This Is The Essential 1st Stage Of Learning BJJ or Any Martial Art
HTML-код

- Today's video comes from a viewer in Europe who is a BJJ Blue Belt and as involved with a program where he will be helping teach police officers Brazilian Jiu-jitsu. He said that they've done 1 class already and that many of the officers were receptive but some of them weren't. His question to me is about tips on coaching these people.
In this video I share some ideas on teaching people Brazilian Jiujitsu that don't want to learn it. I also share the idea of the 1st stage of learning Brazilian Jiu-jitsu or any martial art.
If you're in a situation similar to Grabrielle then I hope the video is useful to you.
Thanks for watching.

If you’d ever like to train with the team and I. Check out my gym Derby City MMA in Louisville,KY.
I’ve been a cop for 20 years and training BJJ for 12 years. BJJ is by far the best combative art for LEO’s period.
What is LEO?

Right because all the people we come across in the street are wearing kimonos.
@@deivytrajan law enforcement officer
@@derekaugust5027 many police dedicated programs have no gi or even police equipment instead. even if you learn normal gi the general control and understanding is undeniable. also you can still choke someone out with a sweater
Having trained LEOs on things that are mandatory, it makes a HUGE difference when the people there WANT to learn.
Amen!!
Really awesome from you to take the time to answer my question Chewy, just goes to show how much you care about your craft and the well being of those who live around it.
How did you submit your question? Just through RUclips or somewhere else?
Jonah Taylor yeah or shoot me a Ig message or email.
FrBjjAddict gabvlbjj happy time do so brother. Good luck with the teaching!
Chewjitsu my question is, due to the shutdowns I am about to be unemployed and once gyms open up I will have the opportunity to attend a total of 11 classes per week and treat jiu jitsu as a full time but I don’t want to overtrain. Can I get your advice on what a full time training schedule should look like?
@@jonahtaylor2301 It should involve a job search
A BJJ black belt once told me: "There are two kinds of noobs. The kind that need someone to prove to them that jiujitsu 'works' and the kind that need someone to show them they can do this without getting murdered.
The first kind you just wreck shop on. The second kind you let play and then do some sweeps to them and give them some back and forth.
The skill is in being able to determine what kind of person a noob is in the first few seconds of that very first roll."
Brilliant
isn't there a third? The kind that just listen and learn? Perfect example though good post
I think I am the first one lol. I mean I can see the videos but until I get thrown around a bit it probably won't click lmao.
I wish more coaches thought like that 🦾💞🤙🏼
As a police officer of 6 years, and only training BJJ for 1 year. I can honestly say I wish I wouldn't have been so hard headed and began training BJJ much earlier in my career!! Thank you Chewy for always putting out great content, I've learned so much from your videos!
Chewy I'm a police officer, and I teach a few different types of law enforcement classes including defensive tactics. Police officers for the most part already think they can fight, and that makes them hard to teach... But he might be teaching officers that are being forced to come because their boss said they had to go. In that case they have to be there and can't leave. With police officers, teach who wants to learn and put the others on the back burner or talk to their bosses if it becomes a problem.
Jimmie Hayes appreciate your input Jimmie!
Hey! Gabriel here, situation is that the guys are being advised by the city council to train here and paid for training, sort of like a seminar type of deal I guess? So for the most part they are willingly going, even though I'm not sure whether or not they have to be there.
Some of them are indeed convinced that they know it all and that this mma bjj stuff is too weird for them, it's southern France amigo, lots of big 1,95 m 100 kilos rugby dudes, but I'll try to put Chewy's teachings to good use during the next session ;)
@@f0cus2021SOT ah man i know them, Big Rugbymen think they can fight because of rugby. They very well know how to fight in formation but their tackling skills are very limited for 1vs1 combat.
Literally the smallest dude at the dojo dislocated my shoulder , I knew I had to learn. I was a white belt then I'm a black belt now
How long did it take you to get a black belt?
Great video. I work as a police officer. I’ve done 18 years of traditional martial arts. Wasn’t really useful in real life. I decided to do BJJ and in one month it proved itself effective.
Also being a defense tactics instructor for my PD I was sent to the D-Tac (defense tactics) school. It’s mostly ground fighting which I love!!!!
