Another huge issue among the students who are, indeed as you observe, slow learners of the art: the rough and tough rite of passage to learn by getting smashed by better guys. Rener Gracie the lost of about 10 000 students in about a decade or so, thats bad for any buisness of this kind, especially when he noticed why ? New comers cant learn under high intense pressure, and this has been proven to be the worst way to learn, cause under maximum level of volume, no one can learn well, its like asking an amateur weightlifter to train his barbell snatch before the O games, by warming up with 150 kilo barbells, He'll break his body, injure himself, and mentally be defeated, but thats what BJJ instructors do. This year, I made progress at a pace that outclasse my last decade in grappling. Our new instructor imposes us to first train with lower belts, then intermed students, and later when possible with upperbelts. That way our body and mind has time to acclimate and recognize patterns so necessary to the evolution of our game. If I'd know this instructor a decade ago, I would have been a black belt by now, undeniably.
What about with same side grip with thumb down ?? I always teaach thumb down wrist control . Is more efective and when they open a little bite the elbow ypu can get the underhook
So hold up you're telling me that you taught one guy one technique to drill where as you taught the other a general concept and call that an apples to apples comparison? I'm still not sold. The other guy is just spamming knee slide passes, the other guy has been given more options to choose from at a very low level of proficiency. I think this type of training has its place don't get me wrong but there has to be some kind of diminishing returns involved with both types of training and implementing the other alongside would see better over all progression. I'm willing to bet in 6 months of training the guy who did half and half would progress quicker than the guy who just played games. There's nothing wrong with making money but when everyone and their mom is selling a course that revolutionizes everything and will 10x your game or what ever its obvious people aren't going to give a non-biased presentation of the methodology, they're going to try their hardest to sell a product.
This is very good means of developing very engaged, creative and fun class. It is similar to ecological approach that rob gray and greg sounders mention
The sextio is the same. But the difference is that we don’t stop every round to tell the student what we want to see. We let the person try to solve it.
I think this is analogous to automotive repair. I'm far from the most experienced, but, because I have rebuilt an engine, there are things I understand about an engine that I don't need to memorize or look up. That one engine rebuild project helped me have a very deep understanding of the basic fundamentals of how an engine works, that is far greater than memorizing a series of questions and answers. Instead of needing to read about the importance of not over-tightening bolts, I KNOW the importance of that concept because I have cost myself many extra hours of labor because of over-tightening a few bolts. I've felt the bolt snap. I don't need to memorize the importance of engine oil, because I've seen and replaced bearings and connecting rods that failed due to lack of proper lubrication. I've seen cylinder heads that were all sludged up because of infrequent oil changes. I know this isn't the perfect analogy or metaphor or whatever, but I hope what I'm saying makes sense. :)
The position of having connected hands around uke's armpit and the arm between the legs reminds me of the deep half guard position. #universalcontrolconcepts 🤙
It is interesting watching back past film as you begin to try and understand concepts for yourself. Paired w/ the fact I have already been exposed to videos released closer to todays date about how kit views BJJ and gives his reasoning behind the ideas.
I have been implementing this idea, as a person who was once lost in the sauce of details and cool techniques. But since adopting concepts and keeping my jiujitsu simpler. My growth has been sky rocketing. Pair a concept with a well made game and boom. You have everything you need. This is nothing I made. I simply implemented what you have been telling us all along.
Hey Kit ! your video instructions have been monumental to my jiu-jitsu game. It was awesome talking yo you on zoom about how you train and learn bjj. I want you to know that in August I got my purple belt!
Kit i heard you talking about this on Craig Jones' podcast, i wish more jiu jitsu instructors/ coaches/ professors taught this way as it is truly a great way to learn.
Love watching anything you post, the time I went to your seminar was one of the best I ever attended. I was a 4 stripe white belt then, now I'm a three stripe purple and I still use things I learned from you.
@@kitwarchilddale Most welcome bro. I've been to many seminars in my time, some with well-known world champions, some 5th+ degree black belts, and so many of them act like they're some sort of god when they walk in the room and it feels like they are just dialing it in. You made it fun, engaging and you acted like you were just one of us. So many of them could learn from you how to do a great seminar.
