The 4 Elements of Jiu-Jitsu
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 10 июн 2018
- Ryron takes us to school and breaks down the four elements of jiu-jitsu unlike ever before!
1. Defend
a. Big - Avoid/defend the positions and moves where the attack can begin.
b. Small - Keep your opponent from completing what they have started.
c. Deep - Defensive options for when you are in a deep submission.
2. Escape
a. Accept - Escape when the opportunity is perfect.
b. Create - Use a combination of techniques to escape.
c. Force - Use a combination of technique, surprise, speed and explosiveness to create space.
3. Control
a. Closed - A control that is more fixed - focusing on grips and tightness.
b. Open - Connected but not attached, focused on balance, pressure and using gravity.
c. Dynamic - Using the threat of submissions and strikes to control.
4. Submit
a. Accept - When you accept the mistake that your opponent makes.
b. Create - Using technique to create an over-reaction from your opponent.
c. Force - Making your opponent submit by any means necessary.
For a more enjoyable and sustainable jiu-jitsu journey, focus on the “As” and “Bs” under each element for the first 3-4 years, and then begin to explore the “Cs.”
Invest more time learning to defend big and small positions and escaping will come more naturally.
Spend more time controlling and submissions will appear more often.
Do more of what you don’t want to get more of what you do want.

Thumbs up if this video made you reconsider everything about your jiu-jitsu.
GracieBreakdown this was good. One step at a time
Thank you for sharing this once more!
You have changed my life for the better.
i love mma and i do jiu jitsu ;]
Thank you for sharing.
To be honest my friend... Street Jiu Jitsu is what i care about the most.
49 yo here, 20 year nogi grappling seasoned. By far, theeeeeee best grappling and even martial art combat sport speech I've ever heard in my 40 years of martial art. BEST SPEECH EVER !!!
Great information, as a new blue belt ( at 61 years of age ) I am just learning the patience needed to improve. Thanks
You are surviving, then you are winning..congrats!
Just started taking jiu-jitsu ~3 months ago....this definitely helps; "When you land in a position of defense...give defense the time that it deserves - spend time there" Quote of the day
Waited for it. Copied it down. Put it in the notes I made from this lesson. Respect.
Wow this is great. I'm dying for more of these conceptual lessons. Thanks Ryron.
Amazing advice for everyone at every level.
I SUBSCRIBED YOUR CHANNEL.
Now THIS is a Gracie breakdown... literally.
12:35 to 13:23
This is beautiful because it's not only for jiujitsu practice (something what I have nothing to do) but for life itself. This is prudence applied.
I wish I had discovered Gracie Jiu-jitsu earlier in my life.
The same here but it's never too late 💪🏽
Thanks Ryron. I find that focusing on survival has built up my confidence a lot faster too. Knowing you can survive in any position allows you to experiment more and be less worried about 'winning'.
Thaaaank youuuuuu. I started jiu jitsu just last week and I've been asking myself this question haha. This is helpful for a beginner that has no idea what's going on and just wonders "Why?????"
It's not like us white belts could submit anyone anyway lol
As total newbs, our job isn't even survival YET, it's more like just learning to see and especially feel, what's happening to us.
Like, oh, he shifted his weight right before I got arm barred... or Ah, she kept pulling my arm that direction and ended up on my back!

Oh my Lord you guys are subscribed to chewjitsu tooo!?!?!?!?!?!
Jiu jitsu has changed my life
Gracie Jiu-jitsu is so good, I've started training with my 12 year old son, using only Gracie University, I love the mind-set and all the small things you guys impart, and the love the keep-it-playful style, its helpful for anyone for so many reasons...love what you guys do and thank you.
Since the beginning I focus on defense even if my coach is focus on attacks. So this video confirm my intuition.
I am a total beginner, really just one lesson in and yet the rationale behind what is being said here is sooooo right. Ryron and Raner carrying the legacy and enhancing it even further
Hi, Ryron! I am your big fan in surviving aspect. ❤ You are absolutely right. It works, everything you constantly say and keep saying about surviving system it definitely works. It has made my jiu jitsu more comfortable, interesting. You let me look at bjj from a different angle, I am so grateful to you 🙏 The majority of guys, to my mind, don't see the deepness of real jiu jitsu, the only thing they are chasing is submission by means of constant dominating from top, fearing to fall and end up on bottom position where I like to be as it gives you confidence and opens you so many opportunities to escape, then control and finally submit. And be honest , the score itself and losing points do not matter for me. First is jiu jitsu and then competition. From this point of view Gracie jiu jitsu is unique. Once again, thank you Ryron. And best regards from Russia. Raul G.N 43 years old 🤝
thank you Ryron🙏🏼would love more videos like this about mindset, very helpful♥️
I just returned to the trainings today after a 3 weeks vacation where I didn’t train BJJ but I meditated about it and about this video in particular. My instructor said I trained as if I had been training daily while away. I now realize how important it is to have the head in the right place. As much as building muscle memory and learning techniques. Thank you
This advice is super helpful for anyone at any level. I love the mindset that Rorion, Ryron and Rener present to world. Focusing on each aspect individually will make you better in Jiu Jitsu as a whole. I see the four categories as belt colors. Defend is white belt. Escape is blue. Control is purple and Submit is brown. Even though, you can incorporate each of the phases at any belt level. Ryron’s advice to spend time in each category is so underutilized. A lot of the advice spoken out there is focused on escapes and submissions because that is the most exciting, but without defense and control, escapes and submissions are not possible. We need to remember Jiu Jitsu is a complete system including mindset. Thank you professor Ryron for the advice and work that you and your family put into Jiu Jitsu as a whole.