Love me a Chewy rant in the morning 😍
The best “instructors handbook” I’ve ever read said on the first page, “you can’t teach them anything”. That was a hard pill to swallow, as a young instructor. The second part of the quote was “they can only teach them selfs”. So the takeaway was that the most important skill of the instructor was to inspire and create motivation in the student. And how to do that? Well that’s the rest of the book
I hope it didn’t really say them selfs.
I wish all martial arts students would watch and understand this video. Great Work! Keep it up!!!
Amazing how much communication skill one can learn from this channel.
For a coach in this situation and pretty much everyone in general, I can't recommend the book, "Verbal Judo" enough.
Fantastic video - made me think of the old Zen saying, “Empty Your Cup” - love the shirt by the way...
It is so nice to have you make these videos, I just love listening to the philosophical side of jiu-jitsu as well. Lol
Conner Ferril glad you enjoy the videos.
@@Chewjitsu of course. Kind of a new subscriber, but I'm here to stay
Thx chewy , spot on👏👏👏..I’ve been teaching stand up arts for over 30 years & 13 years in bjj..some of the most problematic learners are blackbelts from different standup arts..
They can’t let go of their ego & allow themselves to learn
I love how you get rid of bad apples. Way to fully understand the analogy.
I’m in my first week of training at Gracie Barra and your videos have really helped me, even prior to joining a gym. Thank you
Chew , absolutely love your vids man . I'm gonna be 40 in july and I wanna join a local jiu jitsu gym. I'm ready to embrace everything that comes with it .. and keep up the good work man 😎💪
Yves Briand thanks brother. Good luck with your training.
Thanks for replying chew , Canada, Ontario here ..
I used to be a defensive tactics instructor for LEOs. Some people want to be there others don't. You can't convince them its good or not good. Make the class fun and entertaining as well as informative and functional. That way they'll want to come back regardless of whether or not they agree with you.
“In the beginners mind there are many possibilities, in the experts there are few”. - Shunryu Suzuki.
I like how you said you had to submit to your coaches teaching.. so true
Only been training a year, but enjoyed this topic as it relates to me as a teacher as well (Tech Ed teacher)
What I love about learning from my instructors is how I can relate to their teaching. Either they are similar to my body (build, reach, flexibility, etc.) or take time to explain how to adjust for body types and the WHY of techniques working. I see them do a technique and that it works, but knowing why elevates the idea
Chewy out here spitting parables
Keep planting those seeds Chewy.Thank you for the vid kind Sir
he does so much for jujitsu thanks chewy :)
This is the long version of a Zen story. Very nice!!
Humility is always a good value to have
Great post Chewy! Please share a story where you had to deal with a student who reminded you of yourself when you started. Thank you!
Robert Upton I’ve got a few of em. I’ll Eva wit for a video brother.
Hey chew, I was wondering if you could make a video on training while going through a tough breakup.. if you could that would be great. Thanks for giving me something I can escape to
Sure. Happy to do so.
In light of what is going on right now, as a black man I do believe it is good to teach police officers BJJ. I think part of the reason why we see these fatalities ( when it comes to policing) is because police officers don't know how to physically control people without using deadly force. The George Floyd case is direct evidence of this. The office didn't know how to restrain him without using fatal tactics. A BJJ white belt with a couple months of training would have known how to control him by not using a sickening and deadly maneuver. Same thing in the eric garner case. The man had him in a dangerous choke hold and didn't understand he was killing the man. This stupidity drives me insane. My only concern is that bad cops that learn BJJ will put it to bad use. I'm curious if you were ever concerned that you were teaching dangerous techniques to bad people ( not necessarily just cops). But I also think the BJJ culture will help cops in many ways especially in improving character. BJJ attracts many different people, so cops rolling with people of diverse backgrounds I think will mitigate their inherent biases about people.
I totally agree in the general case that cops should train in grappling, however, I don't think George Floyd was murdered because the cop didn't know how to restrain him properly. The knee on neck pin used by the cop is not one of the sanctioned pins used by his police department, so he would have been taught other ways. Plus, George Floyd had already been handcuffed and there were three other cops there. I think only reason for him to have used that pin would be to have inflicted pain/suffering on George Floyd.
