Hi Professor! I recently started BJJ and these instructionals have been an invaluable learning tool. The principle based approach helps so much. Thank you! Do you have any instructional videos on getting out of an opponents full guard?

A tip which may be hard to visualize lol but I'll try is to when in gi grab the other persons belt or pants and post on that then move one of your knees into the center of their but and post the other leg out and push away from them until their guard slips then you have openings to pass guard 😁, hope that helps

Love these videos! I really like that you tackle the fundamentals to address different situations instead of just teaching one movement. I find that a lot of BJJ youtubers tend to teach a single movement and don't address any sort of counter movement which makes it hard to apply in live rolling. Thank you!

Hi coach, does your advice change at all for smaller individuals? When viewing your technique in side control, you seem so far over to the far side that I imagine a guy like me would almost 100% get "big boy" rolled. Thank you again for the amazing content!
@JonThomasBJJ
3 ай бұрын
I weigh 68 kilos or 150 lbs and I use it on 100 kilo people all the time. It’s actually much harder to roll you when you are far over them because you can just post on the mat. You usually get rolled from being too tight and riding in your arm controls trying to cross face, if you have chest pressure you will have more free arms to prevent from getting rolled.

Thank you, Jon. I'm a blue belt and just had a big aha moment related to this. I rolled yesterday with a brown belt and he was giving me side control, north south, kimura, whatever I wanted, and a few seconds later he armbars me. I thought I was in a good position but I guess I wasn't pinning. He was monitoring exactly what he needed to allow himself to move. So I retract my endorsement of "position before submission" and declare my allegiance to "pin to win". There are too many in-between-positions and I can get to a position but not be in control. So I don't want to base my game around getting to a position. I'll focus on what I can pin and progressively try to pin more.
