“It’s not how much you learn in Jiu Jitsu, it’s how much you can remember under stress” No truer words have ever been spoken.

[@thefiddlediddler7701]

I love it. It reminds me of Tyson’s quote, “Everybody has a plan until they get punched in the face.”

[@LOLLYPOPPE]

You don’t remember anything you just do , it’s called muscle memory

putting on your underwear: mastering the system

[@yew2oob954]

When you are talking about clean and mop as it relates to the mat what you are really talking about is the overall cleanliness as it pertains to the mat The overall concept is cleaning which is, at its essence, sterilizing. Once you look at mop and its role in the cleaning process you are looking at, what I've come to describe, a 4 part system: 1. Preparation of the solvent and solute. 2. Proper technique of the mop itself. 3. Correct timing of when to clean. 4. And finally, maintenance of the mop itself. That is pretty straight forward. The greater concept of cleaning and by extension sterilizing gets into a larger topic which includes, number of students in a class, number of classes per day, the temperature, the humidity, the hygiene taught at the school, in terms of washing uniforms, and whether or not such measures as Defense Soap are used on a regular basis. I will cover that in a future video. Right now let's get started.... (-read above in John Danaher voice) I think I've been watching too many John Danaher videos

[@donnieyiu7139]

Gracie brothers use North South Near Far. Very easy to understand too.

[@Shaka_Garami]

Tremendous

[@andrewdickens5520]

East vs. West is more abstract and more clearly communicates opposing directions. Left vs. Right communicates the left side vs. the right side. What I'm assuming he was looking to avoid was someone taking the directionality literally (and only learning how to sweep from left to right).

[@Pwanx0w]

@@andrewdickens5520 Well if you don't have a compass east and west are basically the same as left and right, but i understand what you are saying!

[@magicbanana3393]

Pwanx0w You have to ignore what east to west actually means. It’s trivial, but id prefer left and right.

Darth Vader on camera duty again .

[@Tom_Framnes]

In my utmost humble opinion. “ Nothing more rewarding than getting ones thesis validated by those who exceeds oneself in excellence” “ Advanced are basics done correct” “ Wisdom equates to correct comprehended knowledge, appropriately applied “ “ Fighting is relativity in motion, never expect only respond, as it is ones opponent within context that dictates tactics” Truly appreciate you taking the time to post and share these incredibly valuable, as well as in depth instructional’s with all of us. Many take these opportunities for granted these days, as information is almost at an over abundance, a keystroke away, just one quick look at most comment sections testify to the asinine mindset so many possess, wasting their time to write obscenities and worthless jokes, when they have the opportunity to actually sit and listen to masters of their specific craftsmanship, sharing their experiences earned over decades of blood, sweat and tears, without cost, gratis, perceiving it as nothing, wasting themselves as pearls for swine. I do not write this to sound blasé, but i hope, despite for all the trolls and less worthy people that acquaint your channel Bernardo, that you don’t let it get to you. You and Mr Danaher’s incredible content has aided my BJJ journey in ways that I cannot begin to explain. It truly is an honor to be able to learn from such peer as yourselves, and I hope one day I get the honor and distinct pleasure, to meet you both in person. Sincere and utmost humble regards. Fellow martial artist. Tom Framnes. Norway.

[@mrblancojuan]

Truly respect this man's perspective and insight. True master of his craft.

[@Tyrell_Corp2019]

This is the kind of intelligence we deserve in martial arts. I've left a few studios because of too many knuckle draggers attending. I think there should a written intelligence/character assessment test well before a student even steps foot inside a dojo. The old stories of masters NOT teaching a student until the ego is broken is still of value. "You want to learn? Sweep... for five years. Then we'll see." Thank you Mr. Faria and Mr. Danaher.

[@malpa3]

Arrogant much?

[@mattpenman2284]

You sound like a terrible person.

[@robertjones8666]

Great video as usual. To piggyback on John's statement that the best athletes have a small stable of moves that are extremely effective, they also have the innate ability to create openings to introduce the element of surprise to effectively execute those moves. Merry x-mas to all! May your new year be filled with joy from all the new understandings that you receive from videos such as these.

[@jamesalafayette8255]

Thanks bitch!

Could listen to this man talk about painting a fence for 8 hours He would make it so interesting lol JD legend

[@jab2146]

There are 3 main skills you'll need to master to paint a fence. Each skill has 4 basic movements that are critical for success. Skill #1 - Choosing your paint color. Choosing your paint color, the "toso iro no sentaku," is one of my favorite ways to get a great coat of paint every time.

When the camera mans breathing is louder than Danaher….

[@claudiucosar]

.... how much you remember under stress! not how much you know in jiu jitsu. that's an awesome remark from Mr Danaher. I felt this the last time doing sparring and was exhausted, i never remembered all the moves to transition but only a few came to my mind and those were how to strive for the principle of sunk cost that again mr Danaher explained in a past lesson. great concepts and great man!
