Had an absolute blast on here and really appreciate the conversation, my friend!

Great interview. Coach Eli has helped me progress (with his videos) more than any other bjj youtube channel. I can listen to him talk martial arts all day. Thank you! 👊🏼

Rip his hoodie. I remember my gi was still wet one day and i used my hoodie for class and it was never the same haha

Stand up and fight like real men

Solid advice!

Excellent timing for the new year! I’m not doing enough, but I’m not tapped out! Thanks for the trigger.

Clean

Ohh ye ohhh ye ohhh ye ohhhh ye

Congrats 🎉

Lightning Speed King!🔥💪🏽💯🥋🔥

Practice, practice, practice.

Aikido, Japanese jujutsu, and hapkido usually give more detailed instruction and time devoted to ukemi than judo usually does. Judo is more of an ukemi crash course ime. That and the injury rate is much lower in those than judo which is also something to consider. I actually started training aikido to get more ukemi practice for judo. I think the people you were talking to just didn't want to recommend a martial art that wasn't a combat sport. Which makes sense for fighting, but this is falling we're talking about.

1:12:30 if you don’t treat everyone with respect then it means you are just being a bully to the ones you don’t. This is a very valuable thought.

Congratulations!🎉

Lol. A 10 on 2 is the same w hands or feet ot seems lollllll

Quick!🔥💪🏽

Smooth and Skilled Move🔥💥💪🏽

Wow! This is so interesting! I’m sharing to have people hear this.

I love how genuine "That was awesome!" was. So hyped and engaged🤘

Good stuff. Enjoyed listening in.

IMO Donovan had the most capable and variable ukemi of anyone I've ever seen in the Aikido world.

Great interview, thank you for doing it with Bruce Bookman Sensei.

I agree. Ukemi -both mae & ushiro, plus the breakfalls is an added bonus to anyone on the mat or the street.

For me it's remembering what i learned and being able to apply it during a roll. Too many places teach too many things in a single class and move on to teaching new things in the following class. Even if you do remember, when it comes to rolling it's totally different. All of a sudden you can't do what you practiced because there's resistance from your opponent. Schools need to stick to what's the most effective in different positions and forget about the hundreds of fancy techniques. I fear not the man who has practiced 10,000 kicks once, but I fear the man who has practiced one kick 10,000 times. - Bruce Lee

Takeaways I got 1. Journal. Journal the things that were taught in class. Journal what you had success with. Journal what you want to work on. Refine your journaling preferences. I think journaling might be a high leverage addition to get the most out of Jiu jitsu classes. And I think visualization helps, too. It’s a good way to practice technique without needing a partner. 2. Look up help on the internet

Spot on Sul. Cross training gives a great perspective on what you're doing. An instructor can, and should, offer advice. An instructor should not give orders or pass ultimatums the extend beyond the walls of their school. Go out and find your path.

Subscribed ! Loved this. Bravo to you for getting out there and PUTTING YOURSELF OUT THERE. I am no master, but that’s probably the hardest step, and you did that. So keep going. Ignore the haters and boom, you’re already doing another thing - getting feedback. You’re killing it. I’m also interested in Summer Seminar for the Ukemi and Weapons seminar. If you ever come to Boston, you can stay at my place for free (in the heart and center of Boston, and I’ll stay somewhere else (over my parents or brothers place)). Hold a seminar at Kanai’s dojo. I’ll buy you the plane tickets ! You know me by now. I have a lot to say 😆 be well, go get em’ 🙏🥋

Great point. You can't hold yourself back by focusing on other people's best version of you. Good talk

Great Tips King! Making it a game takes the edge off for sure💞🥋💪🏽 Same applies in other areas of life too.

Good video. Very useful!

i would if gyms weren’t expensive as all hell. rather stay a white belt and learn off youtube 😂

Shit gay and awkward

To don the gi, or to shed its weighty weave, That is the quandary, the choice we conceive. In grappling's dance, with skill and with might, Doth clothed or bare unveil our true fight. With fabric's embrace, we gain grip and hold, Yet sans it, agility doth unfold. So ponder, thou warrior, in thine art's quest, To gi or not to gi, therein doth rest.

I love the referee dragging you guys back in while you’re still in guard🤣

Got those legs up and locked away tho and thats what counts. Bottom game is what actually determines if you can defend.props

It’s really really stupid!!!!

That’s wild, no technique, can you even call that jiu jitsu?

Not impressive

Lol lol lol open age I give it to the old timer the youngster better bring the heat

The right leg kick is a little wide. The guard was down on both hands. Left hand was slightly weaker on the left jab cross and the right hook had power but was thrown a little wild.

How long was today's training?

Pretty slow combo tbh

That front door shouldn't move sideways when you transition that's asking for a straight punch down the pipe

Dude is twice his age and then some not impressed

dude just choked uncle Frank from home alone

Sick transition to the back

A kid competing with a grandpa. Nothing impressive to see here.

Very cool!! 👏👏🦾🔥
