Detached my tricep from my elbow. Likely partially torn lifting weights but did it completely in a roll. 5 weeks post surgery and a long road back. Great channel! I can’t do BJJ right now so your channel is a great supplement.
I'm a one stripe white belt and honestly this channel has made my game so much better. I still don't know much but being able to get just 1 move from each video has sped up my BJJ education tremendously. Keep it up!

I would call it a modified tani otoshi as well. I'm sure there's a very obscure Japanese term for that specific throw that I won't come across until I have to do it on a test years from now.
It's 11pm in gods country, Yorkshire, Leeds, England! 🇬🇧 And whats better to watch than this. Great insight to how you flow through different techniques! It scrambles my brain but great to watch!
This video is jam-PACKED with great info, insights, and action! This guy was really good and it was really fun to see a different part of your game (stand up/takedowns and great grip fights). Thanks Jordan! 👊
I started earlier - shortly before 27 (although that's still late by competitive standards of course), but an inspiration for me was a 60 years old brown belt at my first club. I wouldn't have guessed he was that age, but I learned it.. And he was doing pretty well, picking guys two or three times younger apart. Now I'm 41, I've been around the block, had my share of injuries and setbacks, but I definitely intend to keep rolling when I'm in my 60s and beyond
I find when I'm injured it gives me an opportunity to roll in ways I normally wouldn't and it helps my game overall. I love to play guard but right now I have a broken toe so I have to do everything in my power to get and stay on top. I really appreciate your videos! I can hear your voice in my head when rolling saying "don't give underhooks" when I mess up haha love all the extra effort you are putting into videos, quality stuff! OSSSSSSS
This is the best bjj channel on RUclips by far. You give great commentary for practical active rolls and it's really a blessing for all of us learning the art. I've learned to use my T-rex arms when I'm in bottom side control (which is a lot). Thank you 🙏
You are the first RUclipsr I ever see that makes the sponsor appealing. I've never seen anyone else actually demonstrate a real example of what they learned in Skill Share. Big ups for that!
I think the name for your throw at the 7:00 mark would be Tani Otoshi (valley drop). I’m still new to Judo though. Happy to be corrected by anyone who reads this.
Really liked the pause and positional breakdown with the overlaid text/labeling. I bet it’s a pain in editing but it’s really informative. Thanks Jordan.
Really appreciated that you paused for a sec to breakdown headquarters. It was helpful to be able to take a second to absorb it without the roll moving on too quickly. Would definitely like to see that more! Great stuff as always 🤌
Very nice addition of throw defense in this video! Injuries.... lol well I started a year ago and since then have had cauliflower ear, bursitis, partially tore my mcl, spained pinkie toe, almost broke big toe and more mat rash than I care to say lol. Un-injured at the moment oddly enough
Great video! I love it when people start standing. Tani otoshi, valley drop, is a great counter to hip throws. It’s pretty similar to what you did when you dropped him over your knee. In tani otoshi you straighten your back leg though instead of keeping it bent.
Currently injured. Sprained MCL. 4 weeks in and getting much better. Wish I could say it was from training, truth is I fell into a drained pool at work…….
The sacrifice throw at 6:55 is Tani otoshi, usually used as a counter to Seoi Nage. Very effective if the opponent isn't adequately pulling to create kuzushi.
@JordanTeachesJiujitsu Definitely selling yourself short. The wrestling background definitely helps with maintaining your center of gravity. Keep the videos coming Brother!
I started doing jiu jitzu and I love it life has been rough and one of the only things I look forward to is going to train I use to wrestle and it feels so good to do jiu jitzu and it let’s me get away from life jiu jitzu is amazing and anyone out there struggling in jiu jitzu or life just remember “Tough times don’t last tough people do”