Great presentation, Ryron!
What a great video, Ryron! Being present is the key, in and out of the mat.
Thank you!
One of my favorites....I like to refer back to this every so often and think about my progress. Thanks for the great content.
For someone who just started sparring I will take this advice to heart and utilize throughout my Jiu Jitsu journey. Thanks for the advice Ryron. The videos you and Rener make have been very helpful for me since I began BJJ in January. Looking forward to the seeing more in the future. Thanks!
Unforuantly I can’t train at a gracie academy but hopefully I can still lead. THis this survival mindset
I love that you guys teach concepts. Invisible juijitsu articulated in words. Nice
Amazing advice… Thanks Ryron!!!
Amazing video. Thank you Mestre Ryron!
When my brother bought the Gracie combative tapes both are life's were changed we trained through many types of kung fu such as Urban Jeet Kune Do,western style boxing,wing chin, and huc chun kun teo. However after my brother and I so the effectiveness of Gracie jiu jitsu we trained through years of training with Gracie jiu jitsu and all in all it made us better not just in fighting but in life as well 👍😏
Oh Shut the fuck up and get off the fucken bandwagon. If you're a legit JKD Guy, you won't even bother saying this nonsense.
MrSupertwo if you didn't believe in jiu jitsu why did you click on the video in the first place? Stop causing drama because of what one man said let it be. If bruce was still alive or if you were trained by Emil Martirossian I'm sure they would be disappointed. Don't bother responding I'm not going to text back to someone who only brings negativity out.
how much do those tapes cost?
William Sanson OK thanks:)
Ryon, you rock. Very good principles and explanation of them. Thank you!
Thanks Ryron! Overall great presentation . I identified with the last point about getting comfortable with defending in order to survive and then find the escape and same with control to submit. I’m going to keep this as a focus of my training.
Thank you so much for these words of wisdom and explaining everything in order. The more knowledge I have the more I crave and grow, I love it
Thank you so much for uploading this. I’ve learnt a lot from it
Thanks! What I love about jujitsu is the calm intelligent confidence. Really appreciate the Logic cycle and layers. Well spoken and easy to understand despite it's depth. It for sure changed the way I thought about the flow and outcome of a fight.
Please do more of these, I love looking into the theory and concepts and learning more.
Amazing lesson Ryron! Your mastery of jiu jitsu really shines through in this lesson.
This is a beautiful lesson! Thank you for sharing it.
Keep making videos, I've learned jujitsu through this channel, It works, I'm a believer in Gracie jujitsu!
My new favourite video. loved every part of this!
Thank you professor for the refinement of the self defense strategy of Jiu-Jitsu. I have come up with Defend, Shut Down and Attack. It reflects the “Triangle” of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. 🙏
This is awesome! Thanks Ryron!
Good advice, thank you for the great lesson. I know that I have to do on the next open mat. Good luck in what you doing!
That was a really invaluable overview, thanks
Fantastic hierarchical instructional - more please!
Thanks Ryron! I loved your explanation and how it relates to the TAO principles! Great work! I see BJJ mostly throu the survival and serf defense eyes!
Thank you for sharing this and leading by example!
Excellent! Very informative. Thank you.
Great advice n break down
This came at the right time for me I attended my 2nd lesson today, I am learning it all but very slowly and it's frustrating and embarrassing when you learn technique slower than everyone else. But it is my 2nd lesson, attending my third on Wednesday!
Extremely useful info. Thanks!!
Thank you! My coach says: Jiu-Jitsu give you the tools to be comfortable in an uncomfortable situation. Accept you are in the bottom and make it comfortable. Some days you are the hammer other days you are the nail.
great lesson. I don't take notes very often, but this one merited it.
so useful information, thanks Ryron
Thanks for breaking this down really helped me a lot guys
Professor Ryron dropping knowledge. Awesome.
Glad you uploading👍
Great lesson. Thanks!
Thank you, Ryron! Position before submission!
This was great i will study thank you for your lesson coach oss
Jiu jitsu life changing advice.
Thank you Sir!
Amazing breakdown. Thanks.
I loved this. Im a Combatives student...almost at 2nd stripe lol (so shiny new) this absolutely changed my approach to how I want to learn jiu jitsu. I want my defense to be demoralizing 😂. I can learn a lot from being patient and just learning to wait and see. OSS
Love this... I'm guilty of complicating things for myself trying to rush to the goal. Do less and achieve more. Great concept.
Great video. Thank you for sharing your insight.
Very detailed, studying being passive and being active, yes.
