@@iatsd it amazing to me when people don't know or heard of Japanese Jujitsu you see in Portuguese there is not a word called Jujitsu BJJ did not come from jujitsu it came from Judo. :)
@@tyhatfield7156 There is no martial art called "Japanese Jujitsu". Jujitsu is the generic term. There are *hundreds* of different styles/schools of jujitsu in Japan. Not a single one is called "Japanese Jujitsu".
This is fascinating. Shows the pros and cons of specializing - how Judo was specialized JJJ, then BJJ was specialized Judo, and catch wrestling was specialized, then freestyle and Greco were specialized from various wrestling sources - that makes them great at what they do, but it's also important to look at what they lost. Great video, thanks guys!
I am glad he mentioned Karate. I am a purple belt in BJJ and a black belt in Kenpo jutsu at the same school but the striking and rolling were pretty much separated. I switched to a legit Goju ryu school where the instructor blends Karate and Judo together and holy shit. I realized when you separate your striking and grappling too much there is a middle piece of the puzzle you are overlooking.
100% you need to train somewhere that does both to be truly usefull in self defence. We train both however after a long time doing it we realised grappling is never really a good idea in a self defence situation. Its too complicated striking is fast and to the point. in and out. Even basic grappling involves big body movements and complex knowledge that takes a very long time to master, if there is more that 1 opponent you are screwed. Movement is key striking is key. Dont sleep on the old martial arts that were made for war not sport they contain the true devistating moves that 100% worked in hand to hand combat where rules dont exist.
For me, I see it as situational, in that, there is a time a place for everything. I like the elements of grappling that add a clinch (for knees and elbows) and takedowns to my striking tool box. I also like the technical stand up and the punch block protection from the guard, but I would avoid going to ground in a fight by all means. I think BJJ has gotten a bit of reputation as being sport-centric compared to the Jiu-jitsu I started learning from Royce Gracie. HIs curriculum was much more like Japanese jujutsu in that the techniques were stand up based as well as ground based and included weapons disarms (some I took with a grain of salt). I think this style of jiu-jitsu is much less common in schools these days. Even Rickson cares more about if you can get out of a headlock on the ground not the latest berimbolo technique. I completely agree about the grappling and multiple opponents. Movement is key 100% @@enensis
He's a really nice guy and you could definitely tell from the video how much of a good time we had. I've had some comments saying he went hard with the subs, but it's like guys, I told you in the beginning I asked him to go hard 😅

More than two decades ago, I trained JJJ for about ten months thinking it was BJJ, because the instructor did not use a gi. I am very glad I did because I learned some pretty deadly submissions that are not part of a BJJ repertoire. I encourage cross training for all jiu-jitsu athletes. Great video!

Great seeing JJJ getting some love, very useful art when trained properly, a lot of Jjj schools in the early 2000s faught in full contact matches...it was essentialy just like mma, live the dirty wristlocks too
As someone in the arts for 47 years, a 5th Dan in Japanese Jujitsu but also a submission grappling coach and Blue Belt in BJJ (with the gi) ( also certified in other arts) I can honestly tell you it all depends on the school you train at and how the instructor teaches. There are many JJJ schools that do stuff that would never work in a real fight, under high resistance and stress. Just like there is a lot of BJJ schools that teach so much sport BJJ they would have no idea what to do if in a stairwell fighting off two people or an edge weapon attack, it’s all up to the instructor to be open to that type of learning. When I roll in BJJ even at “almost” age 55 I get tapped a lot by blue belts and higher who are good because they train only grappling, however when a few of them go to my Muay Thai class and spar I have my way with them. It’s up to the individual to learn, train what they love and enjoy it for the reason they do it. Also I know Scott personally and although he lives in a province far from me, I had him at my school teaching and his ground techniques covering all areas of grappling are very solid. Remember “ comparing martial arts styles is a mindless debate, because fraudulent techniques and ideologies are rampant amongst all of them”
I started in JJJ as well and moved to BJJ last year. I know what you mean about recognizing the techniques that work and the ones that are meant for pure sport purposes. My JJJ Sensei was very big on "functional" techniques. Our curriculum was fairly narrow, but the techniques that we focused on were the basics that worked. We also did a lot of takedowns and transitions from takedowns into the ground game. When I moved over to BJJ, I found that most of the people would prefer to start on their butt (my JJJ Sensei affectionately referred to them as "butt-scooters"). It's not that they aren't highly skilled. They just lack the confidence to engage in any standup. The gym is improving this by working in a lot more takedowns, but they just aren't there yet. And this isn't to put down BJJ. The reason I switched was because I wanted to broaden by techniques. I am very good at the basics that I was originally taught, but I have so much more to learn about the ground game. They all have their place, but recognizing their limitations is key.
