This is what I love about Jiu-Jitsu. When Jordan hits the O Guruama the other guy smiles out of appreciation. I love it when my training partners nail something on me and vice versa. There's no comradery like there is a Jiu-Jitsu Academy
100%. The way jiujitsu should be. If someone's at a gym and the other person doesn't admire a sick technique being hit on them than the culture there likely sucks.
This roll is packed with instructions. Going to have to watch it a few times. Impressive how you stuck to your concepts when you hurt your knee but continued to grapple effectively. That sequence showed how well your system works! Thank you for the great post!
Thanks man! The concepts are really what I consider fundamentals and they remain more important than ever when in poor circumstance. For example people often want to know how to beat or survive against bigger opponents and the answer really is to prioritize proper fundamentals. Denying inside position by using frames and closing space, not letting your back get pinned to the mat etc. My roll with Bernardo was a great example. I've got this much larger and stronger multiple time world champ using his A game on me, well I better be on point with the fundamentals/concepts.
"not just driving your knee into someone's belly trying to make them fart" got a loud chuckle. Thanks for the content as always. I sincerely enjoy all these rolling videos. It's very helpful to hear your thought process in each scenario.
Your videos are always so informative. I really enjoy seeing position denial… escapes are great.. but preventing the position is something I have really been thinking through lately. The Guruma was dope. So cool to see the technical breakdown in real time. Hope that knee heals up right. Top notch content as always Jordan. Thanks for rolling even though you were tired.
Nice throw brother! I met that guy in person at your academy. I would have been able to roll with him in the Gi, but we were too busy. He looks like a strong dude-even more so in person. Nice guy too. Everyone at your school is. I figured he brings it on the mat, 😂. I hope that knee isn’t too jacked up. Funny how that works. We literally did like 1,000 takedowns that week and you didn’t get hurt, but then it happens in the weirdest way. It’s always been that way for me. You can’t predict it
@@ziiik4398 Gi is the traditional kimono worn in Judo, Jiu Jitsu, karate, etc. Most martial arts have a particular type of Gi that is suited to the martial art. For example, a competition Judo Gi is much much heavier and thicker than w Jiu Jitsu Gi, which makes it harder to establish and maintain grips. In contrast, a Karate Gi is thin that it will likely rip in time. It’s not meant for excessive torture like a Jiu Jitsu or Judo Gi
Your move to beat the quad pod is slick (2:10), BUT for aggressive beginners who want to try it, I would also show them that you have to help the uke get to the ground safely with a roll. You kinda broke the fall for Alex, which is good. But I could see a situation where someone takes that remaining posting arm away, and you end up spiking your poor opponent skull first on the mat.
Thanks man 🙏 I try to find a balance of going just in depth enough without going to crazy. Sometimes I have to takeaway a bunch of what I wrote in the script because it ends up being too much. I think I've found a good balance 🙏 Knee is doing much better but I still can't wrestle. Hard to use my butterflyhook as well but I'm just adapting while it heals 🙂
visited you gym a like a month ago and had a chance to roll with Alex! great guy! I know he was taking it easy on me but man he still felt super strong!
Great guy for sure! One of our first members when we opened years ago but he took a long break. Glad he's back. Great training partner for me. The more beastly the better haha
At 8:56 - I'm often in a similiar position Alex is in - my top elbow and knee are connected to close of that space and hands typically are around my neck defending seatbelt attempts. I find I'm often stuck under a large opponent and its actually a position I can hold for quite a long time until they transition north/south and start attaching my feet. What is the best to escape that?
Nice roll. Hes definitely a great blue belt. Only thing I didnt like is how easily I feel he gives up the back. However very solid roll! Great tips and advice!! Ty 🙏
Holy cow! This is the first time I can recall being excited over a video sponsor! Thank you for giving it the importance it deserves, Jordan. As always, killer roll commentary! I always learn from your videos. 👊🏽
In Judo, there are leg/foot techniques “Ashi-waza” and hip techniques “Koshi-waza.” Hari goshi falls under koshi waza, because it’s a hip throw (with the foot for insurance), whereas o guruma is an ashi waza technique. Essentially, hari goshi is incredibly close to a head and arm in wrestling.
Do you think being strong and tough is too much of a factor for belts? Would the 150lb version of this guy also be considered ready for purple despite not performing as well against you because of physicality?
I try not to let it factor in too much. For grading people I prioritize technicality first and foremost. Rolling ability is a bit of factor though and strength definitely helps with that. There's those with great technique but poor rolling ability, and those with poor technique and great rolling ability. Alex is definitely closing in on purple with his technicality 👊
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu The technicality is where I am struggling the most. Physically I can hang with some of the higher belts pretty well and not be tapped out in a 4 minute bout more than once but it's really just me playing pure defense. Anybody was grading it I would get a zero for points haha. I find often when I do get myself into a good position I don't leverage the techniques smoothly enough (yet) or oftentimes I consider the technique and then by the time I've decided to commit to it it's already too late. The fun of a white belt :). I've instead started to focus a little bit more on absorbing the information on how they're connecting and figuring out where and when they add or alleviate pressure or create space. That's helped me a ton figure out what someone wants to attempt to do or if they detach and give me some space to make a movement I'm now considering depending on our position whether or not that detachment is purposeful and they're attempting to trap me in something. Watching others roll makes it look easy, then you start rolling and it's choke defense city ha :D
I hit that same throw on one of the brown belts at the gym 💪🏾 😂he yelled in midair and everybody turns and looks while they are rolling 😅i felt embarrassed and proud at the same time lol
I thought it was harai goshi too but some judo guys told me it's o garuma. I guess the difference is harai goshi swipes out the leg more so while o garuma you do swipe the leg but the force is going more to the hips. A judo blackbelt could explain much better and I may have butchered the explanation.
Agree ref Better Help. Guy looks like purple to me, but each individual gets promoted on their own merit. Great explanation for breaking down an opponent when they tripod during back control
Thanks man! I was excited to hit that one is a rolling commentary. I was it all the time on this big mma fighter I spar with. I learned it from trial and error of when he'd constantly stand up.
Nice roll, you're a monster. Although the throw was more judo-like than wrestling-like imo. I see the real evilness of the knee on belly: "try to make people fart", lmfao, I almost spitted my chocolate drink.
Thanks man! To me it's all the same. Wrestling, bjj, judo, sambo etc. All have their own rulesets but at my gym when we roll everythings goo to go 💪. And ya haha that one really came outta left field 😅
Your rolling commentaries are some of the best. Also a fan of your analysis of lower belts and what they should work on. Edited for grammar and to add I'm a lower belt myself).
Man id love that. I wish I could roll with all the big names from every discipline. I don't have the motivation to compete right now but I will roll and want to roll with absolutely anyone high level I can.

