Happy new year everyone! Thank you guys so much for subscribing and being a part of my KZbin/Jiujtisu/life journey. 2022 will be a breathe of fresh air and opportunity after 2 tough years in a row. I can feel it. I have a lot of planned and am looking forward to helping everyone in their jiujitsu journey! Also a big thank you to Robert for being on the show. I had to be on my A game for this one. Don't be fooled by my dominance. Robert is super skilled and deadly! 🙏👊🙂

Only started back in October (about 2 and a half months ago), but had a really cool but hard (for me because I was so out of shape) first session. For context i was 275lbs and hadnt exercised hard in a few years. Went in on an open mat night, after dming the fb page, where it was just the professor, another black belt and two blue belts. Joined in on the warmup, jogged the laps, did the stretches etc. I was ready to pass out and thought the warmup was done, but then the black belt showed me shrimping, technical stand ups and butt scoots while the other guys completed the warmup doing all those moves and rolls. Was already ready to vomit. Excused myself, got sick, came back and the black belt showed me some basics like a scissor sweep from guard (because I was nearly too tired to stand and didnt want to vomit on the friendly black belt) into a mount into an americana (with me taking vomit breaks every few minutes). Professor had me "roll" with him after about 35 minutes, as a last thing before I finished up. Was super fun even though I was exhausted because he guided me to do everything and would then put in a little fake "resistance" like lightly squirming essentially. I knew obviously he'd flip, bend and break me six ways to sunday if he wanted to but it was so incredibly encouraging. Then after he guided me to the americana we stood up, went again and he did some guard into a back take by taking me off my feet and juggling me with his legs (and I outweigh him by like 100lbs) then put me in a collar choke. I was laughing the whole time out of excitement or joy in his ability to just absolutely ragdoll me. He was smiling too and said as he was doing it "Keep doing jujitsu for a few years and you can do this to people too". I packed up and asked could I stay and watch the guys roll for the last 30 minutes. He said ofc and I've been hooked since. Managed to finish the whole drill classes and not vomit after about 3 weeks, and I've been rolling and learning since. Down nearly 30lbs now, hopefully keep losing some. Feel very lucky that the gym is relatively small because I get so much almost 1-on-1 training with the blue to black belts and the professor. My goal for 2022 is try to focus on surviving, escaping and just getting a better position and hopefully pick up a few taps along the way. Ideally get some stripes or if I really really commit and get lucky, a blue belt.

[@jonahtaylor2301]

Thanks for more narrated sparring videos. Found your channel when you posted “Black belt vs Wife” your channel is going to be big! Keep it up!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Glad you've been along for the ride! I appreciate it man 👊

[@laars8015]

The way you’re narrating the roll seems like Robert is doing great. I know you’re trying to be respectful but that was complete domination.

[@DrJamesonPhD]

Outstanding Jordan, your teaching is very much appreciated. I just finished my 13th class and I am extremely addicted to learning so your videos are certainly helping in this process combined with my own teacher (and peers) here in Tacoma, WA. Happy New Year and stay safe!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Glad you enjoy and learn from them! Happy new year :)

[@vii7712]

7:47 🤯 Truck Entry ! 🔥💯

[@jeremycheeseman7305]

My first class was amazing. I got choked out about 6x in 5’ by a 96lb teenage girl. I was 25. Was so amazed with the movements and control and had to learn it

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

That's why I love sending my wife to beat up the new guys. It's the biggest eye opener to the effectiveness of jiujitsu!

[@aqueento]

@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu This is awesome 😂

[@mephistosteiner8064]

Very interesting roll. Going through positions and explaining your basic actions to keep or transition is what makes this videp valuable to me. Please more, that's the little things no one teaches!

[@Ktranphoto]

Can't remember what my first class was like other then the fact that it was addicting. I walked into the gym that night thinking we were training boxing but to my surprise, everyone was wearing pajamas! Thanks for all you do Jordan, your videos have been extremely helpful and informative. Happy new year!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Happy to help man! Happy new year 👊🙂

[@aqueento]

Dude its super addicting!

[@rxscience9214]

This is my favorite bjj channel right now, the longer the video the better. Thanks Jordan!!

[@YotaDaryl]

Literally one of the best channels for BJJ

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man 👊🙏

[@rollintroll]

Jordan my man! Thanks for all the awesome content in 2021, and wishing you and your gym the very best 2022. Big OSS to Robert for coming through and showing love too!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man! Happy new year 🙏👊

[@kyleeboiceymacdonald9806]

My first class was a club at my university. There were about 16 white belts, then one blue, black and brown belt. sparring was aggressive but fun!

