Dear Keenan, find your way onto the joe Rogan experience, if love to hear your thought on jujitsu for a solid three hours
preach
this
pleeeeeeeease
Do it!
Jiujitsu
Im 62 years young started bjj 2 years ago, almost quit several times due to injuries, pacing myself and taking days in between off has helped me recover from strains and reduces my risk of injuring myself. I sometimes just train and skip rolling especially with the younger crowd but love the art and plan on continuing for years to come. I condition my body with light weight training and yoga for flexibility and swimming for endurance. Ju jit su has helped me stay younger longer thanks!
Firas zahabi said the book supple leopard helped him get rid all his injuries
Hey Rick, I was wondering whether to take up bjj but felt too old to start at 36. Your post has made me rethink this. Thank you
@@MrDeano8888 36 not so old. Cmon guy. You obv need testosterone replacement with an attitude like that
Rick Monsour just showing up and drilling you will 100% get better. No need to roll with anyone who might injure you!
@@MrDeano8888 I think so. I dd jiu jitsu in my twenty's and tried in my 30's you have to be extremely cautious and understand your body. Take it light, tap early, don't be afraid to stop early and work on early defense. The recovery is much slower at our age, please be careful!
Can you make the logo a bit bigger? Cant really see it
Lol, funny in that it also looks pretty close to the old the Procter And Gamble logo as well. I don't think that's an accident.
@@Truthseeker1961 You're absolutely right. Blue circle absolutely is an original and unique concept. You must know about a lot about design.
@@karolmarcinkowski728 he said the "old" logo for a reason. It used to be a half moon with a bunch of stars between the peaks much like the logo is here with the bird and stars..
I was really squinting to make it out. I think maybe center of the video would be best.
The secret shortcut: Show up to class!
Exactly !
@ There would always be guys around who won't allow you to do all time flow-roll or soft. They will give you hard time;)
BS. That's like saying to graduate from college, all you have to do is show up to class. It takes a lot of hard work, studying, learning, unlearning, etc.
wow.. I could hear Keenan explaining jiu jitsu for hours.. really nice conceptual insights here..
Same. How long is this Q&A video on the site? How many more are there like it? The open format conceptual stuff like this is the most helpful IMO.
I'm taking my first jiu-jitsu class this Wednesday! I've been wanting to for years, and i'm so excited to start this journey!
how did it go?
Got his neck broken first roll. Sad story
seth Jim to your first 6 or so months you'll get tapped every day but it's totally worth it, don't quit even if you suck
keep turning up.
seth Jim keep turning up
His shortcut was to train at jiujutsu with supportive friends in non-competitive environment while at young age. I think it comes to playfulness, less ego, more fun.

Dear friend, I live in Brazil and I have a social project for 8 years, I give classes for free and now we are building a big shed for the children, it would be possible for you to come to Brazil, we could do a seminar together ... Thank you
I believe his email and his facebook are the best ways to contact him. Best of luck!
Seriously, this guy Feu BJJ has one of the BEST BJJ channels. They are in Portuguese but Google can put English subtitles up. I highly recommend. FEU, VOCE É O CARA, MANO!!!!!
up
Respect
@@ryanimpink13 Ha ha I just tried the subtitles, they are hilarious "my mothers daughter pressing the power down the hand..."
Recently I started just picking one technique a month and focusing on that one single technique for an entire month. How to apply it to big guys, little guys, fast guys, different variations of it, different positions I can apply it, combinations with other techniques, and how to defend it when applied on me and how to reverse it if possible. I still do other techniques, but I focus on just one for a month. It has upped my game tremedously. Not that I'm good, I still suck, but it has allowed me to get a lot better. Yes, it doesn't mean you cover as many techniques, but we have a lifetime to learn, hopefully, so there's not rush.
Jason Downs I know it’s crazy late but I’ve been doing this the last few months and I feel like I have improved tremendously. You begin to see the opportunities for moves that you never noticed before.
Where do you look for the techniques
I'm a white belt and I have been really pleasantly surprised by how cool the higher belts are. They want the beginners to lean and make an effort to teach you.