well said! definitely depends on the school you train at! I trained in Kano Jujutsu (japanese jujutsu, a really good school) for 10 years which was referred to as combat judo, and the throws are very similiar to Judo but more nasty versions with strikes to setup throws and alot of nasty submissions, and I look at other japanese jujutsu schools online that look like a joke, things that would never work in a real fight situation. These other schools that are not legit give JJJ a bad name thats for sure!
I am a black belt in Japanese Jujitsu in a school that focused more on the standup, joint locks and throws with minimal grappling and thought It would be an easy transition into BJJ. Wow wasn't I wrong, starting BJJ 1.5years ago it was very humbling tapping to white belts. Scott was definitely right JJJ is "Jack of all trades, master of none".
"wow was I wrong" not wasn't. JJJ is really different in terms of practical application vs BJJ. My train fight video is on my channel. I'm controlling someone who's in way better shape than me because he had no experience in grappling. I hadn't trained in yrs and was way out of shape, and still manhandled him like he was a child.

Jordan's videos are great, and I've learned a lot just watching them, although to see him struggling a little and enjoying this one is very funny. Jordan, Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Legal? Sometimes I think competitions, like those hosted by IBJFF, are bad for Brazilian Jiu jitsu because we start to think in terms of “legal” or not 🤷🏾♂️
At the end of the day we are all just “grapplers.” If you are pressure testing your grappling, then it’s legit. Also, his ears tell you everything you need to know
I purchased some LMNT salt with your link! I was just looking at it a few days ago because of the high temps this summer. Excited to try it out now with your endorsement.
I request a second part where he teaches you weapons (assuming his koryu uses some). Also, I remember learning that neck crank as a child but I've never been able to use it in bjj because it's actually very very hard to get to that position against a trained grappler, I do land wristlocks once in a while tho
Most Japanese Jujitsu with any modern application taught these days tends not to be Koryu. It’s just hard to find is all. That being said, I’ve seen Gendai styles teach lots of weapons stuff.
Thanks sirs for a great video thank you! I train Japanese Ju jitsu and we’re lucky that our teacher/style has really worked hard in all areas of JJJ. so we mainly focus 50% on stand up grappling (throws/sweeps/join locks) 35% ground fighting and 15% striking. We do randori and we roll as well as striking sparring and putting it all together which I know is a big criticism of JJJ is that they don’t spar but that’s down to the individual teachers/dojos we are lucky that we do it all and this compliments my taekwondo really well.
Aw I appreciate that! It's always so cool to me that I just make these on my labtop and then they get viewed by thousands. Blows my mind. Glad you enjoy my work 🙂
We taught these moves in Relson's Dojo in 97. Nothing new here bro. Technique at 5:15. Augment with finger lock. See, it's all just Tuite. If the Gracie's lack something it is Kyusho and Tuite as one...
Awesome and informative vid! In VA here looking into taking JJJ but there isn’t much in my area in the way of JJJ. What style JJJ does Scott specialize in?
Fun techniques. I have a couple of friends who do the JJJ and they are always really fun. I feel like they do a lot more fundamentals but there's a ton of small details in there that makes it extra spicy. And yeah... Wrists tend to hurt after rolling with them. Haha
Thanks for the instructional video, your meticulous commentary session really helped me improve my skills. If it is ok, could you make tutorials on knee on belly escape?
One of my purple belts is a bb in jjj … I think there is a huge difference in curriculum from teacher to teacher because his Jim Jitsu sucked until he started training w us..
I think the majority of Japanese Jiujtisu is low level grappling but there are definitely some great JJJ grapplers. Similar to karate it's the quality control that's the issue rather than the arts themselves.
