- If you want to improve your understanding of BJJ, focus on principles, not individual moves. Here are three of the most important ones to start getting your head around early.

It's old-school, but Josh Barnett's Attacking The Guard has ideas about staying safe inside closed guard that I use with all our beginners: budovideos.com/en-gb/products...

Ryan Hall has a fantastic, principles-focused teaching style and everything I've seen from him is good. This is the set I talk about in the video: www.groundfighter.com/Ryan-Ha...
Jimmy Pedro's Grip Like A World Champion taught me almost everything I know about grips for the standing gi game. I haven't seen it, but he's got an updated version here: bjjfanatics.com/products/grip...
A lot of how I think about framing and positions comes from Ryan Hall - this video is a good intro to some ideas:

I rarely comment on anything but this is excellent. As a white belt with a comically bad memory I find myself relying on these principles all the time while I'm constantly defending.
Fantastic resource and great guidance Joel! Thanks for putting this out there.
Love this mate - great video!
Awesome Joel. Thanks for this reminder and actionable list! The elbows in (or t rex arms) was a major ah ha moment for me on the mats, took a while to learn it myself.
Thanks. I’m as good at bjj as at chess - not at all. 10 months in. This video useful.
Glad it helped!
Awesome video! I just started Jiu Jitsu recently, so naturally I've spent a good bit of time on the defense while rolling lol. This will definitely be utilized next time I roll. Granted, I'll still get my ass handed to me for a bit, but if I can keep giving my rolling partners a run for their money, and go on the offensive a little more as time goes by, I'm a happy man.
This is a great video! I’m around month seven in jujitsu. I am of course a white belt. Of course surviving and learning defense is the first mental principle! I learned these three in this order. The crazy thing is I just heard it from higher belts in different conversations, and after rolling with them nothing formal, but I ended up putting it together on my own. Shrugs. I’m getting the framing pretty much under wraps, however, the next thing I’m working on, is trying to get to four points of contact. great video, sir
Amazing advice thank you for producing this content!
Glad it's helpful! I'll probably do more, shout if there's anything you'd like to see.
BUT OF COURSE we do apply this. As a seasoned grappler, I am telling you its all true, and the worst is, if you do some of these mistakes, which you will cause, cause no one is perfect in grappling, it will cost you vs a good skilled grappler. It's a long battle to remember even the slightest technical concept. You have no room for mistakes vs high level grapplers. So the long you roll with em, the less likely you are to do those mistakes. But believe me, it is not easy even after years and years of sparring.
Love these! Thanks Joel. Yours, a new subscriber....
Solid advices, great video👍
Thank you!
Thank you
BJJ is a great discipline BUT if you can't wrestle and you don't know how to throw a punch its ABSOLUTLY USELESS IN THE REAL WORLD.
Absolute statements are usually untrue, and this one definitely is: I know of AT LEAST three people who couldn't throw a punch and can't wrestle, who used BJJ to handle violent situations without coming to any harm. If you just don't believe that, I don't know what else to tell you.
You could argue that if you know multiple combat sports you would fare better, but to say only knowing bjj is "absolutely useless" is extreme and in my opinion simply untrue. Often at the beginning of class, we talk about situations where someone is coming at you swinging and what you can do to defend, neutralize, and escape. If you're scared to try an Absolutely fun and incredible sport, just say that. 😂 just jokes on the last part! In all seriousness, I've practiced boxing and muay thai for a few years and jiujitsu sbout 7 months I think and it's the most fun sport I've ever done. Give it a shot if you haven't!
