Can confirm. Have done these. Especially the crossing of the feet, and lo and behold, they got me with that foot lock and I learned real quick to stop lol 😆

Hi professor. How about a video on the 5 best things to do when starting jiu jitsu.

[@iamnotjcook]

Listen, be ready to learn, don't be discouraged by "losing," focus on not getting tapped and finally just keep at it :)

[@OrganicGonzalez]

Show up minimal once a week every week for the rest of your life. Oss

[@jeffhelton2097]

I saw the thumbnail for this video and literally laughed outloud. I'm paired up with a new guy and he keeps trying to cross-collar me inside my guard. I did it too when I first started. It's all good. :)

[@OrganicGonzalez]

Great tips!

There's a few people who attack in my guard all the time, but I'm not skilled enough to capitalize on it. I tell them not to attack in the guard, but since I struggle with demonstrating the risks in real time, they usually just go back to doing it because they don't feel threatened. I know what I CAN do from there, but armlocks and sweeps never feel available for some reason. Something about my hip position must be wonky. It feels like they're never off their base, so I can't sweep them. When they try to cross collar me, I usually just stick it out and wait for them to back off......Jiujitsu is hard.

[@the_joker_oficial]

me too , i will try the number 3 , i will telk you about this

[@ThatKenpoGuy]

I feel you on this! I think it's more important to develop the good habits though. I ma decent sized guy so I can muscle through and attack other beginners in guard but I try not to as it will just retard my progress in the long term since I would just have bad habits that are hard to break.

[@IkeTomas2010]

Drill drill drill drill you'll figure it out.

[@eclipse7682]

I love you guys that was so accurate

[@mikec857]

Thanks

[@lborate3543]

Have fun drilling! It’s like playing catch in “ball sports”.

[@dubravkosaric565]

Can you make a video of the drills with youre arms and like how to move away when someone tries to hit you?

[@primalbeef7216]

No because its bjj

[@Clean97gti]

I got the chance to be in a class with Prof. Mica Cipili here in Vegas and he was going over some guard passes. I was in his guard and lost my balance and put my hand down, but being a newb white belt, I didn't really think anything of it. WRONG!!!! He said "ooooh, don't do that because I can get a kimura" and like freaking lightning, I was in the kimura. LOL oops.

[@raidenblood6169]

Hello, would BBJ be a good introduction to martial arts? I’ve looked into others and honestly BBJ interested me the most. But is it good for a starter?

[@FigNasty208]

Just a friendly reminder, it’s BJJ (Brazilian Jiu jitsu) I started as a complete beginner at 24 years old and love it. Give it a try, and dont get discouraged!

[@raidenblood6169]

@@FigNasty208 my bad haha I knew it was BJJ, but it was late and my mind wasn’t fully awake. I want to try it for sure. Im looking into it

Video editing mistakes: #1. Making the sound effects disproportionately louder than the content audio. I gotta turn up the volume to hear you speaking and then get the loud annoying dings along with it.

It's definitely a problem from your device

I'm guilty of number 5 😬😬.

I’m guilty of those first two. Natural instincts mixed with lack of knowledge can have bad results. LOL. I LOVE drilling though. I could do that all day. I’d rather drill than roll, tbh.

Isnt drilling tesame as kicking in the air, useless.

I’m not sure what you are referring to.
