  • In this four-part video seminar series, Ryron and Rener explore the four elements of jiu-jitsu, starting with DEFENSE.
    Part 1: Defend
    a. Big - Avoid/defend the positions and moves where the attack can begin.
    b. Small - Keep your opponent from completing what they have started.
    c. Deep - Defensive options for when you are in a deep submission.

    I’ve watch this twice in the last two days As a three stripe white belt I went into open mat today with a different mindset I got taped once in 6 rolls I submitted Two people and the time ran Out on the other three. I found other white belts and blue belts frustrated at my ability to defend against Their attacks when I was not so focused on escaping the position Thank you very much I think you have now changed the way I roll for a lifetime

      If we're talking about sidecontrol, you frame, bump and shrimp right? What bullshit against heavy guys. No dis to the art, but of course they crush that space before you can retain guard. What I started doing was bumping/shrimping so I could have space to snake my inside arm right under their body as they crush me. Even leave my outside arm exposed to isolation to provide distraction. I bump one more time and push my snaked arm against their body while spinning out on the other side. You've just learned the Ghost Sidecontrol Escape. You're welcome 👊

      I love it man, Great job! I watch this every couple months, im a 1 strip white belt. Up through blue belts have a tough time getting through to submission. Purple belts have to get kind of creative.

      Casey potter vlogs 🌸 that’s so cool 🤗
      I just started, I have zero strength and like you just watched the vids
      I whipped someone who’s been an actual teacher, black belt
      I watched other vids and reviewed it in my mind, i was lucky I guess but I was also armed with knowledge

    You guys are Awesome! I’m 42, have been inactive for over a decade and decided it was time to do something. I’m 300 lbs and my body is broken from years of abuse and neglect. I signed my son and daughter up at one of your schools in Greensboro, NC and could not be happier with their progress in the short time they’ve been training. After two weeks, I too, signed up and have been working to better my physical and mental health. These videos give me hope I can work around physical limitations I now struggle with. Thank you for taking the time to produce these videos!

    Hi Rener and Ryron. Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. I'm 43 yrs originally from Aruba living in Maastricht (NL). Martial arts past: Kyokoshin and kickboxing when I was very young. Now at 43 I recently joint BJJ (Gracie Barra). I have been training for a week now and it's all about surviving. I like it. Thank you very much for your videos. The do help! Muito obrigado

  • @ivanivan5511
    @ivanivan5511 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is like super gold. What I've observed after training some years is that instructors and almost everyone else focus on TECHNIQUES but barely on CONCEPTS. Concepts come first! Learn carefully about concepts, understand them and after that learn sme few techniques, they'll greatly adapt the concepts.
    The Gracies are pretty much transmitting this idea here, they're teaching us important concepts, fundamentals. That's KEY!
    Anyway, thanks tons for sharing!

    I love this advice. I actually looked into their grandfather's beginning years in forming the Gracie Jui-jitsu style and I remember reading about him going up against these bigger opponents and constantly ending up in draws. I never thought about the fact that his goal wasn't to always "win win," to get that submission or choke. He wasn't losing so he was winning 👍🏾

Non of this juvenile attempts at the big guy image -- cursing and swearing and rude inuendos. I always feel I can sit and watch them with my wife, or with any of my children. Real ambassadors! Real men! I'm trying to implement these principals at my Barra gym and having success. Thanks a lot men!

    That’s pure gold.....”if you are not losing you win in Jiu-Jitsu.” That seems to be the essence of Helio’s philosophy. I really try to defend and shut down first and foremost when I roll. I have such a better time and I find more opportunities present themselves to me when I stay in that mind set. I can also establish my pace. I’m feeling my way through rolling intuitively instead of trying think it to a victory.

I can launch offense on fellow white belts and some blue belts. I defend a lot against some blue belts and higher. I’d say the most-used escapes for me are arm bar escapes and back control escapes.
