How To Sweep Like A Black Belt... Load The Hips.

[@matthewcrawford4216]

I really love the commentary of these quick sparring matches. The notes on getting your opponent loaded on your hips was great. There is something that just clicks with the slow mo movements and the commentary. It’s a perfect way to explain why some moves do or don’t work.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man, I'm glad you find it helpful 🙏👊

[@renechunilall6059]

Training in a South African(Durban) gym, most grappling sessions are No Gi, so I would definitely love seeing this being done with No Gi :)

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Definitely will do a nogi version soon! It's so cool to feature so many people at the gym at once too!

[@renechunilall6059]

@@JordanTeachesJiujitsu one heck of a learning experience :) P.S. Over the last few months, your content is helping me make amazing progress as a white belt and I love being able to use all of this to bring value to the rest of the gym. I never expected this would happen, so thank you!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

That's amazing man. Makes me really happy to hear that. My pleasure!

[@Felipe-ye9ni]

@@renechunilall6059 Are you still a white belt?

[@renechunilall6059]

@@Felipe-ye9ni thanks for the question! I literally am only a few months in, so yes I still am a white belt :)

[@jessiegardiner7780]

As a newer white belt your narration and explanations really help paint a picture on how to think about Jujitsu!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Glad to hear that, man! Happy it's been helpful 🙏

[@JacksonMaxey1]

Thank you for these commentaries. They are very insightful and the editing is top notch. I look forward to learning more!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thank you so much 🙏 Working on another good one right now!

[@brock77kb83]

hey Jordan, your videos of commentary and rolling with your white belts lead to amazing learning tutorials for new white belts like my self. You give a tone of information with each of these short rolls. Awesome job man

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

I appreciate that! I work really hard on them and am always so happy to help everyone 🙏

[@ryanmckenna2015]

That one principal alone of loading the passer onto your hips has helped me so much. Guys I was struggling to sweep are now being swept. Just stumbled across this BJJ channel, its now probably my most watched. Thanks for the great content , keep it up 👍

[@Cloudyfes]

👊🏽 Excellent commentary! I'm learning so much!

[@birrchr]

Superb content. I really like to see the annotations about the positions. Really drives it home how in 20 seconds the path to sweep is often through a full chain of positions before the work of sweep is done. sit up guard to collar sleeve to de la riva to x-guard and sweep from there. King of the mat is so great for hitting all these different paths. Bravo!

[@robjarrett7026]

I can't state how awesome and helpful it is to hear the commentary. Incredibly valuable

[@davijamesrberman3847]

thank you for explaining the importance of centre of gravity. That was actually really helpful to me

[@t.s.2006]

Had my 1st comp today and took 2nd place. Your videos helped a lot. You mentioned in a prior video you'd rather catch ppl on angles than pressure pass, would be great to see a video on angles.

[@KamilOttoman]

As a fresh white belt I love your content ! Some of these I may not be able to learn or apply now but it is great to see and hear the logic behind these sweeps/guards !

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man! A variety in terms of skills required for sure. Cool to think a lot of them, when do you do learn in class, will make so much ore sense now 🙂

[@edmorris4103]

Great video! I'm a bigger guy (6'4", 230) and generally prefer playing bottom, either closed or spider guard. This is great stuff! The thing about their weight over my hips to help the sweep will be so useful. Would love to see some spider guard sweeps in the future as well.

[@stevencunden7977]

Really enjoy the videos with white belt. As a white belt myself, it's a lot easier to relate and more importantly, understand what's going on. Love the content Jordan!

[@cowboy_bob7474]

Bottom half guard in the gi is exactly what I would love to see. Huge honor for Bernardo! Thanks for another great video and safe travels.

[@vincechanhealthy6373]

this was really cool. hopefully after that seminar you can do some separate videos on the sweeps like the one specifically on some of the half guard sweeps you did. That back step pass would be good too.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Definitely will do! So much content ideas compared to available time lol. Which is great though to know I'll have video ideas for years!