Great video as always. Would like to see a tips videos on how should smaller guys aproach when rolling with stronger dudes.
Definitely will do that soon. I have a old one but it's not as good as I could make now 🙂

Get under their hips brah
This channel is a goldmine. Those commented roll are so helpful, they have just the right pace so you can digest the information. Thanks jordan !
Thanks man! I enjoy making them and am always glad people enjoy watching them 🙂
Thanks!
Nice one Jordan. Great content, great commentary, great production as usual! Learn something new every time!

Top notch content as always Jordan. Thanks for rolling even though you were tired.
That omoplata to armbar transition is one of my favorites. I suck at it but i still love it.
awesome video and awesome sponsor. makes me happy to see another spokesperson for mental health in our community. good on you mate.
Thanks man! I'm an open book and to advocate for mental health. People deserve to be happy and society makes that difficult in this day and age.
Bro having that sponsor is legit. What a wonderful plug! Love to see it.
Extra nice details in this roll like keep the head tight to the shoulder to prevent head control. Thank you again for the best JJ content
Thanks man! Means a lot to me 🙏👊
so good, as always a great roll narration. Also, I love the palm on palm peel of the arm at 1:07
Great roll! I love the focus on inside position and you pointing it out so much throughout the video. Thanks!

It's cool how relaxed Jordan always looks. Very rarely see the struggle face. Goals.
The Better Help sponsorship message was a highlight of this video. This is great Jordan 🤙🏼

Well-spent 5 bucks! Thank you. That knee buckle...
You're the man! Thank you 🙏👊
This one is another packed video. Will rewatch another 5+ times. Thank you!!
Thanks man!
Love the uma-plata into the arm-bar. Hope the knee is ok!
Thanks for the video Jordan!
Thanks for watching!
You collaborate with the best people!! Looking forward to the wrestling course @jordan
I really loved that back move when they tripod up. Im gonna have to borrow that move!
Such a great technique that I was happy to finally showcase in a commentary!
Love these commentary videos. They are so helpful. Thank you Sir 👊🏻
Thanks man! Glad they're enjoyed 🙂👊
When he turtles to shake off I love going one hook deep one shallow with a half Nelson type grip. Really breaks them down
That's a great time technique too!
Very educational, as always! Thanks a lot for explaining all the details!
Really appreciate the level of detail with which you commentate these rolls. 🙏🏼
How’s your knee?
Thanks man 🙏 I try to find a balance of going just in depth enough without going to crazy. Sometimes I have to takeaway a bunch of what I wrote in the script because it ends up being too much. I think I've found a good balance 🙏
Knee is doing much better but I still can't wrestle. Hard to use my butterflyhook as well but I'm just adapting while it heals 🙂
Your videos are amazing man. Keep up the good work!
Even though you were hurt towards the end, Alex was probably one of the best people to counter most of the things you were trying to do. Great roll!