As a lighter, less aggressive, white belt, I feel that this reaffirms everything I think about fighting and rolling. I'm so greatful for this video!
Great presentation, thank you.
True wisdom. From today on I step on the mat to Survive. Thank you for the post.
Great stuff.
Thx for your inspiration.
Congratulations for the outstanding analysis of the game!
Mind set is everything. My son, age 5.5, just started training. I'm going to adjust our home training to follow your advice. Amazing info!
Wow!! These concepts are revolutionary
Thank you for explaining this process. I am definitely in the 90% as i am just starting my Jujitsu journey. After watching this, the main points for me were the "accepting" position point and to be more patient. I keep making (the same) mistakes because i go into a "panic" mode and get caught into an even worse position. I will try to remember and execute the DECS process while I'm training.
DEEEEEP!!! I believe I've been approaching my journey incorrectly. Thanks for the course correction, Ryron. It will also impact, significantly, the way I approach teaching my grandkids the Bullyproof program!
Thank you for sharing.
Need to watch before every practice or spar, great stuff, remember the DECS.
Meditation is something i am exploring now. Watching a video and meditation allows time to thinking it thru and believing in it. Slowly seeing me step by step doing it. Then comes drill time. Physically doing it step by step over and over. I was in class and duing the arm bar attempt on me i instinctively caught the leg going over my head to place it under my head like hener shows in part one and i couldn't believe how it just happened without thinking but i mediated and drilled it. Gracie jui jitsu is amazing.
Thank-you, Ryron
Great stuff! I'm a new guy and this made perfect sense to me. Thank you.
This breakdown is awesome
This is good information. Thank you. This also has application to your entire life.
I've just witnessed the sparkle of a Grand Master in the making. Respect.
Such WISDOM!!!! just AWESOME!
Great Lecture! From Professor Ryron: Knowing the four elements helps you isolate your training better and bring order to your understanding of Jiu-Jitsu
Thank you, Professor!
Incredible video. Thank you so much. I now see bjj trough another lens. Thank you for structurimg this beautiful art in such a clear simple and understandable way.
Realmente esse conteúdo é profundo e toca nas raízes conceituais do Jiu-Jitsu. E isto fica ainda mais alarmante se olharmos o avanço do jiu-Jitsu esportivo (O que também é bom para o esporte) em detrimento de conceitos como aprender a pensar sobre pressão, perseverança, calma e outras skills que o Jiu-Jitsu ajuda a desenvolver. Muito obrigado pelo compartilhar! Verdadeiramente me colocou para repensar minha prática do Jiu-Jitsu e mudar meu "mind set" para isso.

This content is really deep and touches on the conceptual roots of Jiu-Jitsu. And this is even more alarming if we look at the advancement of sports jiu-jitsu (which is also good for the sport) at the expense of concepts like learning to think about pressure, perseverance, calm and other skills that Jiu-Jitsu helps develop . Many thanks for sharing! It truly put me to rethink my Jiu-Jitsu practice and change my mind set for it.
Oss
Mind blown, wow what a video!
Awesome perspective thank you
I appreciate and respect your great theory.
You guys are best JiuJitsu teachers of the world. 👍👍
This is brilliant
i didn't do any classes before but it makes a lot of sence for me, i get all my bjj info on youtube, and i have to say that is the best way to go, it's not about submitting, it's about controlling the storm, the storm have to pass, by doing that is to wait until the storm calms, and just there i think you create more fear by exhausting your opponent, and then just there and then you will catch your opponent off guard when his energy are drained and yours remained stable, Great lesson Ryron
Great video. I think I personally have worked pretty hard at the "Big" defense concept but not enough at the "Small". I've been trying to work out of bad positions lately without letting my opponents sinking in submissions. It's pretty exhilarating really because even white belts or brand new people can choke you if you let them wrap your arms around their neck, but like you said, you don't get much out of it if you try to burst out and escape as soon as they get you in a bad position. Good stuff to think about.
This video is trasure..Thank you Ryron
really enjoying this explanation of bjj principles. rings true with a lot of my experience so far too. im only a year plus white belt but still.
I love the passive vs active idea. It means a lot for me at this point in my training being naturally passive and only 70 kg . I’m naturally more conditioned and happily confident to the passive sides of this chart. While still a little slow on the throttle when the opportunity arises. I’ve been wondering how the smaller guy theory defeats the bigger stronger opponent works at times lately. But I can see from this that action at the right time will help me become a more fuller rounded Jiu-Jitsu guy. 7.5
years in and half way though purple belt already and I started training at 38yrs old. Now I’m 45 and am beginning to really understand. Thanks great lesson
Great breakdown of principles to live by with BJJ. It makes good sense to work on the passive first so that you can gain a good position and realize that you can submit or not to survive an attack. BJJ for Life. Thank you for your wisdom!
Thanks Ryron...great advice...it sort of reminds me of Proverbs 16:32 about patience...
Next level breakdown bro.
Recently diving into your channel.
You are an awesome teacher.
Do you have a ctc center around north central arkansas?
I agree with everything in this video. However at the gyms around me, the objective is to score two points or advantage points
Those gyms are sports BJJ, which just sucks
