other Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competitions.
In the video I’ll share some ideas on the IBJJF, why you shouldn’t get spooked about any competition and also how 1 of my BJJ students struggled in a local tournament and later on went and won the Pan Ams in his weight class and age division.
So, if you’re getting ready for your 1st IBJJF competition then I hope the video is useful!