Great roll! I am currently rolling injured. I was pulled backwards from my turtle into an RNC, my knee immediately shot with pain. Took a few weeks off and it hasn't been the same. Still training.
Love using that behind the back arm pass when I can! 🔥👊🏽💯. I actually learned that watching Dean Lister 👊🏽. I pulled my rib rolling a week before my fight. Felt every deep breath during the fight😣was a little worried but still managed to pull off a rear naked choke in the first. Awesome video thanks for sharing your valuable information. 💯👊🏽 recover strong and stay blessed my friend 🙏🏽🔥
Bro, you are certainly teaching us jiujitsu. I cannot thank you enough. I'm injured right now. See the doctor on Tuesday to find out whats wrong with my right knee and ankle. Didnt tap soon enough from an ankle lock. Great video Jordan.
I do body locks on Judokas as well, and I find if i have the lock and drop my weight down to their knees, the lock turns into a rugby tackle and it off balances their momentum and I avoid being thrown.
It's stuff like this I'm glad I had some wrestling experience from highschool before I started judo. The sprawl reaction has saved me more than once in some bjj stand ups. They weren't beautiful sprawls, but they did the job.
I appreciate it!! Thank you. You're the man! I do MUCH better dealing with trolls than I used to. I 99.9% don't care what they say now. I just gotta work on that last .1 haha
Great stuff seeing you with a judo guy. Nice to see the takedowns used. Sweet set up to get the reverse triangle at 6.27. Out of training at the moment with hip pain but at least I watch and enjoy these videos 🤙
Hi Jordan, great video! I really like the way how you pause important situations and describe the techniques. And yes, I am injured, got partial rupture of the musculus biceps femoris, actually happened during fotball. It's pity, missing bjj so much!
Pretty sure I commented on one of your earlier videos of this year that you’d reach 100k subs by end of this year. You were at around 35k back then I believe. Looks like we’re on track prof! Great content, always.
Thanks Jordan. I think what you highlighted here is how important transitions are. There is a small window between the off balancing and landing of your opponent to obtain a dominant position on the ground. Learnt a lot from this.
The move where you trap his arm behind his back to pass the closed guard was sick. If there’s not already a name for it, I‘d call it the Slot machine 😂 cause he’s left with only one arm. The injury sucks tho. I‘ve been injured actually 3 weeks after I started with BJJ. One of the more experienced guys I was rolling with switched on his competition mode and didn’t care so much about my safety.. almost broke me a couple rips with a brutal knee on belly. Took me 4-5 weeks to recover, but I‘m back on the mat 🙏🏻 Your videos are helping a lot Jordan, please keep them coming 👌🏼👌🏼👌🏼
Top tier content as always! The pace of information is perfect. Hope you do a video starting in terrible, smashed positions against a bigger guy, then recovering. Sometimes it feels like I have no options in those spots, but I know that's not the case.
Nice little tip there at the end: if you're on top side control, arm in your face for Americana, arm behind your head for arm bar. Good stuff! Thanks for making these vids
I got compartment syndrome so I got surgery on both legs...I have been watching your videos as well as a lot of BJJ content since my operation, once I can drive I will go to class and at least sit and learn til I'm strong enough to get back out there!!
Just has ACL surgery last summer. NOW I find out today I need rotator cuff surgery for a massive tear (muscle insertion torn off the bone). As with the acl tear, I’ve been training injured and didn’t realize it. I’m so bummed that I have to have surgery again….:/ 4-6 weeks in a sling, 4-6 months recovery. I HATE missing training jiu jitsu. I’m not sure I can handle it again!!! 😡 Thanks for sharing this vid and knowledge as always!
Great commentary. I learned a lot - both stand-up and ground! I enjoy it when you explain how you get a partner into an A-B attack, like in this video where you go armbar or triangle. Thank you!!
Smooth rolling back take, and some cool triangles. Also i like the advice about americana vrs far side arm bar. Lots of good content in this one, thank you!
As a beginner living in another country whose language I don't really understand just yet, your videos help clear up a lot of questions I have from class. 😅