William Wilkins was going to say the exact same thing. I’ve talked to police and corrections officers about this in the UK and I’m a long time BJJ practitioner. I think that teaching BJJ in addition to their regular close quarter control and arrest training would be a great idea, as disproportionate force is usually used out of fear or lack of knowledge. BJJ Training would give them increased confidence and more knowledge of what is safe and what is not. The best thing about black belts is that they can roll with anyone (young or old) at any level and keep them safe, even spazzy white belt ego filled guys. The police could do with more of this composure. But it takes a huge amount of time and dedication which not every officer will have. I will say though that the officer in question would have known that he was restrained and that no weight of any kind should be placed on him in this position, and he should in fact be sat up as soon as possible. My vote from a white guy in the UK- accidental murder. Tried to inflict pain because he was pissed off that the guy resisted arrest. Jail time 100%, and never allowed to police or work in security again.
Good question. I'll save it for a video.
@@Chewjitsu Thank you professor Chewy! I can't wait to come stop by your gym when this pandemic blows over, but I am really looking forward to it. Oss!
The chokehold used on Eric Garner was already banned. NYPD cops are NEVER allowed to use chokeholds, so teaching them more will be pointless.
The cop in the George Floyd case deliberately held on the neck restraint; he wasn't incompetent, he was malicious.

Love your triangle shirt! It's awesome!
Every time i watch one of your videos i learn somerhing new
Thank you chewie. Oss🙏
Where applicable, I tell people who may know some of what I’m teaching that I’m also teaching them to teach. Because they already “know” this stuff, I’m giving them additional teaching tools. And as they well know, not everybody learns the same way. This will give them additional arrows in their teaching quiver. Excusing the recalcitrant is not something I’ve tried, but I can see the value in it as you presented it.
"Man, if I got up on you quick enough youd never draw your gun"
Chewy, you're a straight gangster
Always great knowledge and experiences shared,thank you chewie!
Whoa, you have so much to teach! Thank you I needed this
I love the new intro… and the shirt!!
korax3212 I’m glad you enjoy the new intro. The shirt is from my podcast sponsor epicrollbjj.com . If you dig anything matt makes. Use promo code Chewjitsu and save a few bucks.
Besides from actually enjoying it I think there are 2 main reasons people behave like this. People have egos. They can't accept getting beat up by anyone let alone a guy half their size which is going to happen all the time in jiu jitsu. Also, jiu jitsu takes a very long time to get a hang of. People want results tomorrow but getting to a black belt skill level takes many, many years. Even to be competent in jiu jitsu it takes about a year or 2 of consistent training. But even in a year or 2 you're still considered a beginner in a sense.
I think this is awesome Chewy, I really love your outlooks on your videos. I've always been learning from your videos, keep up the great informative work🤙
Super useful advice as always! :)
Imagine a world where we replaced stubborn mindsets with dynamic and engaging ones.
From personal experience on both sides of this situation and sometimes giving this type of person ownership can help. One approach would be to have that guy walk through situations that he has seen or been in where he had to confront a potentially dangerous person. From there find out from him what constraints he has as far as tools to use to resolve the situation. Then work from that to help.
If someone puts thought into how this will help them and is still not receptive then they truly do not want to learn.
Maybe he will spar with a buddy who is into it later and realize it is worth the effort but ultimately he will have to make that leap.
Always excellent info from the guy.
Yeah i agree.
But with a wrestling or judo background you'll be a beast after training six months 😉
Coach this is a great perspective, thank you 🤙
Emilio Carballo you’re welcome.
1 or 2 months til my gym opens, can't wait to get back to training 💪
June 1st for me!
Florida already opened up
1. Throw seeds at all students
2. See if all students have seeds on their faces
3. Immediately discard the student without seed
4. Profit + Everyone happy
Very well put. Love your content.
The thumbnail 🤣🤣 Chewy be like "i didn't like the distance on the phone toss" 🤣 Great video and awesome advice!
Love the shirt !💯
Could you explain why some places advertise being members of certain bjj families? Machado/Gracie-Barre? Wanting to start jiu jitsu once I recover from my hernia repair surgery. Great content chewy!
It doesn’t matter. Find your home, that’s what truly counts .
