I am a purple belt (7 years of training), i will definitely recommend this video to every white belt i know... u just showed in 8 minutes things that took me years of drilling and sparring to master, so for the white belts watching, don't put yourself down if this doesn't work immediately, give time, train and train, be happy.
Okay you guys got it! Will be up before the end of Nov. Hopefully doesn't take me 20 hours to make like this one lol. The rolling commentaries are a lot easier haha
I have watched this video at least 5 times in it's entirety. I've paused, backed it up and watched certain sections over and over. This video has helped me so much. Thankyou!
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu Wow, what a difference a couple weeks makes. I had a real tough time with guard retention this week. For what seemed like a long time I was mostly closed guard, locked up tight and my go-to was a flower sweep. I'd switch from different sets of sleeve/knee and hoped to time it. Sometimes I'd do a scissor, sometimes I'd do the one lasso guard sweep I know. But I had been feeling like I was always doing the same thing and wasn't implementing technique I was learning each night. In part, what initially made this this video so helpful were some key take always (like grips) but it also inspired me to try new things - or try the techniques I wasn't as comfortable with. There was some initial success but what it really reinforced is that yep, I'm just not that good at those techniques but also that I'm even worse at recognizing when to do which technique at the right time. I pretty much abandoned the closed guard flower sweep that I've been consistent with for over a year with all kinds of teammates to trying every open guard sweep I've ever seen. I'm a patreon supporter and talked about this in your week 9 or 10 questions. Anyway; excellent video, I keep watching and keep learning and keep trying to improve bit by bit each night I go to class. Thank you!
I’ve taken your “don’t let your opponent get your head” advice seriously and it’s changed my game. That one thing made me a much tougher out and opened up a ton of easier escapes. Thank you!!
Just started at Jordan gyms and have been very impressed with his patience, professional demeanour and how he conducts his classes. These vids are fantastic and I will be continuing my journey down the BJJ rabbit hole. Cheers Dave S.
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu Jordan I only have done JJ for less than a month 3 years ago and I’m going to start again. I’m 52, in great shape but I’m stopping everything else to do JJ -your vids have me hooked. People Jordan deserves more than subscriptions. He deserves some cash for the great nuggets of information. These vids are going yo make my beginning year accelerated. Donating!
The tips on side control prevention were amazing! I have a really hard time escaping side control and honestly I had no idea that stopping the arm from controlling your head was such a big deal until I watched this video, but now it makes a lot more sense. It was very instructive and I love that he teaches concepts rather than just the individual techniques.
Thank you so much for this video! There are so many instructional vids by awesome bjj artists but what makes your vid different is that you're rolling and commentating at the same time, with awesome content, easy to understand, you point out everything in slow mo that makes it work. And it's free, what a blessing!!
Really enjoyed the comment about recovery after failed submission attempts. I feel like that would be a great in depth video. Keep going bro. Great stuff 💪
As a 6 month white belt, I definitely struggle with guard retention. This video made it super simple to illustrate what I'm doing wrong. Thanks so much! Can't wait to practice this at open mat.
as another 6 month white belt, going into competition, 4 limbs grips and fighting grips is so annoying but, its a bit easier now. Hide YO PANTS. I also have a lot of difficulty sweeping with sleeve grips. and my god, getting out of a good close guard doing rolling is the devil
1 year in BJJ come this june, and i always 100X my rolling after watching your videos. last two days i dominated everyone i rolled with except our blackbelt coach(obviously). thank you so much Jordan - your breakdowns, slowmotion, and solo examples are legendary!
People are allowed to prefer other instructionals over all, but I think you HAVE to agree this is by far the most well edited and informative. And Jordan's just quite funny too which is always a bonus.
About 4 months of training and I'm going to rewatch this on slow motion and do some mental walk through. I feel this is all very important for a white belt to understand and realize how many of those things I don't currently do! Thanks and subscribed!
The production alongside the technical details makes Jordan Teaches Jiu-Jitsu one of, if not, the best Jiu-Jitsu based youtube channels out there. Very palatable to watch and listen to, while also having tons of key technical information. Kudos to you and your team man. Love your style.
