@@zacsbarnyard7436 - that’s not really true. I know very legit black belts with less than 10 years in. Personally, it took me 16 years from white to black, and that’s honestly a long time.
I am a black belt in jiujitsu with 14 years of bjj experience. Those are the only sweeps I ever use! No need to get complicated! Fundamentals win fights! Thank you as always Professor!
I just took my first week of jujitsu classes I'm really enjoying it your videos are making it really easy to remeber the basics. I will come back to this post many times in the future.
I just had my first jiujitsu class last night and i loved it! This was a really interesting video and I appreciate videos like this to help solidify the concepts they teach in class. Thank you!
I’m only a week in this sport and I’ve been watching you. It’s insane how much I’ve learned in only a week. I’m lucky to also have an instructor like yourself to provide me with concise advice, really speeds up the journey thankfully for the internet. Thankyou for your videos
Damn professor. My wife and I are both 3 stripe white belts. My wife likes playing guard but as of this writing she has zero sweeps in her arsenal. I know she will want to have these sweeps to beef up her guard game immensely. This video will really want her to practice technique with me in our garage. We have mats.
Studied traditional Japanese jiu jitsu for a few year when I was a kid, but relied purely on being a 6ft 225lb 13yr old. This is the kind of stuff I should have learned. Fundamentals and skill will win out over power the majority of times. Great video!
@@TcBalkom took classes at the local leisure centre in the north east of England in the early 00's under sensei George (Geordie) chambers. Participated in multi school seminars. Enjoyed it, but teenage life got to be too enticing. How is it being an interner hater?
@@Mateoarredondo necro post but since I'm here. I believe I capped out at 6ft2 but given the amount of "6ft" people I meet, I figure I'm a bit taller lol
I love that last one. Been done to me so many times by higher belts. Very effective. They usually bring the arm across their body with the same side hand and then scoop the leg with the other hand. Bingo!
Im a blue belt, those are pretty much the only sweeps i use from closed guard. That knee shield to scissor sweep is what started my guard game as a white belt. Knee shield is great.
Thank you! I'm only a week into learning BJJ, but even in my inexperience this taught me a ton! I'm not a very big guy, so I'm really learning to appreciate the speed, leverage, and technicality of BJJ.
When I started off as a white belt, the third scissor sweep is what I used almost everytime. Eventually, though, the other white belts caught on and started making better bases and I couldn’t do it anymore haha
If they really base out to prevent the scissor sweep to one side, maybe you can switch to a butterfly sweep on the other side. Hook the wide based leg, hip escape to the same side, and catch them by surprise? Just spitballing :)
Awesome instructional. I've been getting worked over at my gym and decided, as a white belt, I'd just focus on sweeps for the immediate time being and wanted to hone in on 3-4 sweeps. to get familiar with. Thank you for the post!!
today's class will mark my 7th day going to Brazilian jujitsu. you video helped me sweep someone last class. my sensei was impressed will continue to come back and learn, and grow my skills. thank you for this video. 🧎🏾♂️
@@KnightJiuJitsu thank you so much it's nice that experience black belts have no problem helping newer guys learn. I was wondering if u knew any hip stretches for flexibility that's my biggest issue
These were the first ones I learned, but after a while only rolling with people like 40 lbs heavier than me I rarely even go for sweeps... needed a reminder! The scissor sweep can be so effective!
im glad to say that after 3 years of doing jiujitsu ive earned my blue belt. i just wanted to come back to this post cause this is the first one i watched. thanks knight jiujitsu. i often come here and look at your videos to give me ideas and they help alot. 🤜🤛
I love the over-under sweep. The second sweep you performed. It's simple and so effective. Yes, it's good to mix up and go for more sweeps but I've always loved this one because of how simple it is to pull off.
Dude you are an absolute badass. You're really good at breaking down the movements, better than the stuff I've watched from the gracie boys, better than anyone I've seen to be honest. Please keep doing this. You are a superb teacher.
Ive only been doing jiujitsu for about 3 and a half months. so far, the elevator sweep is the only one ive hit more than once on higher belts. thus far it is my fav sweep.
I love this channel its stays real and realistic. I've been practicing muay thai and judo since the 8th grade judo was the closest to Brazilian jujitsu I've got, these videos is Always detailed and I learn something from these videos. Great value
Thanks for showing both grips (Gi & No Gi) I think Joe Rogan said it best if you live up north where everyone is wearing jackets Gi is best for you but if you live here in Florida where I do your average street fight is going to be beach style where they take their shirt off and sweat quickly becoming super slippery to grip onto.
Thank you so much!! I joined a competition team at my studio....And I didnt know how to sweep! This saved me so much,thank you Studio : Next Level Martial Arts...Austintown, OH
It’s said that the masters of their craft are able to draw the maximum potential out of the basics. Powerful black belt “fundamental” aspects of their style start as white belt basics. Thanks for reminding me of this.
Spectacular video as always. Great sweeps expertly demonstrated. Eli Knight is definitely my favorite RU-vid Jiu Jitsu teacher. Thanks so much for all the videos.
Great stuff man, very clear instructions with minimum bullshit! Fairly new to bjj with Hokutoryu Ju-jutsu background, will most def try drilling these ones! Thank you for the video!
That first sweep was an absolute game changer for me. It really is such a simple way to "punish" someone for just trying to smash you with their shoulder 😂
Jiu jitsu is like 20% things your body does intuitively when in a ground struggle. The other 80% is fine tuning it and learning when to apply it. When I first started training, I was like “oh this is how I stopped X,Y, or Z person from murdering me years ago.”
Merci énormément ! J'adore ta chaîne qui est l'une de mes préférées, et cette vidéo vaut de l'or. Les explications et les conditions dans lesquelles effectuer ce sweep sont très bien détaillées ! Merci ! ;-)