[@matthewoneill5354]

Yours is BY FAR the best Jits channel out there at the moment. I LOVE your style. Wish I had that level of BJJ near me...

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thank you so much man 🙏 Means a lot to me 🙂

[@jasonb8665]

I’m a life long Martial Artist. Your knowledge and flow are incredible brother .

[@abrownone441]

I love these videos so much. I broke my foot rolling and watching videos like these keeps me motivated to come back and gives me something to enjoy/learn during my rest time. Keep em coming!

[@TreyTurner8]

You've helped me bunches as a white belt in understanding transitions, and having a bit more understanding about what is happening whilest its happening!

[@Janumanji]

Adding the points in the side was great addition . Awesome video!!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Glad you think so 🙂

[@MattdoesJJ]

I’ve been watching your videos recently, I love the addition of the point system! That *finally* earned my subscribe!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man 👊 Funny, someone gave me shit for putting the points in. They said it was "hella lame" 😅. Glad it's appreciated. Thank you for subscribing!

[@MattdoesJJ]

@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu wow, really? I’m only a few months into JJ and with a wrestling background I think about this during the rolls. Lets me keep a tally in my head on who’s leading and when to push/relax

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

I get a lot of dumb rude comments haha. It's like some people have never heard a monotone voice before lol. That's one people love to point out. I had a recent one too where someone said I wasn't a blackbelt because I fixed my rashguard when it rode up 😅. The internet is a weird place. I think keeping track of the points in your head is SUPER smart to do. That's exactly what I did as a white/bluebelt. It makes for a clear objective when there's no submission. I still do it if I roll someone really good haha.

[@MattdoesJJ]

@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu with success will always come more haters.. keep up the great work man.

[@thelifeofpieman]

Great video again and the captions are getting better with each video. The side smash is something I definitely want to work on this year.

[@ozzythewizardwhite]

First class I popped a rib and couldn't train for months.. but in that time I learned how to tie my belt 3 different ways.. I remember watching you compete as blue belt at Ryerson..

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Rib injuries are so painful 😩. That's so cool man, that you remembered me from all the way back then. Times flies!

[@b-raddad1334]

I like how you break this down and your thought process. Thank you!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man! Glad you enjoy it 👊

[@tornjak096]

Maaaan I just love how old school jiu jitsu destroyed new one where is goal just to attack legs and submit opponent, but they are ignoring guard retention, escapes, open guard etc. Great roll

[@poutou1283]

It's awesome to see such high level bjj. You can clearly see how technical both of you are. Great job!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thank you! Robert is super skilled. Had to be on my A game for this one.

[@poutou1283]

@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu I love that RDLR to saddle entry that you do. I'm trying to add it to my game. I'll definitely come and roll with you guys if Canada ever stops being a crazy country and allows me to come back to my own country😄

[@davidaurard6800]

Merci. Meilleures voeux pour cette nouvelle année de Suisse.

[@kristophergreen5544]

I love that you use solid "basic" jiu jitsu to beat people who try to specialize in leg locks or the 10p system. This is the way.

[@marceloestephan1672]

Excellent pressure and use of centre gravity with core technique!

[@jptothetree]

You literally melted this dude. Impressive! Great video and analysis, as always.

[@classicprowrestlercoach]

Can’t get enough of these videos. I’m 4 classes in and I’m loving it. This is great to learn from.

[@godfirst2072]

My first class was me getting destroyed by a purple belt until I was taught an elbow escape. I like these videos. It brings order to the chaos of combat. Thanks for the posting them.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks for watching them 🙂

[@lebigdyl]

Great video! It some good insight! Some people are so focused on leg locking all the time that as we can see here, as soon as you pass the guard, it’s literally over for him, the basics are forgotten to focus on leg locks only

[@madbowler6]

Brilliant technique, excellent narration. That was some clean, clinical jiu-jitsu sir.

[@DillonJohnson216]

You've helped my BJJ a lot Jordan, a brown belt gave me a bruised rib 1 month ago, tomorrow I will train for the first time in a while can't wait!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Glad to hear that 🙂 Sucks about your rib. Hope your return to training goes well!

[@narong1204]

Thank you Professor Jordan. This is by far, the best way to teach concepts on youtube!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man. I think so too!