So I did Japanese Jujitsu - as I was told it was - which was WJJF. And after a little bit, I left the dojo. Yes, it was great cardio, lots of atemi waza combined with ne waza and I learned lots of cool moves (with moves similar to BJJ) that would be amazing, except I wasn't allowed to pressure test them as sparring wasn't allowed as it was "too dangerous". I am surprised to see a Japanese Jujitsu dojo different to the one I went to - this feels so much like a bit more of a violent BJJ.
@@PR101techniques in JJJ are great man but are really dangerous to test it with full resistance like a Judo randori , because if a JJJ teacher would to that ,he would have a big amount of lawsuits and no students anymore.
As a Black Belt in multiple arts including both versions of Jiu Jitsu I use that bicep control wrist lock all the time, even if I don't get a tap they think twice about that hand placement the next time. I find wrist locks all over the place all the time.
With the ‘both hands on biceps wrist lock from closed guard” pressure can be increased to the wrist lock by guard player putting a foot on opponents hip and pinching knee behind the shoulder on same side as wrist lock is applied. This further isolates the wrist by controlling both joints above the lock. As a small player, this has been high percentage for me from white to black belt. 🤙🏼🤙🏼🙏🏼
People start to realise that BJJ is a small part of Jiu Jitsu or Ju Jutsu like the original name is. Those dirty techniques are savage and have only the purpose to injury your opponent with significant damage , thats why jigoro kano made his kano jiu jitsu into judo , to make it more safe for people to practice it every day. I think it very good that Jordan shows this so people can see where BJJ came from.
I have sparred with Sensei Scott before as a fellow Canadian Japanese Jiu-Jitsu practitioner I can confirm that we are kind of a jack of all master of none. My classmates and I were discussing and a black belt in JJJ is probably somewhere between a blue and purple belt BJJ practitioner (closer to blue), a green belt Karateka, and an orange belt Judoka. So we are worse than any of those disciplines in their respective fields but we have a great all around skill set.
This is one of my favorites from you, if not the favorite. You have to follow up with future rolls and see if you can incorporate these moves. I'll be waiting...
Awesome submissions. Learning from other styles is an illuminating experience. JJJ has very effective techniques, it's usually only the training style of a particular dojo that hampers its application. But the techniques are legit. Also, he reminds me of Krillin from DBZ.
The trouble is there’s next to no such thing as “Japanese jiu-jitsu”, it’s a misnomer, or if it does exist, it’s something extremely minority like Morris dancing in the U.K. Here’s the thing: in Japan, there’s judo (obviously very mainstream in education system) and increasingly BJJ. What we in the west call “Japanese jiu-jitsu” is stuff put together in the 1970s in Germany, Switzerland, U.K. and USA by westerners who had black belts or just some experience in aikido, judo, karate etc. It’s just another form of marketing, harking back to samurai. Seriously, any JJJ club or Sensei I’ve politely asked in the west hasn’t been able to cite the origin or hombu back in Japan. The more serious point is that it’s almost unfair on the Japanese to refer to JJJ (as something implied to be inferior to BJJ). JJJ, now = judo and kosen judo. Love your channel btw!
I couldn't have said it any better myself! And if folks want a little clarification on this they can look up the jujitsu international federation where they will find links to German leagues of jujitsu, and British jujitsu with those having clear records of how they got started and their efforts to make a viable sportive practice of self defense and fighting. Also here in the United States there is the United States Jujitsu Federation which has taken many steps to modernize over the last five years. Although USJJF is still weird about their curriculum/syllabus of techniques for their "BJJ/ Ne waza jujitsu "
Ya definitely. The end of the video covers it a bit. Basically japanese jiujitsu is an all encompassing term. Judo came from it and BJJ came from judo. There's so many styles of Japanese jiujitsu that is basically just means martial arts at this point.
When I first started bjj we had a Japanese Jiu-Jitsu 4th dan black belt and brown in bjj. Every one's wrist got jacked up to say the least. Even when demonstrating he liked to really make you suffer. I got caught in my first wrist lock in competition not long ago. Cassio Francis has a sweet one from side control. He caught 4 of us that day and I even knew he wanted it. We laughed after and he said I did good avoiding it. For a while.....
I have a white belt level question. It seems like almost all wrist locks require either wrist to wrist contact or to have your opponents wrist trapped in the elbow. Is that pretty accurate for most all wrist locks?
Almost all of them require the opponent's elbow to be against a solid surface, most frequently a mat (or your own body, such as from Closed Guard). Then you can enact the pressure on the wrist properly.