As a guy who has been doing jits for 15 years on/off now, there were quite a few solid nuggets of wisdom given away in this video; in fact I've seen people charge a lot more to give away a lot less. A big thank you from me!
I really appreciate how he illustrates opportunities to come on top/wrestle/perform a reversal. I need to make these a larger part of my game. Great video!
This is probably the single best BJJ I've seen so far on TH-cam. I learned so much from the open guard and side control tips - I couldn't believe you also covered turtle! As a white belt I only learned turtle escapes this week, it made so much sense to me when you covered it. Thanks for the video!
I’m a 43 year old one stripe white belt and just stumbled upon your channel.. new subscriber as I find your teaching style hella valuable and I like the pace of your videos. Look forward to binge watching thanks for the great content.
I watched one of your previous videos about having the opponents head for side control, and I put it into practice last night during a sparring session. It’s helped improve my side control immensely. Thank you for these videos!
I am a totally new beginner NO GI BJJ at 49 yrs old. This video helped me understand several points better, like points of contact, don’t let them grab my head/neck and Trex arms! Can’t wait to try these in my next class! 🤜🏻🤛🏻
I just started in bjj, I'm 42 yo and started around 6months ago... love it and it gets less frustrating after watching and listening to your videos and the comments!!
Hey Jordan, love your videos, they are really helpful! Finished my third class today with my first Submission (anacondachoke) that was an amazing feeling! Looking forward to learn more , right now im totally hooked by BJJ! Much love from Germany!
Thank you for this video I’m a beginner 10 classes in and I went from constantly getting my guard passed by everyone to decently holding my own just from applying these techniques. Thank you 🙏👊🏽
You know it is crazy how important these basic items are. I have watched this video so many times and have used (and still do) these concepts all the time. Again…great content
Thank you. I'm obease with 2 babies. Found a gym that is letting me bring my children while I pratice. Today was day three. I already love it. Thanks for the info. Will probably watch it 2 more times.
Thank you! As a white belt, this is my personal top priority when it comes to learning and improving. Learning fancy submissions can be fun but it does me no good if I'm constantly getting smashed. Love your commentary btw. So dreamy!
Thank you for such amazing content. I'm a 9 month white belt struggling with plateauing and your content has been very helpful. These videos really help me focus on the basics instead of watching high end submissions I won't ever hit.
I love your lists. I'm writing the lists down in my reasoning journal, and the name of the video. I can quickly remind myself of the major points and come back later after going to bjj and rewatch.
I feel like this sounds cheap. But I am always interested in routes to the back. So I especially am drawn to when you turned inward for a back take after she passed your guard
Glad to make you happy being brief and straight to it with out the monolog is excellent and a solid niche cause most instructional are smthing else subed
Dude, that’s Nikki, his wife. She’s a strong black belt now. Super knows her stuff and could probably dominate any weak techniques with the smallest holes in opponents’ game 😂
I have a really difficult time watching instructional videos, however yours are entertaining and informative. Thank you for what you do, and I cant wait to continue to follow you.
crazy amount of distilled and refined information, i gotta say i much prefer the conceptual way of learning as opposed to the specific scenario style of learning, at least at the start
Man these videos are SO powerful to me! I don't know if it's your soothing narrator skills haha, or the fact that you describe the point of the concept/ technique your emphasizing without the fluff, but I watch/ listen to them on repeat on my stationary bike workouts. Anyways, I'm a 2 1/2 year blue belt and the concept of stiff arming the far arm when my legs are passed is something that I've happen to found success in ( whether it be hip escaping out for a reset or getting into a comfortable guard ), and I never knew why or how it happened until watching this. Thank you for all these videos! BIG BIG FAN!
So I’ve been training 13 months. Just got my blue belt and at my first advanced class I used the stiff arm set up leaving my right side open and leaning to my left tight baiting the pass. I hit the sweep easily on one of my teammates. Your systems keep giving. Pure gold. Keep the content coming.