I am enjoying your videos. I have been able to implement a few of your techniques and traps in to my rolls. I pray that your knee is feeling better.
Glad to see BetterHelp is supporting this. Really awesome since mental health is super undervalued.
Agreed 100% 👊
Yes, awesome. And it just so happens that jiujitsu is one of the best paths to happiness I’ve ever experienced.
Love your commentary that was a nice throw he definitely looks strong!
Great content as always Jordan, hope your knee is OK!
It's getting there! Thanks for asking :)
Yes!! The Omaplata to armbar is going in my toolbox. Heck yeah.
As usual, top quality content! Thank you!
Thanks man!
Props to your opponent in this one! Hope your knee is feeling better. That arm bar unravel is a gem. And nice hip toss to boot😁👊
The omaplata to armbar was even more impressive to me 🤯
Haha thanks guys! This one had a lot of great teaching moments. That's always what I look for when choosing which rolls to commentate 👊
Great armbar tip ty
Thanks man 👊
Nice roll. Hes definitely a great blue belt. Only thing I didnt like is how easily I feel he gives up the back. However very solid roll! Great tips and advice!! Ty 🙏
I feel like you play jiujitsu a lot like the General. 😄 Great video, bud!
Holy cow! This is the first time I can recall being excited over a video sponsor! Thank you for giving it the importance it deserves, Jordan.
As always, killer roll commentary! I always learn from your videos. 👊🏽
Thanks man! I've got 2 more sponsor deals with them coming up. Great company and I'm always more than happy to advocate for mental health 🙂
excellent rolling on the mat sir well done. can you make a video on how to escape monoplata from mount?
I love that you are wearing a "Kill Crew" t-shirt during your therapy commercial.😂
We call the body triangle squeeze “toothpaste” in our gym, legit as and great when the clocks running out in a round
It's great! And not a dick move like some think it is. All submissions need to be applied slow and controlled 🙌
This was so awesome to watch. Alex would destroy me. But Jordan is so calm and seems just born to do this.
Bro the stand up commentary is awesome
Great call out Jordan for mental health support and BetterHelp. We’ll done.
Everytime I roll and defend on the bottom, I hear Jordan's voice in my head "T-rex arms, t-rex arms!!!" It works, not be taken litely
Haha so important!!
Learned from this. Thank you for the content
Why is that an O-Garuma and not a Harai Ogoshi? (Forgive my spelling if I butchered the names)
In Judo, there are leg/foot techniques “Ashi-waza” and hip techniques “Koshi-waza.”
Hari goshi falls under koshi waza, because it’s a hip throw (with the foot for insurance), whereas o guruma is an ashi waza technique. Essentially, hari goshi is incredibly close to a head and arm in wrestling.
Great stuff Jordan. Appreciate it and thx for talking about mental health. How’s the knee from that roll?
Congratulations Jordan, your level in bjj is stellar and you are a very intelligent and strategical jiu jitseiro, respect
Alex is solid and tough it seems great commentary! We should all seek out the alex's in our gym
Thanks man! I love rolling with beasts like him 💪
great vid and instructions as always. hope your knees ok and you prioritize your health over content for us!
Thanks man! Just small hiccup and will heal fast. I appreciate it 🙏
good to hear!
love ya dude keep scrambling!!
🙏
I love ur channel, u keep motived to train even when i wana give it away.
Aw I love to hear it. Definitely keep going 💪
He does roll like a good purple belt. But maybe part of it is because you are dinged up. Great video as always!
Super thanks!
Mad channel . Came across it today. Good commentary nice slo mo
Hope no knee injury Professor. Great video.
Thanks man! Back to rolling already. Just no wrestling for me for a couple weeks probably 😭
Hello! Will the wrestling for jiu jitsu be available on RUclips?
A blue belt with purple belt skill set level.
Won't be much longer :)
Knee on belly for control when you don't have inside position. Duly noted, thanks, Jordan.
That's one tip I've literally never heard anyone mention. It's not just a random positon! It's a great tool for a specific purpose 🙂

That sweep ....🔥🔥
I know I wouldn’t survive but would love a roll (with gi plz)
there's something about the name alex and correlation with strength in these dudes

That first take down 🔥🔥🔥
I impressed myself with that one haha

O garuma I believe
I hit that same throw on one of the brown belts at the gym 💪🏾 😂he yelled in midair and everybody turns and looks while they are rolling 😅i felt embarrassed and proud at the same time lol
i love that you knew it was O goruma instead of harai goshi
Good stuff!
Thanks!
This dude's a blue belt?!?!
I'm in awe by his skillz!
Purple soon for sure! He's been improving real quick lately 👊
He was so pissed about the last armbar 😂 I would have been too.
Awesome!! 👊
That osoto garuma is soo dangerous😮, seen people bend their arms after posting
Yepp definitely can't be dangerous if they post. Alex did the right thing holding on but coulda let go right before hitting the ground haha.
why is the first throw o guruma and not harai goshi?