First off Jordan, congrats on passing 160K! That's an amazing accomplishment. 👋👋👋 Secondly, man that's brutal! I guess I always saw Japanese Jiu-Jitsu (JJJ) as the precursor to Judo, and the reason it was invented. JJJ has undoubtedly undergone modifications over the years, but this demonstration would seem to demonstrate how JJJ could very easily originate from the original martial art meant to cause significant disability or death. And BJJ as I recall was derived from Judo, with greater focus on the Newaza techniques. The demo was outstanding, but needless to say I am not interested in facing someone using JJJ techniques. Thanks for putting yourself through the grind here to highlight JJJ. Do you plan to modify some of the techniques you learned for MMA fights down the road? 👊 I would imagine even in rash guard wrestling, most of them would be illegal. 😉😂
Thanks man! Those twisting wrist locks are something I've never even tried before. I'm definitely going to see if I can pull them off. It seems the only wrist locks in BJJ that are utilized are the goose neck ones. I really like the one from kesa too to get the wrist bent. It's savage haha.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu looks just like Judo, because it is Basically Just Judo. When Mitsuyo Maeda, a.k.a. "Conde Koma", began teaching Carlos Gracie in Belem do Para, Brazil in 1917, he was teaching Jigoro Kano's Jiu-Jitsu direct from the Kodokan in Japan. The name "Judo" was not popularized until 1925. Mitsuyo Maeda was a Kodokan Judo instructor whose specialty was ground fighting (newaza). This type of ground-only fighting is often referred to as Kosen Judo, or High School Judo, because it was popularized in Japanese High Schools as a form of interscholastic wrestling. Kosen Judo rules allowed direct transition to newaza, enabling scenarios where one less skilled competitor could drag the other down to the ground (a tactic now known as "pulling-guard" in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu). There is absolutely no question that the Gracie family demonstrated great skill and marketing acumen by promoting "Gracie Jiu-Jitsu" or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to the masses. Helio Gracie's loss to Kodokan Judoka Masahiko Kimura was advertised as a "moral victory". More importantly, the Gracies sponsored the original Ultimate Fighting Championships when the world was begging for a professional combat sport with more depth than Boxing and more realism than the WWF. However, there is now a generation of Jiu-Jitsu students who only know half the story. Worse yet, they are often paying enormous prices for the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu name only to learn a subset of Jigoro Kano's original Jiu-Jitsu techniques and teaching methods. (By judokai.net)

Jordan's videos are great, and I've learned a lot just watching them, although to see him struggling a little and enjoying this one is very funny.
Jordan, Thank you for sharing your knowledge
Hahah thanks man! It was fun being on the other side of the submissions this time :)
Great video. I love wrist locks, too. Thank you Jordan.
Thanks for the additional LMNT ❤️ love your channel.
New concepts that are legal in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Love it.
Legal? Sometimes I think competitions, like those hosted by IBJFF, are bad for Brazilian Jiu jitsu because we start to think in terms of “legal” or not 🤷🏾♂️
At the end of the day we are all just “grapplers.” If you are pressure testing your grappling, then it’s legit. Also, his ears tell you everything you need to know
This is gold cheers !
I purchased some LMNT salt with your link! I was just looking at it a few days ago because of the high temps this summer. Excited to try it out now with your endorsement.
I really do enjoy it! I think you will too. I sweat like crazy when training and can really feel a difference. Almost like I crave an LMNT after.

Jiu-Jitsu is a form of BDSM.
Fascinating. Which style of classical JJ is Scott a hanshi in?
Love this . Especially the wisdom and attitude , of learning and integrating the best tevhniques , from all martial arts .
I request a second part where he teaches you weapons (assuming his koryu uses some).
Also, I remember learning that neck crank as a child but I've never been able to use it in bjj because it's actually very very hard to get to that position against a trained grappler, I do land wristlocks once in a while tho
I definitely gotta make a video with weapons either with him or whoever I can find :)
I do some weapons. But I have few friends that are good with knives and sticks
Most Japanese Jujitsu with any modern application taught these days tends not to be Koryu. It’s just hard to find is all. That being said, I’ve seen Gendai styles teach lots of weapons stuff.
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu James Williams of Nami Ryu specializes in how weapons created jujitsu.