Hi, I’m a three week, 44yr old white belt who recently was looking for tips on fundamentals and concepts for my “survival” guard. I really enjoyed your video and tonight achieved my first scissor sweep. I kept replaying, four points of contact in my head, while rolling. Trying to trex my arms, use a knee shield, shrimp back into guard and control my breath. Can’t tell you enough how this video helped.
ever since I started watching your videos I have been getting better at jujitsu im a one strip white belt and I couldn't get why I kept getting submitted but your videos have helped me so much
I'm two weeks into training both Gi/ No Gi and I love it! These videos are great and very helpful as I am learning all kinds of useful things that I have seen and had done to me but in my inexperience couldn't put together what is happening to me. So much to take in, just gotta keep getting my reps in!
Excellent techniques! The best time to watch this video would have been 5 years ago, but the second best time to watch this video is today! This is going on my list of "things I wish I knew as a white belt".
My son is 9 and started when I did when he was 6. He's competed 3x definitely going to have him check out these videos on his own time. Complex rolls while being "user-friendly" thank you. I do enjoy watching the rolls with bigger guys.
Definitely helping my journey as a white belt. Escapes are important to learn if ur learning learn to escape first because i/ u am/are new to this. Embrace the suck and love the suck of being a white belt. U will learn the most as a white belt
Ive been watching this video over and over again over the last year or so and I still find new pieces that are useful to me each time I watch it. Great job!
Thank you very much for the great video. I am a new white belt. This video is packed with so much info I watch it repeatedly to soak it in. Please keep them coming.
This is gold! Now I just need to calm down enough to remember it all during rolls!😄👍 I often revert to pushing at the hips when almost getting past which of course does nothing for me as I tire out and get passed. Will have to watch this video a few times!💪
Your videos are the absolute best I've ever seen! This is coming from my perspective as a white belt who doesn't know much, but it's a great supplement to being immersed in bjj, for when I'm not learning in class. Thank you!
Love this - like a Jiu Jitsu databurst - so much content in under 9 minutes. That’s Thursdays free roll session seeing new drills for this old fossil and his T-Rex arms (I remember rolling with T-Rex back in junior school 🤣🤣)
Man thanks so much for the insight. As a blue belt im starting to realize my mistakes but theres just so many little questions that at the end of the clases i kinda have them in mind but dont even know how to ask my instructor, this video gave a ton of valuable information so thank you so much i really congratulate you for your amazing work
Great tutorial! Will rewatch this a few more times. I’m a white belt. So far I feel preventing the pass hasn’t been a focus in class. Had to search for it and glad I found this.
Been ill for a few days so no training. Just found you last night and now binge watching all your content. You really give out great advice for beginners, but also for more experienced players. Sometime you have the information in your head but you aren't always sure of the concept. I find if you articulate what you are trying to do it can really help. You put the concepts into knowledge that sits at the front of the mind. Loving you content Thank you.
Fist bump, thankyou. I've been a blue belt for 5 months and I generally feel like I know a little bit about a lot of things but there is just so much I don't know. I also find it challenging to retain what I learn and then be able to implement new techniques at the rate that I'm learning them. Just the idea of sitting up, having 4 points of contact fighting grips is very helpful. As well as what do as I'm being passed to mitigate my circumstances or quickly recover guard to start over trying to survive then sweep or submit. My tendencies in guard are to sweep vs. submit. I'm older and inflexible and submissions like arm bars and triangles are difficult for me. Thank you for another great tutorial. I've signed up to be a Patreon supporter because I'm benefiting so much from these videos and I hope it helps to keep you doing them. Thank you.
I too prefer sweeping over submitting from my back. Less chance of things going wrong and easier on the neck. Although if it's a tournament or hard roll I'll attack submissions off my back. I appreciate the support man! Really means a lot to me. And to hear you find the videos so helpful 🙏

I totally agree with Pietro.
Same thing for m!
I just started ill take your advice
I agree with that comment. Bjj is a beautiful sport but you need to be patient and work hard.
Peace ✌🏻 👊🏻
In an incredibly saturated market of BJJ content this videos still manage to stand out. Great work as always!
Very kind of you to say 🙂 Thank you!
YES WE WOULD LOVE TO SEE THE KIMURA TRAP INSTRUCTIONAL!
He speaks for the people! Lol 🤙🏼
Ditto!

8:39 mins of gold. by far the best instructionals on youtube. cheers.
I appreciate Dave! Thank you!
I really like the 4 point of contact and starting sitting up in guard to get grips. Thank you!!!