[@MrStrongBro]

Loved this! Hitting sweeps can be just as fun as hitting submissions.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Definitely! Thank you 🙏

[@benjamingoh6715]

Thank you for this .. I needed it. Past couple weeks, I have been trying to work on sweeps .. While I have been finding lots of success on the newer/lighter people, I always get stuck against bigger guys or high belts, especially those with great base and control grips. The way you let people come into you, and use their momentum against them, instead of fighting against them to get the sweep is really enlightening. "Path of least resistance", I always hear you say it but I never really listened. I think I kind of get it now. Thank you Prof.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Makes rolling so much easier when you let people make their own mistakes and capitalize. Definitely try and implement into your rolling and see the difference it makes!

[@rhubarb2407]

This was excellent in the sense that it gave me a much greater appreciation of how to start a roll when guys that are trying to pass aggressively. This ties in with your grip fighting video nicely. I'll need to watch this a few times to catch all the variations but live examples and different options against the different opponents is exactly what I feel I need right now. Thanks so much!!!

[@lunalove2259]

GREAT video. This is exactly what I asked for. Thank you so much Jordan :) I need to watch this a thousand times, my guard is so trash. I feel more comfortable in side control than I do in most of my guards. This video will help me so much. OSS!

[@garryrivera]

Great stuff. I love your videos. I am a first stripe white belt and am working on sweeps really hard to improve my game. I have to watch these videos again and again. Thanks 😊

[@james.randorff]

100% would love to see this in a no-gi context. Honestly, I would love to see a breakdown of no-gi grip fighting, as it is related to, but different from, gi grip fighting. Outstanding video, as always! 👊🏽

[@maafa21MustSee]

This is my second favorite video. First day back after 3 week break (covid) and was able to hit some of these. And I have never played any open guard (8 months in). Mainly top player but this makes the bottom so much fun. Would really appreciate this same format in no gi. Great stuff, thank you!

[@JK-74]

That was great. 👏 I hope you and Nikki enjoy yourselves when you go to shoot that video in Boston. 😊 When it comes to working either on top or from guard, I would've said on top before watching this video. 😉😄 Honestly as you demonstrate, being proficient in both positions is the most effective way to ensure success. 👊

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man! We're going to vlog the experience too. Will be a cool learning experience how to do that. Looking forward to the whole thing 😁

Beneficial as always; I really like these types of videos and I appreciate how it was slowed down so I could observe even closer. I have implemented multiple techniques from your previous videos and needless to say they have stepped up my jiu jitsu game, thank you. 👍🏼

[@mysticks08]

Guard. Because I feel like whenever Im against anyone bigger they most often get me to the ground. So I sorta settled and started working on single leg X, x guard and half guard variations. Works wonders, and watching you helps a ton. Looking forward for your instructional! 🤛

[@frankgarguilo2734]

Congrats on BJJFanatics. "Huge honor for you". Great video. Tried to focus on grip fighting today. I see how it's so important. I'd love a drilling video on defending the berimbolo. A purple belt is killing me with it. I know whats coming and it doesn't matter. Great job as always.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Definitely will do. I gotta do a rolling commentary with a berimboloist!

[@DrenneRvc]

Loved this. I like seeing the different people at the gyms and how they approached the passing.

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thank you! Sometime soon I'll do a higher belt addition. Purple and up only :)

[@maafa21MustSee]

Yes please, this would be very helpful in no gi. Also adding how do you handle someone who is very quick and athletic aggressively running around you in a circle trying to pass both legs into side control? I try to keep spinning on one hip and get my foot past the closest leg for half guard but it is a real battle.

[@texasballa0407]

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Happy to hear that! Always the little things that make the most difference. A d the little things often aren't talked about as often as they should be 🙂

[@pculotta]

This video is massively helpful to me for seeing transitions between different open guards; I'll be watching this video many times. The commentary is great - the explanations of why you are taking certain grips, and your thoughts while countering your opponents movements, are really connecting some dots for me.

[@drhacketthealth]

Awesome man. Looking forward to the half guard instructional!

[@JordanTeachesJiujitsu]

Thanks man, me too! 😁

[@strattonbrazil]

Commentary is hilarious, but also shows how many bad habits I have. Wanting to be good "on my back" so I start on my back and immediately get passed in Torreando or something. I like hearing the fundamentals, Jordan.