[@aqueento]

My first class was with a UFC champ and I didn't know it at all till about month or 2 later! It was a private lesson and he taught me 3 submissions and a couple escapes, he also taught me how to move around on my opponent from side control to north south (private parts all in my face btw) back to side control on the other side. He also taught me how to keep retention on a yoga ball. Time went by so fast and I loved it! Hurt my knee over the holidays but I can't wait till it heals so I can get back on the mat!

[@tavoleyva8235]

Amazing defense for butterfly guard, also the recommendations for it! Pressure, to avoid giving opportunities for the legs, nice!

[@devonallen1779]

thanks for all these videos I'm brand new to this sport, and your videos help so much especially the grip video that has really elevated my game thanks champ

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

My pleasure! I'm so happy to hear that. It's funny, that video didn't perform well in terms of views compared to my others, but I feel it has had the most impact on the people that did watch it so I'm very happy with it regardless. I appreciate you watchimg my channel 🙏Happy new year!

[@InTheGroove_]

As a beginner, these videos are so valuable. When I roll or watch other people rolling at the gym it’s hard to feel or see exactly what’s going on. But you are allowing me to have a better understanding and progress much quicker. Thank you🙏🏼👊🏼

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

My pleasure! Glad you're benefiting from them 👊

[@CountfilmsTV]

We've been getting comments about this account and its clear why!!!! Great episode Jordan, this was legit!!!!! 🔥

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thank you!! I'm a big fan of your channel as well 🙏

[@thurmangreen676]

My first class we worked on passing the guard then in live rolling I got thrown in to the wolves but I learn fast showing up every day I progress rapidly , and thanks 😊 Robert I need to learn to defend and countered leglocks

[@Blinkz]

My first class… I learned an Americana from mount, some basic positions, and rolled with a blue belt. Overall pretty fun.

[@kevincook8036]

My first jiujitsu class was a gi class on back attacking collar chokes and rnc 10 years later I still train with 2 of those guys from class 1

[@EvolveNowYoga]

It's really nice to see how smooth your movements are! 💪 Happy 2022

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man! Happy 2020 🤙

[@matthewcrawford4216]

Great roll. I've been utilizing the t rex arms, hand fighting for grips and staying connected during my sparring rounds. I've felt less smashed and more in control with those concepts. Now if I could just have an A game takedown... I'm trying the no GI snapdown ankle pick, but its hard for me to get consistently unless I have a GI to pull down.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Just takes time but will come :)

[@dawidb7053]

Hey, I just want to say I have finally attended my first BJJ class (to my defense I do a lot of boxing and I wasn't able to find a free spot for a looong time) and I absolutely loved it! I am super excited and even tho it was only 1:30h long I already have so many observations, I can't stop thinking about it :D And I want to share it with someone, but all my friends are asleep.. and not really into martial arts :D so the comment here was all I was left with I really like this channel, I reckon it's got a lot of potential, you have really nice approach to the audience and to the way the videos are made, don't change much, do your thing and the community will just grow and grow ;) cheers people!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man! I'm glad you tried your first class finally. That's awesome. The start of a long and incredible journey im sure 🙂

[@julianruiz6983]

Thanks Robert

[@TheJdOliver]

My first class we drilled from half guard to arm triangle. I was partnered with a purple belt. He was so patient and helpful. Such a great group of guys. Instantly hooked.

[@christisking1193]

You made that look effortless! Wow.

Fantastic video. definetly gonna have to learn that butterfly guard pass! looking forward to the next one 👍

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man!

[@jt1985]

Great video! I'm finding the principles helpful in class; lately, it's been the principle of never letting them control your head. I was rolling the other day and another student brought up what he was learning in your videos- you're helping a lot of people. Thanks for the pop ups regarding points earned - it's helpful for those of us considering competing.

[@djordjemilojevic3614]

It's amazing how much information you can get for free in this (and similar) videos. Details that you cover... Black belt in analyzing and explaining stuff! :D As "thank you" for sharing this with us here is the idea for you... I would literally pay for your explanation of some of my rolls and videos. Pointing out mistakes and giving advice how to fix them. Not only that, but I would probably be ok with you sharing them publicly, which can bring even more revenue through youtube. And i'm probably not the only one

[@averagegiuseppe5640]

That leg lock at 4:08 looks terrifying. Could you do videos on leg lock escapes. Your narration style is very powerful.