@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu I'm living in Sweden at the moment. Actually wanted to start when living in Austin TX last year, but never got a chance to with work. My wife's hometown here apparently has one of the biggest BJJ supply companies in Europe and a decent BJJ scene. Got invited to join by a family friend, and ironically enough I'm taking a seminar from B team Robert Degle next week. Life takes you down some interesting paths, but I'm glad I finally found the time to start rolling. Thanks again for the quality vids👍
@@rs.wright life truly is a journey. I'm jealous haha. Sweden sounds awesome as does living in a foreign country in general. Enjoy the seminar. Should be excellent and very informative!
even more good stuff Jordan, thank you so much for this. My standup game (lack there of) recently got me a torn patellar tendon which has left me on the sidelines and itching to get back. Thanks for throwing this in because the basic concepts will be helpful in the future.
Ooo that would hurt. Both of us not injured from BJJ though. Shows you every activity has its risks. I say that because sometimes BJJ gets a bad rap for injuries. I hope you heal up quick 🙏
Wow. That was a great roll. You can easily see how tough that guy is. Nice control through the entire back, triangle, arm bar sequence. I need that shit in my life!!
As I've been instructed before, a Judo brown belt is like a blue belt in BJJ equivalence because a 0-dan black belt is like a purple belt. 3-dan black belt is more equivalent to a BJJ black belt.
Nice commentary. I'm injured too with a torn LCL. Got my half-guard passed but tried to hang on with 1 leg at an angle that strained my ligament and then I heard a POP! It's funny because just moments before it happened I thought to myself "this is a lot of tension on my knee. Maybe I should just let him pass".
I can't count how many times I've torn ligaments in my knees. Fortunately these were never complete tears, only like the 2nd degree (meaning partial tears and hence no need for a surgery, just some rehab). However I still ended up having my meniscus stitched at one point. Knees are arguably the most "injurable" body part in BJJ, which is a pity, because they tend to be difficult to heal. (A knee is a very complex mechanism, and some parts, like the meniscus, don't regenerate at all, or barely. And it is also hard to give up on using your knees during time off). My advice is to spare no expense nor time for proper physiotherapy. It pays off in the long run.
I tore my hammy recently so I've been doing a lot of seated guard. Much to my surprise counter wrestling doesn't hurt, but open guards like spider and de la riva do.
Great video 🔥🙌🏻
Thanks bro 🙏👊
When are we going to see a collab Video with U two?
@@PYROMARU that would be so cool! 😃
@@WilliamTackettBJJ one day we have to make it happen 🙂
like to see this no gi - combat JJ with judo throws and sweeps and a bit of wrestling would cover grappling
I’m pretty sure you’re the best BJJ instructor on RUclips. Everything is so clear without making things overly complicated
I appreciate that so much! Means a lot to me 🙏
I second that
Forget youtube, this skill is reeeeeal. Nice work Jordan.
Strongly agree
100% agree
That escape in the closed guard is a thing of beauty (amongst everything else in the video), surely going to give it a try tonight!
Tani otoshi is the sacrifice throw you used at 6:55 - Beautiful video! Thanks Jordan
7:12 That closed guard pass was elite. Can’t wait to try it.
7:12 that pass where you staple his hand under him is sickkk
I really love how you pause the roll and annotate the situation. Quality teaching
Could you do this for all of your white/blue belt breakdowns please?
Detached my tricep from my elbow. Likely partially torn lifting weights but did it completely in a roll. 5 weeks post surgery and a long road back. Great channel! I can’t do BJJ right now so your channel is a great supplement.
That guard pass at 7:05 was awesome
Thanks so much professor. I did a year or so of Judi as a kid and it's amazing how much it seems to help on takedown.
Another excellent video.
I'm a one stripe white belt and honestly this channel has made my game so much better. I still don't know much but being able to get just 1 move from each video has sped up my BJJ education tremendously. Keep it up!