Very insightful. Clearly an excellent teacher, particularly impressed with his focus on using technique in a way that works for your body type. Don't hear that much in jiu jitsu class. Seems more a "one size fits all" approach.
Dbunkr55 agreed!
I heard and actor once say: It's taken me 20 years to become an "overnight sensation"! There is no pills, magic potions, secret ways to become a good/great player. Hard work and dedication gets you there, hard work and dedication keeps you there. Lastly, remember that there is someone else training as hard or harder than you. Enjoy your journey.
this guy knows what he's talking about
I’m a 43 yr old white belt with one yt stripe n just got my first fractured rib….shyt hurts like hell, but I still do as many drills as I can n No rolling till I’m healed. I’m never giving up OSS 🤙🏿
So the secret is: there is no secret.
It's years of practice to calibrate every detail of every technique.
This exactly. When Ben Hogan was asked what the secret to his golf swing was he would respond, "the secret is in the dirt". Meaning relentless practice.
What an amazingly helpful principle right there; the idea of making your move instantly after the grips so as to advance the game beyond the grip fighting phase and immediately into the offensive/defensive dynamic. No doubt something Lloyd Irvin taught him. That mans entire game was about being one step faster than your opponent in the context of transitions
This was probably the best video I've seen of yours recently. I think I have a bias towards conceptual exploration though.
That was the quickest 11 minute video I’ve ever watched. I just started doing BJJ about a month ago and I’m hooked
JohnWicksPencil I just had my first class last night and I’m already hooked. What an awesome martial art. Stay safe and God bless!
IronNgardens thanks man, you as well. Enjoy
Keenan, I'd like to hear your thoughts on the 'studying' part of BJJ. Many people (me included) tend to go down the rabbit hole acquiring a ton of technique videos and DVDs and overloading with studying.
When you say "Studying and rolling a lot is the most optimal", what do you mean by studying exactly? Watching matches and trying to emulate what you see? Only studying things that apply to the few techniques you know now (i.e. mastering a few things)? Constantly studying new techniques? Observing analysis videos like BJJScout?
What is the best way to actually study and have it be useful?
I think that he primarily means that if you just smash information into your head, be it from your instructor or dvds or youtube videos, and you don't practice them enough and test them when rolling, you're not going to learn.
dn a pretty much what my brother tells his fighters for striking. watch, see what you see yourself doing. see what your weakness is. film yourself rolling and break it down to what you could have done. it's a tree, you do one move and it can branch off to many different moves of your choice. experiment with different techniques
Imo study is only as important as its application. Your better off learning one good technique and practising that, in saying that is the content your studying good? Does it have decades of backing behind it, or is it just some fluke move that won't fit your body type.
Aim for less moves of good quality and practice them often. Fundamental chokes, passes and mechanics are always best.
Pedro Sauer is an excellent source for the above.
Kindest in your journey

I'm going to disagree with one of the most talented people in the game: I believe flow rolling where you literally let people go to positions with minimal resistance is ok, particularly if it's only a very small part of your game. Because it lets people feel what it's like to get those positions and travel into areas of body movement that they wouldn't ordinarily be able to get to in ordinary rolling scenarios. As long long as it's done with intentionality and you are both aware of what's happening. Good movement training!
No bs straight to the point🙌🏾
this is like the exact opposite of John Danaher's approach which is like, identify and drill the fundamentals constantly then focus on everything else
Man, Keenan is such a positive and knowledgeable Jiu jujitsu practitioner. Gives motivation to the lower ranks.
CLICKBAIT!!!! We asked for shortcuts and Keenan said "Hard work!"
Basically practice a lot, study a lot, use proper technique and understand fundamentals.
Keenan's flow roll sounds a lot like what we call positional sparring minus the class setting.
2:35 there is no shortcut 🤔 what about that click bait title tho
Honestly I already thought the title was bs before clicking. Just wanted to see what he had to say.
Very enlightening..good teacher!