[@thurmangreen676]

Just love these vids. My fave rolling vids on KZbin. Thanks for the great content!

[@Owl-of-Minerva]

"Any choke I do I don't squeeze at all until I get in the perfect finishing position and if I can't I let go. You should do the same and spare people's necks and throats." PERFECTLY SAID

[@jamesmurphy2399]

Great video, mate. Since watching your tips video I've made an effort to keep my toes engaged during side control. This plus thinking in terms of wedges instead of body weight has really transformed my side control game so thanks heaps. Looking forward to following the channel in 2022.

[@brazilian_jiujitsu_4104]

Love these videos. The toe trick for pressure is a game changer!! Thanks for posting!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

[@chrisprice1394]

Your videos are the best in my opinion for learning some BJJ techniques on KZbin. My first lesson was learning the triangle choke and how to work from full guard.

[@martinmyggestik292]

Man, I needed this. Thanks!

Thank you! It was a fun one to make 🙂

[@FreddieEl]

Great roll narration!!! thanks for all your insights Jordan

[@gagarinbjj]

The first sub I learned (well, I was thinking I learned it) was the triangle strangle. I loved it so much I was setting in up everywhere. My girlfriend hated to live with me for a while 😅 Now 4 and half years in, she got used to it 😃

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Gotta get her training too! Took me 3 years to convince Nikki 🙂

[@jacquesbezuidenhout]

Stunning video. Love how you string your attacks together, with a failover either way - escalate forward and backwards. I only very recently learned the concept that it is okay to back out, like you do with the legs during a pressure pass, and not continue the pressure forward, which would give him that tighter connection on the legs. And yes, I use the idea of keeping the toes engaged on the floor more often too. The things we know we should do, but don't 😀 And definitely making a difference!

[@J10_33]

Thanks for sharing your knowledge, I’m fairly new so these videos where you explain everything are super helpful

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Glad they can help!

Thank you for the videos! I love your teaching style and explanations. Could you do some tutorials on leg locks, entrances, finishes, and defenses? Thank you in advance!! Happy New Year!

Love every roll commentary

[@matcore]

My New Year goal is to stop getting smashed and try more attacks rather than just defense. Great vid as always.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man! You will reach your goal for sure. I actually have a "how to not get smashed" video planned for this month.

[@renechunilall6059]

So much to say in one comment lol. The t-rex arms really help me protect myself when someone is trying to take advantage of their position! My first class had less than 7 guys in a small gym learning about twisting arm control and moving into arm bar or taking the back! Also, I loved the pointers here! Thanks you for the lessons! Wishing you the very best for the new year!!!

[@MikeTownsend]

God i love these videos, amazing commentary.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

[@hhbjj3125]

Outstanding video as always, the editing and narration is always on point, pls keep doing videos like this

[@MrStrongBro]

That smash pass is my jam!

[@tededo]

That leg lock spécialist was more concern about passing your guard. I love leg lock, if you ve watch ken shamrock vs pat smith , paul sass grapple or gary tonon, good leg lockers dont try to pass guards, they shoot for the stars and threaten your legs 24/7 when they roll. And, Jordan, you re so skilled its sick, you should roll with high level elite grapplers.

[@liexcz9377]

Great vid Jordan, have you ever thought about making a video on how you train outside of bjj? Lifting, running, etc. Think it could be really insightful for many out there including myself to have a better base for bjj, thanks!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Ya definitely! I plan to expand my content like that very soon 🙂 I'll be starting a weekly live stream as well I'm excited for!

[@uke_mike]

My 1st class.....Tanya, Literally more than 100lbs smaller than me, was a blue belt I believe or a very seasoned white belt, rolled me 2 rounds in a row and I got tapped over 20x. Most of them armbars...I remember thinking that if a person half my size could do this to me (I was 220lbs back then) that I needed to learn this stuff right away. From that night on I couldn't wait to do that to the "new guy" in a couple months or so lol Ive been hooked ever since. 2 years, 8 months and a blue belt later, I can now finally tap the "new guy" Great video Jordan and for anyone watching, Bobby is a leg lock beast! I look fwd to his classes every week!

Damn I'm gonna watch this video over and over. I got destroyed and continue to get destroyed by leg locks. It's just never something my training at my schools have covered (more traditional bjj). So I started to attend a weekly leg lock class at another school to supplement. It's helped but I still get caught a lot by leg locks. So this video helps understand some concepts.