Training with big names like GB has its pros like being able to drop in anywhere in the world. Which is why alot of people give it shit since it’s more like a LA Fitness.
This Iowa state wrestler walked into a gym here in San Antonio Texas that I trained at, got submitted a few times and never came back. Genuinely felt bad for him
good response video chewy
great video!
Omg! I love this! Thanks sir!
Mama Bear you’re welcome.
Can you please do a video on the COVID situation? My gym has opened up, but I don't know if I should go train...
Covid is canceled, it's riot season now
Go train man. Only about 3 percent of the population got infected with it(counting those who had it or who never got tested. So the odds of you getting corona virus now especially when numbers have been decreasing is very low. Even if you do get it the odds of you dying are next to none. The only people really dying are the sick elderly people or those who have bad pre existing conditions. The odds of you getting covid and dying are similar to that of being struck by lightening when you actually work the numbers out. The media blew this whole thing up.
Oss. Favorite channel. Hello from Dallas
Hey brother! Thanks for the message. Hello back to you from Kentucky.
I say to police officers that don't want to learn jujitsu, send them to Ohau, where dang near everyone is trained in some form of martial from the time they could walk until currently. They'll learn or get their asses handed to them. My friend Trey Corrales was the senior Army Modern Combatives trainer for Wheeler Army Airfield and Schofield Barracks Hawaii. He would have Renzo Gracie come and roll with his class, to show them and let them feel what a blackbelt is capable of. The guys that didn't want to be there would change their attitudes after that.
Hey @chewjitsu. Been watching your videos for about a year or so now, and I've always wanted to start BJJ. My biggest fears from it is that the cost of the membership. I can -barely- afford to go to the gyms in my area. I'd be able to wing it, but if any surprise expense comes up I'd be pretty screwed. I believe it would be worth doing, just the self confidence that BJJ would bring (you said in a video that it would help confidence) would help me in other aspects of life, but I'm still hesitant to start. Any advise? --Ron
Saving this for a video.
@@Chewjitsu I appreciate that -- You don't need to "Bob" me. Thanks for your insight --Ron
abundance mindset wins again
People want to feel tough without doing what it takes to get tough---humbling themselves and learning. They'd rather walk around with the delusion that they could protect themselves. I'm five years in, and this has been the most humbling journey of my life.
That's what I think 1 of the main reasons is. Nobody wants to get their ass kicked and you have to accept the fact that you will in jiu jitsu. Unless you're a world champion, someone will always be better than you.
Pure wisdom!👍👌
The Trans-theoretical model of behavior, which is also called the "stages of change" model, suggests that people who are not ready to change will not change. It suggests that the most useful way to deal with someone is to recognize the that they are in, and meet them there. Basically, If they don't want to be there, let them leave. That's "meeting them where they are."
I feel so sad when I hear people are reluctant to learn. I would kill for the opportunity. Unfortunately we don't have ju-jitsu in my country.
Knowing what I know, I can't imagine being a policeman and not training BJJ. Such a no-brainer
Reminded me of Elliott Hulse ❤️❤️keep going brother
That was funny, “Oh, I’d just shoot him”... Chewy “if I got up on you, you’d never draw your gun”...🤣
Bingo Chewy
Hey bro,
Where'd you get that shirt?
I love this video
You can lead a dehydrated horse to a fresh water fall but you can't make him take a sip.
Came for the BJJ video. Stayed for the life advice.
I've never heard you talk about how many if not most coaches teach poorly.
“I’d just shoot ‘em” is the most annoying shit. I hear it everyday. The guys I work with make fun of me because I “do that karate stuff” and they always find a way to bring up how cowboy they think they are. I usually ask them where their gun is. “in my truck” to which i normally respond with “do you think you could make it to your truck?”. I work with some lazy dudes who try to justify their laziness with how a gun being their (only) self defense.
sometimes our ego is what holds us back from growth.
I wish the police just wouldn't recruit people that are unwilling to learn how to safely submit people. George Floyd would still be among us then :(
No! The only way to pass a person out is if you squeeze BOTH arteries. That guy had pre-existing health conditions, according to the news reports I've seen of the preliminary autopsy. That cop may not have been the best cop, but Mr. Floyd had some substances in his system at the time, I heard....
