Nothing is new, just rediscovered. Damn straight. These moves are painted on the walls of tombs in Ancient Egypt (Princes of the Antelope District and of Baqti III).

[@KahnGenghis]

Egypt to Sparta

[@yaboi-km2qn]

I read the earliest depictions of wrestling (not necessarily submissions) were Neolithic so one would assume that people have been doing this since before homosapiens evolved.

[@graiant]

@@KahnGenghis More like sea people aryan to HITTITES TO egypt

[@KahnGenghis]

graiant the Hittites came before the Sea people and neither were aryan.

[@kodaspaws]

This is phenomenal ! I wanna train with snake pit so bad. It's so sad that not more people can see the genius of this.

[@Papasquatch73]

kodaspaws I agree. This is why I just opened a submission wrestling gym and became an affiliate so I can share catch with my area.

[@followingfist6]

Erik Paulson teaches this too...

People say Kurt angle ankle lock doesn’t work lmao this guy just proved it does

[@rikos007]

Incredible coach very importantly points out that the sub won’t always work as we are all shaped differently. Too many egotistical coaches out there that say a sub will work no matter what. The other great thing is coach wants to have questions asked of him. Amazing work

[@daxisperry7644]

Thats the best smell test of if a dojo is BS or not. If they ask for questions, they believe in their system and know how to defend it and explain how it works. Those places That get offended by questions, they dont know the science behind what theyre teaching

[@matsuwd-emethdaath4002]

Questions lead to learning and growth not to mention improvement of the unseen to the seen. Always be a student and absorb

[@captmoroni]

3:32 If he's a butt-scooter like he's got worms... LMAO.

[@zshakur]

There's nothing more impressive than watching a big man teach technique NOT brute force. Excellent video!

[@mykolas566]

Killer techniques. Always been a fan of the idea that any open guard should be directly attacked as opposed to passed where possible.

[@josuemartinez65]

Sir, you are now my KZbin coach, I'm gonna binge watch your videos and engrave them in my brain while I recover till I can get back on the mat

[@oneguy7202]

I wish catch was worldwide spread like bjj judo freestyle and there gyms everywhere like others arts.The art of submission is so underrated and hard to find

[@youmang]

Its all in the martial artist. Learn it use it, call it what you want

[@oneguy7202]

You Mang yeah but there is a huge diferrence in bjj, judo philosophy and catch. Also catch is the mother of freestyle and collage wrestling

[@kirkd81]

Hisoka Morrow agreed , catch wrestling is like every great aspect of wrestling & jj without the shit , it’s a killer art for straight up killers

[@Kev80ification]

I know, I would LOVE to do it, I am from Ireland and there's none here!

[@ronin6158]

things go in trends. It's frustrating and a real shame-- I'm in a major city and there are exactly 0 catch/sub wrestling gyms but a bjj on every corner. Just wait a few years and hopefully it'll come around again.

[@aliasunknown6972]

Excellent break down and explanation. I like your quote "nothing is new just rediscovered".

[@SnakePitUSA]

[@Willifordwav]

I hope no one at my bjj academy watches this. I can hold a de la riva on them for like 20 min lmao

[@dacoup5955]

Wow that is slick, been a boxer and nak muay for 15 years and in Muay Thai we have BJJ classes that follow after our adult classes, anyone who's ever been to legitimate gym can attest to the overlap and how the programs are structured but out of those 15 years i've never seen anything like this during their trainings ... I'm seriously interested in learning Catch wrestling, if you ask me this is the dominate force of grappling, thank you for sharing this wisdom with all of us and i seriously hope there's more attention brought to this dark art.

[@InvisibleHotdog]

At 4:07 and 5:29, with the left leg around Bane's right arm, especially at 4:07, I've got the impression that he can work it into a toe hold while standing on the left leg in the right armpit using the forearm to crank down

[@Ronin_Martial_Arts]

From England, not so far from the UK Snake Pit. Just came across the video. Great stuff, I teach Japanese Jujutsu so no floor butt scooting with worms 😂. On a side note, one of our students is the great grandson of Willian 'Pop' Charnock AKA Pop Saxon, who taught Billy Riley and I'm led to believe also Billy Robinson way back when. All the best from the UK.

[@BL0HARD]

I’d love to see BJJ fanatics do something with Coach Joel Bane (if he wanted to). Also would love to see a Joel Bane and Neil Melanson have a flow roll or even do a podcast or something. People should be lining up out the door to train with this bloke.

[@SnakePitUSA]

BL0HARD I appreciate the kind words. I’m trying to be more active on here. Neil and I have talked about joint seminars. He’s a good dude. However, I would tell BJJ Fanatics to go F themselves. That’s just a program trying to make their profit, and nothing more. What we do is 100% non profit. All seminars, events, merchandise sales etc. go back into Catch and special needs programs. I am blessed to have separate income. Snake Pit USA, Catch Magazine, USA Catch & ICWF are about passion. Hope that makes sense. Mark my words you will never see me on BJJ Fanatics. Best regards and thank you again! - J. Bane

I did Judo for years as a kid. Loved it. That said though, Catch Wrestling is fucking deadly. They can destroy the human body in seconds.

I’m shaky on the jiu jitsu trends nowadays, but has de la riva become more viable in no gi?

watching you RIP on bjj is so funny!! "if hes a butt scootcher like hes got worms" too good

Lol it’s really not meant to be a RIP on BJJ. Been doing BJJ for just a little over 26 years. I just can’t stand guard pullers or butt scooters lol. 🙏🏻 - J. Bane

[@THIS---GUY]

Can you please make a vid for countering the reverse DLH I find more guys in bjj use the reverse as it has a better grip and attacks

Give me a bit and I will get to it. In the mean time work your base. Don’t let ANYONE gain ankle control and work those old Frank Gotch Toe Holds 👍🏻 - J. Bane

​@@SnakePitUSA Thanks for your consideration Coach! If you do get around to it I'll definitely send you a a little for dinner on me or buy some of your gear! Where is you gym? Would love to come learn from you as I am primarily a freestyle wrestler so a lot of this seems so natural to me.

[@twistedbydsign99]

Is this actually safe to learn? Like the sparring that must follow instruction like this, is there much injury due to drilling leg locks/toe holds?

[@SnakePitUSA]

Yes, it is no more dangerous than any other grappling art when instructed by competent coaches with the correct student to coach ratio. Ive never witnessed or personally experienced a higher number of injuries than I ever sustained in 22 years of BJJ & Judo. - Best regards - J. Bane

Butt scoot’n like he’s got worms! Haha😅

[@jasoncruz582]

Im a karate black belt and train in Japanese jujitsu. But Catch wrestling is so cool. Every time i can learn a technique i drill it and add it to my style. Catch is for fighting no doubt. Bjj is a sport. Everything Catch teaches you can take it to the bank it works. God bless you sir keep up the greate work.
