Very interesting. I'm a old vintage seasoned grappler, and I love when guys like Matt finds catchy phrases to help re-frame our guard passing mindset: there are no secret entrance to pass a guard. JJ Machado used to say, why rush, he will make a move and I will pass. Another young instructor said: why rush, you're on top, be patient. Another aspect I began to discover that most instructors wont unveil to their students is the need to disconnect and reset, re-do over the guard passing. Students are so afraid that they rather stay in the guard pass sequence and fail, rather than disconnect and reset and engage over. As a guard passer I trust my method so much that I'm not afraid to disconnect literally separate and reset.

There's no cons in JKD. Only a lack understanding on what JKD really means. It's not a system. Nothing is fixed here. Every technique is build upon something that works in practice in real live scenarios. If you gonna teach JKD, forget about the branches and the fruits, they will come later on and will differ from practitioner to practitioner, but get to the roots of the philosophy and the freedom of expression that lies in the core of JKD.

it's so much harder to move a drunk person bc they are completely relaxed. If you lift a limp, there's no lever to the rest of the body. Very smart to use this in bjj against sweeps...

Definitely much easier said than done 😅. I started 90% of my rolls in bottom of half guard for a full year. I didn’t make any meaningful progress for 10 months. I learned that the problem with getting good at half guard is that it’s very dynamic for the top person. They can put their legs, knees, hips, arms, and posture in limitless positions so you’re constantly battling different things which makes getting proficient at half guard much much more difficult than it sounds 😅
@Aaron-id8ue 26 күн бұрын
However, I suppose if you just focus on recovering guard no matter what the top person is doing, then it should streamline the learning curve. I spent the year learning contingencies for anything the top person threw at me. So, I suppose, I do agree with this video as long as you only focus on one or two goals from the bottom. A solid combination of sweep/guard recovery should do the trick!

@danielnelson3136 29 күн бұрын
I partly agree with letting go to regrip and pummel better but this doesn't mean you should allowed your grips and wrists/forearms to become weak overtime and not train those hands. Grip is EVERYTHING in the grappling arts, and weak forearms/grips limits how powerfully you can secure a hold, or even defend yourself from a submission. In some cases a very powerful grip denies your opponents clean transitions and even the grip pressure alone, gripping not just at the Gi but into the skin, muscle and other soft tissue is extremely discomfort which is very good for both competition and even in combative street situations when you have to aggressively apply a hold or chokes.

This is a great point, especially in the heat of competition. Lower belts, myself included, will hold onto useless or harmful grips just to have some kind of connection and the illusion of control.

You need to practice your listening skills. He's saying a basic half guard game will take you a long way and is good enough. That doesn't mean stop getting better at JJ as a whole. But with a good enough guard, that does the trick, you can keep progressing the rest of your game.

Honestly in pure BJJ it's easy because you're not going to get punched in the face. Pure BJJ is just pain, not damage. If you're worried about damage, just tap.

My two cents is that you are a JKD practitioner I hear you say you were chipping away at all the un essentials to use only what works for you. That is a JKD tenet. We no longer have Bruce Lee. Even your statement saying you no longer practice JKD is JKD.without being too philosophical it sounds like you are more authentic than you realize.
@magazineretriever9036 Ай бұрын
Matt Thornton had a bad experience at _one_ JKD school, that was run by instructors whose approach to JKD was something that _Matt_ found to be less than adequate. This is _his_ opinion. Thornton's anecdotal recollection of what he learned in this _one_ JKD school in no way speaks for every JKD school or every JKD instructor.
