This is a channel for people who enjoy learning about, discussing and practicing Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and other grappling arts. Most of these videos were shot during the 6 AM morning BJJ class I teach at UFC GYM Huntington Beach. I have been doing various martial arts for about 25 years including wrestling, karate, boxing and Muay Thai. Primarily though I’ve been doing BJJ (off and on due to injuries) for since 2004. Over my career I've had the good fortune to train under very skilled blackbelts such as Waldimiro Perez, Brady Fink, Herb Laano, Xandao Neves and Jamie Fletcher. I received my Blackbelt under Jamie Fletcher in January of 2023. Now I am just looking to share some knowledge and improve my own game by sharpening the details of my moves through the coaching process. Hopefully the content on this channel will provide you with some knowledge or insights to help you improve your game. Thanks for watching. OSSSSS.
Your right hand is neutral. No fist. Your pulling your right elbow down into the gap there so your right hand shouldn't be hitting the mat or your own body.
Congrats on your xmartial sponsorship! My favorite rash guard is their "Starblocks". I'll definitely use your code next order I make! Keep up the great work, love seeing this channel get bigger!
Nice to see this, as a white belt I've been refining my attack from the hip bump sweep, aka hip bump into kimura, if that fails, arm bar or omaplata. If initial hip bump is crushed forward like in this vid, I tend to go for the high elbow gilly, and if that fails, then ejector seat with the 100% (or 200% if I use the cross arm grip to further pin that shoulder and arm from escaping). Is it possible to show in further vids any chain attack sequences from the hip bump please? Many thanks!
If the opponent is chin down in the direction of where the hand is placed, I tend to use my wrist on the opposite side of the chin, cut through from there to the grip (there's a Henry akins vid somewhere on it) but to buy myself time, I also tend to telephone the farside arm to keep that pinned as I work for the paper cutter. Mind you this is against other white belts such as myself so far so can't vouch if this works on higher belts
yes. this is the basic move. but the basic move rarely works past white or blue belt without a good set up. I usually set this choke up from a knee on belly. when they turn away from me to get away from my near side attacks I set my thumb in choking grip on their lapel, then I reach under their near arm with my free hand and catch the back of their collar and suck them back to make them flat. then I finish the choke form there. Ill try to do a vid on it.
Good old meat and potatoes throw that uses a super common position you'll find yourself in during self defense situations . Important to remember untrained people can't fall right , and when you are on concrete or asphalt a throw can break bones .
I think I follow Nate on Instagram, but does Josh have a page, channel, Instagram, or any socials where he posts BJJ stuff? He’s been on the channel for a while now, so I was curious if he does or not.
First comp this weekend coming up. This is going to help me a lot! Been getting stuck there trying to pass for the last few weeks. Keep up the good work!
Thanks man I loved this. I did quite well back when I wrestled doing almost nothing other than moves off the whizzer but I never learned this one. Cant wait to try this tommorw at open mat
Great. Let me know how this works for you. This was my go-to throw for years in wrestling and it transferred over great once I started doing MMA and BJJ as well. Good luck!
Great video, thank you so much. I love this sweep but it's easy to forget one or two of the little details and the way you explain it was very helpful. Totally unrelated, but since you asked what we'd like to see..what do you have for over/under passing? 🕷🕸💖
Like most moves in Jui jitsu, I find it works best when paired with other moves. Often a failed leg drag will set up an effective x pass. Or a failed torreondo may set up a clean leg drag. etc.