Keenan: Just roll for fastest progress. Also Keenan: deliberate practice is fastest progress.
keenan IS amazing
I sparred on my first session. Everyone does. 20mins rolling every session. It’s the only way to really learn
my school does 2 min rounds with 10 seconds in-between, unless its open mat than its five minutes. Do you mean you're rolling for 20 minutes without breaks or the total time is 20 minutes? I am confused
Just roll, that is crazy because I was thinking that. I train in Brasil and we roll..... roll a lot...
I am a white belt, but sometimes I can hang with the purples and browns. It is hardcore and yes I smash and get smashed. lol
Thank you for that information it was very encouraging. God bless!
Joaquin Orosco delusional. Sometimes we pretend to be a competitive match so that it isn’t boring for you
Can you explain how you didn't have to work & to just train all day instead??
I personally don’t want to shortcut my jiu jitsu it’s fun getting beaten the shit out of and doing it again and again I find it awesome to learn something as beautiful as jiu jitsu this is an art and a show of human expression not mike Chang six pack shortcuts ( still with all due respect to Keenan) I just honestly think it’s better and have fun with it, because I swear I have trained Bjj for about 8-9 months rn and I train 4 times a week about 8-9 hours a week and I have never had a day where I was like fuck I have to go to jiu jitsu btw I’m 17 grind it out enjoy the jiu jitsu journey
what happened to his show he was doing. it was only 1episode i enjoyed it. bring it back
I'm a pure virgin white belt in bjj ! I just started and I learn everyday, stay positive and keep looking forward.
2kamakashi2 how is your jujitsu journey going?
I respectfully disagree with the first two minutes. The fundamentals ARE largely about technique (or should be) because the primary goal for a white belt should be to learn to defend his or herself against a stronger, more violent, but unskilled opponent who primarily wants to punch you....think Royce vs Severn (I know...Dan was a skilled grappler, but the analogy stands). Royce’s defense had everything to do with body positioning, endurance (which comes from training and being used to getting smashed and having to defend from the bottom), and timing in terms of when to go in the attack. This had almost nothing to do with his specific athletic ability and more to do with him having the discipline and toughness to stick to what he was taught for so long. That was the lesson the Gracies gave the fighting world by choosing probably the least athletic one of the bunch (at least in terms of appearance if nothing else).
Of course, everything I said basically goes out of the window if your focus from the start (white belt) is to beat your training partners with skilled versus skilled sparring. That is certainly part of the journey, but I don’t see that as an end unto itself.
hard work is the only secret , its a secret because nobody wants to hear shit about hard work...
Keenan dropping jewels
great insight and articulation of jui jitsu philosophy
My professor always tells us this kind of stuff. You gotta KNOW YOUR BODY. Jiu Jitsu is a game of extremely tiny variations of angles.
good question, Coach Juan!
Thanks for reaching me how to make sure no one reaches my pants or butt.
Heard his name around the dojo, had no idea how cool he is. I love his teaching style. Thank you Keenan for being a class act.
grande keenan!
9:50 imagine explaining this to your mum who just walks in and have never heard of grappling before
I just started and I’m trying to train everyday but MY body gets thrashed by the end of the week.
Zareh Kantzabedian I train 5days a week with rest days on Friday and Sunday every session is 2 hours I think rest days are important to recover or you won’t be able to proper drill or spar
damn that stopped short
Such Gold
Im loving my jiu jitsu class! Have been going for 2 weeks now but i just get frustrated cause I wanna learn everything so quickly. Any advice?
Same!!!!
Keep showing up.
I love the title.
Unsubmittable. The guy is a genius.
thanks coach! from Gracie Barra Paris!
Hello brother Kenan saludos desde argentina
I really wish there were more women involved in jiu jitsu. The men are always so easy on me and I dont get to learn as much with them. *sigh* Where are all the strong women at!!??
I go the same with women as I do with men, sadly I'm a bigger guy so I'll be able to tap a few women who are more skilled or higher belt, and afterward they go even harder on me. Have you tried asking men if they mind a harder roll? I was asked once by a young woman's mentor to go hard and I happily obliged and I tapped out without her submitting me cause I had to run to go vomit lol, I wasn't used to going 100% i"m usually around 80% for men and women.
