Drop your BJJ questions in the comments. Try to make them as detailed as possible so I can give you a good answer. If you can’t phrase it in a sentence, don’t be afraid to make a video. I’ll either reply with text, or, if I find it interesting enough, I’ll make a video and post it.

in this video, I go through what I think are the best ways to sweep from single leg X. A lot of leg lockers are too hyper focused on only going for the leg lock, but if you can add the threat of coming up on top and getting the sweep, it makes your game a lot more unpredicatble My personal favourite is the reverse tripod sweep (which I cover at the end) because it feels the slickest to hit and is effortless when timed right.

I taught a class on a brief but effective body lock system used in freestyle wrestling that transfers really well to BJJ. Body lock takedowns are some of the most effective takedowns for BJJ because they: • Don’t require a lot of athleticism and are easy on the body • Work at the highest levels of competition • Let you land in a position where you can control your opponent and prevent them from standing up If you have any questions or thoughts, drop them in the comments below. https://youtu.be/tGDy_v6OOSM

An insight one of my coaches shared with me while I was training in the US, (John Danaher) is that there are three major types of escapes that work synergistically, you can chain them so that the defense to one naturally sets up the next. I taught a class outlining these escapes, which include the elbow escape, kipping escape, and bridging escape, and I also briefly discussed how to chain them together and when to use each one. this video is a little bit more advanced but drop any questions or thoughts below and I'll try to help out.

Not sure if everyone’s seen this match yet, but there are some really cool exchanges in here definitely worth a watch. A few highlights: • The bear trap dilemma leading into the sweep • De La Riva guard play • chaining passing sequences Some cool exchanges drop any comments and questions below https://youtu.be/ko4HsYzloLo?si=zXKHctZgqY2tOtpv
