Awesome! Thanks you sincerely Jon. Collar sleeve is my go to game and you have helped me fill in the gaps. I will be even more of a problem for higher belts now. 😊
I've learned so much from your videos, this is amazing! Going to work on some of those concepts today, watching you through many of your videos, I see the space you make, have depending, and this hip up type movement when attacking or transitioning. Looking back on my delareva and delareva back take attacks, going through it in my head, most of the movements whenever I am successful has that space. I've accumulated this idea through many of your videos, but this vid goes into the general details with guards. The tower concept, the creation of energy and why, THANK YOU!
No problem! Sometimes we do a lot of these things intuitively then when we become aware of them we start to see it everywhere. It’s a huge concept I use in so many places. Happy it helped so much
I've seen your other collar sleeve videos but this was the most instructive for me so far. When I first tried collar sleeve, my bicep and elbow would be sore for days because I kept trying to curl the other guy into position. I guess it's the danger of just following what the move is called and assuming that's all it is. Maybe if it was called "Collar-sleeve-leg push", I would've gotten it sooner 😂
Yeah I think a lot of people becomes over focused on ripping the arm out for the submission but you have to kind of move through the position and around to find different angles, it shouldn’t be forced.
something about your videos and instruction i assume often goes under-appreciated: i don't think there's anyone in the game who's better at directing an uke during live demonstrations. even though you lower your volume and talk in a way that sounds like your voice is being fast-forwarded, it seems you almost-always say exactly what your uke needs to hear, on the fly and without delay. maybe you really prep the people you're working with, maybe this is a skill you've purposefully honed over the years; regardless, really adds to the presentation.
Haha yeah I think it’s from teaching so much and having so many times an UKE is not in the right position you just learn to coach the exact response that you need!
Hi Jon, I might see you in Majorca in March \ April. One of my Professor will be there too, Ross Nichols. Would be fantastic to meet you in person. I love your clips you explain it very well. Rudi
Thank you for this. Ive been working collar sleeve at open mat and i have built the habit of lassoing the hip-side leg if my bicep leg gets stuffed, but sometimes i find it very difficult to recover the bicep-side leg if it gets stuffed hard. Do you have any suggestions for this?
Yeah you gotta shallow lasso push o their collar bone then put the foot back in bicep, if they control it well with their hand you can grab their wrist and strip the grip quick then go back to bicep then foot on hip with other leg. I have video on website for free about it I think.
just got my second stripe yesterday so I'm feeling pumped and am going to be binging a lot more of your content. thank you!
Super happy to hear it buddy and congrats!
This guy has a ton of good details. Watch them and watch them again. 🙌
This is the best Bjj channel on TH-cam ! This concept is game changing to me I always focused only on position and not distance! Thank you !

The nice thing is we can see all the guys that are late from this angle and are trying to skip warm-ups.
Haha for sure