6:10 That's how I feel right now. I've been going for 1 month now and it's brutal.
Love me some Keenan!!
Really insightful!Thanks alot!
I needed this
It's all about the principles.
"No shortcut for hard work." Booya -
More videos please!!!
2:30 *Read the title, then jump to here*
well said Keenan
Pure gold. Wish the vid was longer!!!

I thought this was new vid till I saw 3 yrs comment.
thanx for the talk bruv
I got a headache, give me the summary, thanks :D

excellent comments
Invisible JJ is the small details involved mastering every technique so you can teach and learn this. This is my 2 cents. Also not true about a guy who rolls will learn as fast as a guy who only studies. This was my major hurdle. Study and drill is too priority rolling is secondary in my opinion because you can roll for years with bad technique and some people learn differently than other so for me I have to drill techs way more than average Joe it feels but that's ok because I know that now. Don't listen. To any one guru, train consistently and ask yourself how can I get better and how do I learn BJJ best constantly
Cus I been training on and off for a couple of years I haven't even earned a stripe but I can submit most other white belts and some new blue belts aha but now I'm taking it seriously for mma
I am by no means above whitebelt in skill tho
Where do you train? Is this video on a play list?
american top team.. lol.. i'll always recognize the name because one of their white belts beat me in my first comp
This is a lot of industry knowledge, but ignorant of learning science. For example, we know people learn faster when they are consistently on the edge of their ability-- where they're not just relying on what they're comfortable, but also slightly pushing their boundaries into new things. Or Time spaced repetition patterns. Try watching the first 20 hours of learning something Josh Kaufman
Another tip, try to get some technique into your mind before going to sleep. We know that memory seems to encode when we sleep.
i usually critic for no reason but this time i´ll keep my mouth shut
Does this technique also work No Gi?
i can only go about twice a week, but its fun. kind of depressed that i cant go more often :(
I take MMA classes. Jujitsu is my passion n fascination. However after 6 months my jujitsu isn't clicking. I'm 2 stripe white belt. We do Muay Thai kickboxing jujitsu n wrestling. I struggle with remembering what to do or how to set up finishing jujitsu moves. I get winded very easily. Ugh. Sucks. I find myself going to foot or ankle lock alot n it's very effective. I give my opponent my legs in turn he accidentally gives me one or two legs where I'm able to get the ankle/foot locks. Other than that... I don't remember what to do when grappling
Sweet!
Cool
9:17 its going to my pants 🤣
This video = I subscribed.
i think flow roll are good for newer belts because its slowed down as a white belt my brain get flustered with options
Shortcut is to understand and accept there's no shortcut, so you are shortcutting the time you waste looking for them.
Positional sparring = really smart
Flow rolling = really dumb
Amen. From what I have seen and experienced myself, when students start with free range “rolling,” they get used to the physicality of JJ and get conditioned, but their technique growth doesn’t begin. Cooperative positional sparring is the key. If you are better than your partner and you are working on back attacks, let your partner have your back maybe with a choke almost in place and then fight out of it. Leave the pride at the door.
Perhaps there is a huge grey zone in between the too.
Please Mister, tell me what's jiu-jitsu is all about..
Jujitsu is a good sport but at first I thought it was so weird fighting on the ground, looks like a bunch of snakes grappling on ground like when it's trying to get it's prey. I thought it was more like standing up, twisting arms, joints etc but I realize it's Aikido that does that kind of stuff.
Sou seu fã..........BRASIL.
NOT SO SECRET NOW
Dude has some serious cauliflower ear
it's nothing weird about it and it goes for all martial arts not just jujitsu. but u know this. so please realize many will take u literally ...
what was he saying right before the video ended?
Is there a part 2? It cut off mid sentence
is this on the website or just on youtube
Does Keenan Cornelius drill at all?
all these guys drill ridiculous amounts.
Top level guys repeat the shit out of every variation
Can't stop focusing on his munted ear
I think this position should be called the "Krab Guard".
This guy is the shit, he's the shit, he's the shit, he's the shit😍😍
The best defense to the berimbolo is to punch them in the face when they try it lbvs