That chair sit back take is a gem, and that throw at 6:53 looked like a Tani Otoshi
I would call it a modified tani otoshi as well. I'm sure there's a very obscure Japanese term for that specific throw that I won't come across until I have to do it on a test years from now.

The whole channel is.
Respect to Steve. He would probably throw and submit most of us watching.
Thank you. 🙏 I’d love to train with anyone. Hit me up on Instagram or tiktok! @judosteve10
Great stuff… I just started bjj about 11mos ago, at 49, and i TRY to implement some of your movements, either way that goes, I enjoy your content.
I’m 34, started BJJ a bit over a year ago, and I’m in the same boat. Trying to absorb as much as possible….
I started 5 years ago at 45 Get ur stamina up, these young guys will test you if they see any grey hair! 😂
Well done for starting. I started around 6 years ago at 45. Loving it still!
I started earlier - shortly before 27 (although that's still late by competitive standards of course), but an inspiration for me was a 60 years old brown belt at my first club.

That twister as the first submission of the video makes it your best video by far. One of my favorite moves and have always wanted to secure one.
Had to start it out witha bang. Such a cool sub!
“You won’t see any guard pulling” with a hint laugh. Thanks bro cause that can be awkward sometimes
@7:12 that is the hammerlock pass. I use that a lot. Keep that arm after you pass and make them work to get it back, cooking that arm.
The channel is doing great brother! I have a Judo brown belt from San Jose State who just got his bjj purple from me. Always a great roll🤙
Dude this is such a help. We all make these mistakes all the time during our rolls.
I find when I'm injured it gives me an opportunity to roll in ways I normally wouldn't and it helps my game overall. I love to play guard but right now I have a broken toe so I have to do everything in my power to get and stay on top.
I really appreciate your videos! I can hear your voice in my head when rolling saying "don't give underhooks" when I mess up haha love all the extra effort you are putting into videos, quality stuff!

Get better bro...this can be a good thing as it forces you to create and adapt another aspect of your game you would have overlooked otherwise

Another great video. Drilled standup with one of my buddies who’s judo/BJJ guy as well and he hip threw me into next week 🫠
Awesome content. I love seeing how you go up against guys with different specializations and how you handle the situations that come up. 👊
Very nice addition of throw defense in this video! Injuries.... lol well I started a year ago and since then have had cauliflower ear, bursitis, partially tore my mcl, spained pinkie toe, almost broke big toe and more mat rash than I care to say lol. Un-injured at the moment oddly enough
You’re definitely turning this into one of the best jiu jitsu channels. Videos, voice overs, editing are on point!
This was cool to see a roll against a judoka who also has good experience in BJJ as always love your content. Thanks jordan

Currently injured. Sprained MCL. 4 weeks in and getting much better.
Wish I could say it was from training,
truth is I fell into a drained pool at work…….
This is what I'm here for. What a fantastic video! Thank you, Jordan!
Nice roll. I’m a nogi guy. Good to see that the nogi takedowns work in gi

The sacrifice throw at 6:55 is Tani otoshi, usually used as a counter to Seoi Nage. Very effective if the opponent isn't adequately pulling to create kuzushi.

I am black belt judo : let me tell you you are very good !!!
Bravo et merci pour le travail !!
That's a good point. Kind of a cross between yoko-guruma, tani otoshi and sukui nage without grabbing the legs.
Love these rolling walkthrough videos!!
Wow thank you for this video. It’s packed full of information
Great video Jordan. I think I’ve got a tear in my ucl, loud pop when getting americana’d in one of my first sessions. Should have tapped earlier!

Towards the end where his arm was trapped under his body were you holding it with your other arm. Surprised that worked as easily as it did.
Ya super awesome technique. I'll have to break down more in depth soon!
Could you do a video focussed on takedowns Jordan? Maybe one on just gi and another one on no gi?
I felt for Steve. I'm also a judo brown and bjj purple. Against my bjj instructor neither belt nor both combined are enough to get me over the line!
Always learning from your videos man. Keep up the hard work and hope that injury heals up, I know they suck.
Thank you! It's going to take forever to heal since I'm still rolling. Gotta do what I gotta do though. I appreciate the support 👊
I tore my hammy recently so I've been doing a lot of seated guard. Much to my surprise counter wrestling doesn't hurt, but open guards like spider and de la riva do.
The pass at 7:15 is so sick! Can’t wait to try that.
Awesome content man. Very educational and respectful. Awesome stuff
Great analysis!
6:55 That seems to be a 'Valley Drop'