Amazing moves ! Saving this one for sure ! Huge respect to both of you 🤙🏾
This was awesome!!!
Thanks for taking one for the team!
Haha worth it, as I type this with my super sore wrist lol
This awesome! Thank you 🙏
The crucifix neck crank seemed to me like something out of Stu Hart's dungeon, very cool 😎
Thanks sirs for a great video thank you! I train Japanese Ju jitsu and we’re lucky that our teacher/style has really worked hard in all areas of JJJ. so we mainly focus 50% on stand up grappling (throws/sweeps/join locks) 35% ground fighting and 15% striking. We do randori and we roll as well as striking sparring and putting it all together which I know is a big criticism of JJJ is that they don’t spar but that’s down to the individual teachers/dojos we are lucky that we do it all and this compliments my taekwondo really well.
I got my black belt in JJJ back in the early 80's. We sparred a lot. Often 2 or 3 on 1. It was great.
Hey Jordan! Just want to say that I watch every single one of your videos, and I appreciate what you do!
Aw I appreciate that! It's always so cool to me that I just make these on my labtop and then they get viewed by thousands. Blows my mind. Glad you enjoy my work 🙂
We taught these moves in Relson's Dojo in 97. Nothing new here bro. Technique at 5:15. Augment with finger lock. See, it's all just Tuite. If the Gracie's lack something it is Kyusho and Tuite as one...
Many thanks for this amazing video. Loveed it!!!
Awesome and informative vid! In VA here looking into taking JJJ but there isn’t much in my area in the way of JJJ. What style JJJ does Scott specialize in?
This was awesome! Thanks
Glad you liked it!
@4:46 i have been doing that move for a long time. There is bunch of good moves I call that position the Hallelujah
Thx for the video .
Fun techniques. I have a couple of friends who do the JJJ and they are always really fun.
I feel like they do a lot more fundamentals but there's a ton of small details in there that makes it extra spicy.
And yeah... Wrists tend to hurt after rolling with them. Haha
Haha my thoughts exactly man. And they're great training partners, too!
Awesome upload 👍 not your typical jiu jitsu video.
Thanks man! Always trying to make new and fresh content :)
these wrist lock were really cool, I have to watch it again !
Shares similarities with CACC (Catch As Catch Can) including the pain ingredient
I'll be doing a video like this with a catch wrestler next month 👊
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu … Thank You & Yes Sir I subbed 🙏🏽👊
such simple concepts that noone seems to think of...awesome
Thanks for the instructional video, your meticulous commentary session really helped me improve my skills. If it is ok, could you make tutorials on knee on belly escape?
One of my purple belts is a bb in jjj … I think there is a huge difference in curriculum from teacher to teacher because his Jim Jitsu sucked until he started training w us..
I think the majority of Japanese Jiujtisu is low level grappling but there are definitely some great JJJ grapplers. Similar to karate it's the quality control that's the issue rather than the arts themselves.
So I did Japanese Jujitsu - as I was told it was - which was WJJF. And after a little bit, I left the dojo. Yes, it was great cardio, lots of atemi waza combined with ne waza and I learned lots of cool moves (with moves similar to BJJ) that would be amazing, except I wasn't allowed to pressure test them as sparring wasn't allowed as it was "too dangerous". I am surprised to see a Japanese Jujitsu dojo different to the one I went to - this feels so much like a bit more of a violent BJJ.
@@PR101techniques in JJJ are great man but are really dangerous to test it with full resistance like a Judo randori , because if a JJJ teacher would to that ,he would have a big amount of lawsuits and no students anymore.
You're the best, thank you!
As a Black Belt in multiple arts including both versions of Jiu Jitsu I use that bicep control wrist lock all the time, even if I don't get a tap they think twice about that hand placement the next time. I find wrist locks all over the place all the time.
With the ‘both hands on biceps wrist lock from closed guard” pressure can be increased to the wrist lock by guard player putting a foot on opponents hip and pinching knee behind the shoulder on same side as wrist lock is applied. This further isolates the wrist by controlling both joints above the lock.
As a small player, this has been high percentage for me from white to black belt. 🤙🏼🤙🏼🙏🏼
That's sweet it's ground aikido super nice 👍
Bingo. You guys hit the nail right on the head. I try to use the learn from all kinds of people in every aspect of my life.