@@SvenStadt Yeah, which may have been treatable if they dealt with him properly instead of kneeling on a cuffed suspect. They already had him restrained. They serve the public, and that includes Floyd. If he was under the influence of substances or making wrong decisions, the solution is not to prolong his situation but to help. If the police do not exist to help the public then what are they for?
So true!!!! The lack of training is what’s killing people. I’m pretty sure that cop was just a sadist tho
@@SwordTune No! The only variable was how long it took to get the ambulance there. What do wanna have happen?? You want them to just pixie-dust the damn thing there with a snap of the finger????
Safely submit people . . . That's an oxymoron if I've ever heard one.
Sure, submissions practiced in the gym are reasonably safe, but that's only because there's a culture of "I'm going to submit if this goes too far." If you have to restrain an opponent, and they don't tap to an arm bar, the only way to finish the fight at that point is to break their arm. With an RNC, the only way to finish is to choke them unconscious.
BJJ is force. Yeah, the proper technique might seem effortless at times, but this is violence. There's nothing safe about it.
I think for cops at least they are built up by the fact that most people are good. Even bad guys most times don't want to hurt people. So that means a vast majority of the people don't fight or half fight. Even less for strong looking cops. So they are lucky they haven't had someone scary and dedicated fighting or trying to hurt them so they are lulled into a false sense of security that they don't need to train and they are already as tough as it comes. I understand how the mindset happens. Somemcops can't be taught and hopefully they stay lucky
Cop- “I would just shot him”… classic. I bet his department loves him.
grasshopper, when the student is ready, the teacher appears (or was it the other way around?)
LOL i got humbled first week in the gym... No matter how many street fights you win even couple amature fights.. walked in to BJJ got my boots smoked lol
To my experience, most muscular macho guys would rather be the big fish in a small pond than face being a minnow in the ocean...
AOL was around in 2003? Seriously? Damn.... i thought it died in the 90s
Where do you ask questions??
Iv been training for like 2 years on and off and I was wondering how I could be a better training partner?? I seem to be annoying some people and a blue belt just fucked up my neck in a guillotine after seemingly (guys a blue belt and outweighs my skinny white belt ass) having trouble with my guard retention and upping the intensity to the point where it freaked me out abit and I lightened up to try and make it safer.. then he jumped passed my legs when I went to sit up guard and caught me in the tightest guillotine I have ever felt and it felt like my discs in my neck slipped or some mad shit ahahaha ... is this just jiu jitsu because iv never had anything like this happen before in the 2 years iv been training and I'm wondering if it was something I'm doing because iv had a couple of other white belts tell me I go to hard ..I don't think I do tho, i play a guard/guard pass and pin based game and only use triangles and armbars right now so I can't go hard if that makes sense?? I don't think iv ever hurt anyone or rolled in a way which makes it unsafe for my partners and I definitely havnt been doing no car crash strength guillotines on people ahahahaha... am i being a wimp and should I roll lighter and just let people tap me or should I go hard and not ever lighten up if I feel it's not safe because I think that's how that one guy fucked up my neck 😅... feel confused or like im missing key components of bjj mindset or something.. please give me some advise if you would be so kind @chewjitsu
Been like 3 months since my injury and it still ain't right 😂.. probebly need to hit up the chiro or something?
the real question is what does chewy look like without a beard
I'm not a police officer so it would be nice to get a real perspective but I would have thought BJJ was tailor made for the police force. Can't think of a better art for safely restraining and controlling a member of public who you are trying to protect (even if only from themselves).
Have the coach did it to them
Were you a good wrestler when you started BJJ or mediocre/bad one? I saw video's of wrestlers fighting with BJJ guys and a lot of the time they seem to be equal and don't get their arses beaten by the other guy or something.
I thought you were going to say choose the biggest toughest guy there and tap him out 5 times in a row lol
People with attitudes like that shouldn't be cops. It wouldn't surprise me to see a correlation between that attitude and excessive force/citizen complaints. There are certain people who should never have been hired.
I call it "otherism." If someone else has a skill I don't have, it's so much easier to make an excuse why their skill is stupid and useless, than to learn that skill for myself. So not only do I not have to learn it (with this excuse), but I'm already better than you for not knowing it (in my mind, anyway).