3 stripe white belt here. This is GOLDEN info! I’ll be implementing this IMMEDIATELY. Thanks so much!
I’ve taken your “don’t let your opponent get your head” advice seriously and it’s changed my game. That one thing made me a much tougher out and opened up a ton of easier escapes. Thank you!!
4 month whitebelt here. Have to say you have the best layout for instructional vids. Makes it so much easier to try and utilize in class.
Just started at Jordan gyms and have been very impressed with his patience, professional demeanour and how he conducts his classes. These vids are fantastic and I will be continuing my journey down the BJJ rabbit hole. Cheers Dave S.
Thanks man glad you enjoy the gym 👊
Can’t imagine how long it took to edit this… thank you!
20 hours lol. I need a vacation after this one haha. Rolling commentaries although still very time consuming are much easier!

Awesome insight...especially the showering part funny but true
Thanks for this video man, I've been prioritising open guard since I got back to BJJ 3 months ago so this was a huge help!
Glad it can help 🙂 Glad you're back to BJJ too!
The best BJJ instructional I’ve ever seen

Jordan, your videos are extremely educational. I learn more from you than from my school, which just show the moves and allow us to roll.
👊🏽 100% saved to show my daughter. She plays a lot of guard and really needs to focus on grips and four points of contact.

This is gold! Now I just need to calm down enough to remember it all during rolls!😄👍
I often revert to pushing at the hips when almost getting past which of course does nothing for me as I tire out and get passed.
Will have to watch this video a few times!💪
👊🏼 I’m a 47 year old white belt. There’s a lot to digest here. It’s all great stuff! Thanks!
Massive yes for the Kimura trap instructional. Love the channel also. Keep up the brilliant work 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Your videos are the absolute best I've ever seen! This is coming from my perspective as a white belt who doesn't know much, but it's a great supplement to being immersed in bjj, for when I'm not learning in class. Thank you!
Thanks man! Glad to help 🙂
Thanks! You gave me those extra tips to go to the next level. This video goes in my favorites!
I'm glad you like it!
Love this - like a Jiu Jitsu databurst - so much content in under 9 minutes. That’s Thursdays free roll session seeing new drills for this old fossil and his T-Rex arms (I remember rolling with T-Rex back in junior school 🤣🤣)
Man thanks so much for the insight. As a blue belt im starting to realize my mistakes but theres just so many little questions that at the end of the clases i kinda have them in mind but dont even know how to ask my instructor, this video gave a ton of valuable information so thank you so much i really congratulate you for your amazing work
Great tutorial! Will rewatch this a few more times. I’m a white belt. So far I feel preventing the pass hasn’t been a focus in class. Had to search for it and glad I found this.
Been ill for a few days so no training. Just found you last night and now binge watching all your content. You really give out great advice for beginners, but also for more experienced players. Sometime you have the information in your head but you aren't always sure of the concept. I find if you articulate what you are trying to do it can really help. You put the concepts into knowledge that sits at the front of the mind. Loving you content Thank you.
1 month into JJ and your videos are a major help! Thank you !!!
Great to hear!
This vid was so useful 8 months ago as a white belt. Now coming back as a blue belt I see so many more details I didn’t understand before 💪🏼🤙🏼
Fist bump, thankyou. I've been a blue belt for 5 months and I generally feel like I know a little bit about a lot of things but there is just so much I don't know. I also find it challenging to retain what I learn and then be able to implement new techniques at the rate that I'm learning them. Just the idea of sitting up, having 4 points of contact fighting grips is very helpful. As well as what do as I'm being passed to mitigate my circumstances or quickly recover guard to start over trying to survive then sweep or submit. My tendencies in guard are to sweep vs. submit. I'm older and inflexible and submissions like arm bars and triangles are difficult for me. Thank you for another great tutorial. I've signed up to be a Patreon supporter because I'm benefiting so much from these videos and I hope it helps to keep you doing them. Thank you.
I too prefer sweeping over submitting from my back. Less chance of things going wrong and easier on the neck. Although if it's a tournament or hard roll I'll attack submissions off my back. I appreciate the support man! Really means a lot to me. And to hear you find the videos so helpful 🙏