Completely understand this. The one thing I remember from attending a JJJ seminar years ago…sore wrists😂
the joker choke from closed guard works perfectly for me! was able to get it fairly well in practice rolls.
Love the video, traditional JuJutsu is so under appreciated.
People start to realise that BJJ is a small part of Jiu Jitsu or Ju Jutsu like the original name is. Those dirty techniques are savage and have only the purpose to injury your opponent with significant damage , thats why jigoro kano made his kano jiu jitsu into judo , to make it more safe for people to practice it every day. I think it very good that Jordan shows this so people can see where BJJ came from.
This video was educational. Definitely learned alot from watching it.
Great content thanks! Do you have a take on how to get to that top crucifix used for the neck crank/collar choke?
Loved this!
🙏
I have sparred with Sensei Scott before as a fellow Canadian Japanese Jiu-Jitsu practitioner I can confirm that we are kind of a jack of all master of none. My classmates and I were discussing and a black belt in JJJ is probably somewhere between a blue and purple belt BJJ practitioner (closer to blue), a green belt Karateka, and an orange belt Judoka. So we are worse than any of those disciplines in their respective fields but we have a great all around skill set.
Those belts seems like fundamental skills and enough to defend yourself . Japanse Jiu Jitsu is very versatile 🥋🇯🇵⛩️🙏
@@dylan_krishna_777 agreed
Great video. I have been doing jujutsu for years and yes it has great wrist locks.
please tell me you had a live roll. i want to see what these look like in context.
Skills,big smile and respect! Awesome to watch 🙏
Thank you!
This is one of my favorites from you, if not the favorite. You have to follow up with future rolls and see if you can incorporate these moves. I'll be waiting...
Your closing statement was perfect thanks Jordan!
Renshi Scott Taylor is the best. I have been subject to many of those wrist locks 😂 they are not fun lol but they're definitely awesome.
in 4:10 key of the Sankyo tecnique in the Aikido
Outstanding work gentleman 👍
👊
Awesome submissions. Learning from other styles is an illuminating experience. JJJ has very effective techniques, it's usually only the training style of a particular dojo that hampers its application. But the techniques are legit. Also, he reminds me of Krillin from DBZ.
I am ALL ABOUT the wrist locks!!!🥋🥋🥋
The arm bar use the foot on his neck, can use in ibjj match?
I'm a small guy, and boy do I love some sneaky techniques that I can use.
Definitely wrist locks are something to explore!
Legit stuff, always to be open minded to everything, I like them wristlocks 😂
Where is this place located
You guys are fantastic. Thank you!
Wow so many new wrist locks!! Thanks Jordan
I am not gonna lie Japanese jujitsu is the friend you want in a real street fight
Amazing video, really loved it 💪feel inspired 😅
Nice moves, Thanks for information. 👍
The trouble is there’s next to no such thing as “Japanese jiu-jitsu”, it’s a misnomer, or if it does exist, it’s something extremely minority like Morris dancing in the U.K.
Here’s the thing: in Japan, there’s judo (obviously very mainstream in education system) and increasingly BJJ. What we in the west call “Japanese jiu-jitsu” is stuff put together in the 1970s in Germany, Switzerland, U.K. and USA by westerners who had black belts or just some experience in aikido, judo, karate etc. It’s just another form of marketing, harking back to samurai.
Seriously, any JJJ club or Sensei I’ve politely asked in the west hasn’t been able to cite the origin or hombu back in Japan.
The more serious point is that it’s almost unfair on the Japanese to refer to JJJ (as something implied to be inferior to BJJ). JJJ, now = judo and kosen judo.
Love your channel btw!
I couldn't have said it any better myself! And if folks want a little clarification on this they can look up the jujitsu international federation where they will find links to German leagues of jujitsu, and British jujitsu with those having clear records of how they got started and their efforts to make a viable sportive practice of self defense and fighting.
Also here in the United States there is the United States Jujitsu Federation which has taken many steps to modernize over the last five years. Although USJJF is still weird about their curriculum/syllabus of techniques for their "BJJ/ Ne waza jujitsu "
Awesome video! Could we get some content talking about the differences between Japanese & Brazilian jiu jitsu?
