Wow..this is the $10000000 detail. I have watched and purchased countless of bjj videos since starting bjj in 2006 and this is the first time I watched an instructional which addressed the shoulder rising to start the hip escape and countering it with shoulder pressure. Thanks again and really appreciate your knowledge and contribution to this art .
Thank you so much! Yeah it’s crazy how much one small idea or detail can completely change a position. Hope the collar choke detail helps too, that was a major breakthrough for me
Man, the content on this video is outstanding, thank you. Ideas for other videos - anything that helps against stronger, larger individuals. What a struggle! Help please.
Absolutely love your in-depth explanation videos. Starting from "this is how you stay in this position" and then going to attack is incredibly helpful.
Jon, yours is truly *INSTRUCTIONAL CONTENT". You nail something that is difficult to hit in that you know not just what to show, but how to show it. Explanation..coaching..is often doing a good job of illustrating..with words, pictures, demonstration, etc. You paint good pictures, sir and I am thankful for the benefit of it!!
Oh I really appreciate it a lot. Hearing this kind of stuff really motivated me to keep working and seeing how far I can take the channel. Thanks so much!
Literally by far the best Jiu Jitsu channel on RU-vid. Jon Thomas so clearly has the best content. Full of details, explanations, always to the point, always good camera work.
Hi Jon, love your content - absolutely priceless when it comes to revising and going back over stuff. I'm heading to the gym tonight and when i roll i'll be focusing on mounted triangles and mounted cross chokes :D
Awesome video! Great mix of narrated sparring, comp footage and technique breakdown! Also starting with explaining a bit of how to control the position and later going in to different common reactions and attacking systems is really helpful!
I like the system you laid out. The progression makes sense and the details on adjusting based on their movement answer my questions on how they might defend. This one is going in my BJJ playlist! Thank you!
Your instructional videos are always stellar! I appreciate the details you add to each position (e.g. grip positions and body weight) as well as the clips of these techniques being used in competition. It’s apparent how much time, thought and effort is put into each one of these videos and we are all better because of it. Thank you!
I can relate to how you execute your moves and position due to being a taller/long BJJ practitioner. The details you use and teach make All the positions more comfortable and easier. Thank you
Will do! I have another huge one coming next month on The Push Pull Principle which is gonna be super fun. One of the most powerful principles in jiu jitsu to understand
please, please don't stop doing such a gold content. Sooo many helpful details, for some people it's the only opportunity to learn, I mean exactly YOUR way to explain things. Awesome!
awesome content as always. I have Recently subscribed to your lab, great resource for improving the little details in my and my students games. Also keeping upto date with new developing guard systems.
Man, I love how your insights bring a high-level understanding to regular practitioners. Honestly, every time I learn a technique or fundamentals from you it makes sense. Thank you!
Awesome upload, I loved the details and the breakdown. Great editing (I know it is a strange thing to say, but so many videos gave terrible editing or really loud music, and you cannot see or hear anything). Truly excellent, Saved, Liked & Subscribed. I loved the detailed explanation
Happy to hear it! Will be dropping new website soon with another big jiu jitsu competitor, will have tons of searchable videos and sparring footage to help in addition