Ya definitely. The end of the video covers it a bit. Basically japanese jiujitsu is an all encompassing term. Judo came from it and BJJ came from judo. There's so many styles of Japanese jiujitsu that is basically just means martial arts at this point.
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu JJJ is basically MMA then.
@@3duConstantinoJapanese Ju-jutsu is like Combat Sambo. JJJ have striking, grappling, joint locks and also weapons combat
@@tacticalcombatfighter2787 Yeah except Combat sambo striking is more similar to kickboxing, and their grappling is more similar to judo/wrestling.
When I first started bjj we had a Japanese Jiu-Jitsu 4th dan black belt and brown in bjj. Every one's wrist got jacked up to say the least. Even when demonstrating he liked to really make you suffer.
I got caught in my first wrist lock in competition not long ago. Cassio Francis has a sweet one from side control. He caught 4 of us that day and I even knew he wanted it. We laughed after and he said I did good avoiding it. For a while.....
What style of JJJ does he do ?
Dirty wrist locker is Awesome!
dope "wristlock" patch in his Gi too.........wristlockers unite.
I have a white belt level question. It seems like almost all wrist locks require either wrist to wrist contact or to have your opponents wrist trapped in the elbow. Is that pretty accurate for most all wrist locks?
Almost all of them require the opponent's elbow to be against a solid surface, most frequently a mat (or your own body, such as from Closed Guard). Then you can enact the pressure on the wrist properly.
First off Jordan, congrats on passing 160K! That's an amazing accomplishment. 👋👋👋
Secondly, man that's brutal! I guess I always saw Japanese Jiu-Jitsu (JJJ) as the precursor to Judo, and the reason it was invented. JJJ has undoubtedly undergone modifications over the years, but this demonstration would seem to demonstrate how JJJ could very easily originate from the original martial art meant to cause significant disability or death. And BJJ as I recall was derived from Judo, with greater focus on the Newaza techniques.
The demo was outstanding, but needless to say I am not interested in facing someone using JJJ techniques. Thanks for putting yourself through the grind here to highlight JJJ. Do you plan to modify some of the techniques you learned for MMA fights down the road? 👊 I would imagine even in rash guard wrestling, most of them would be illegal. 😉😂
Thanks man! Those twisting wrist locks are something I've never even tried before. I'm definitely going to see if I can pull them off. It seems the only wrist locks in BJJ that are utilized are the goose neck ones. I really like the one from kesa too to get the wrist bent. It's savage haha.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu looks just like Judo, because it is Basically Just Judo. When Mitsuyo Maeda, a.k.a. "Conde Koma", began teaching Carlos Gracie in Belem do Para, Brazil in 1917, he was teaching Jigoro Kano's Jiu-Jitsu direct from the Kodokan in Japan. The name "Judo" was not popularized until 1925.
Mitsuyo Maeda was a Kodokan Judo instructor whose specialty was ground fighting (newaza). This type of ground-only fighting is often referred to as Kosen Judo, or High School Judo, because it was popularized in Japanese High Schools as a form of interscholastic wrestling. Kosen Judo rules allowed direct transition to newaza, enabling scenarios where one less skilled competitor could drag the other down to the ground (a tactic now known as "pulling-guard" in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu).
There is absolutely no question that the Gracie family demonstrated great skill and marketing acumen by promoting "Gracie Jiu-Jitsu" or Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to the masses. Helio Gracie's loss to Kodokan Judoka Masahiko Kimura was advertised as a "moral victory". More importantly, the Gracies sponsored the original Ultimate Fighting Championships when the world was begging for a professional combat sport with more depth than Boxing and more realism than the WWF. However, there is now a generation of Jiu-Jitsu students who only know half the story. Worse yet, they are often paying enormous prices for the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu name only to learn a subset of Jigoro Kano's original Jiu-Jitsu techniques and teaching methods.

gorgeous techniques
very cool....thank you.
Glad you liked it!
What I learned from Jordan today is that a good friend will use his heel on my neck!
This was great. More crossover vids would be appreciated
This was pretty cool. Im going to try that choke (not the neck crank tho). Love your guys growth mentalities.
"Turns out he really likes wrist locks", his handle isn't dirty demon wristlocker for nothing!
Great video, Renshi Taylor is awesome
Good stuff as always! Keep it coming Jordan!
Thanks man!
That was awesome thank you very much
Our pleasure 👊
