Jiu-Jitsu Striking Entries to Takedowns

[@kjuarez29]

Love them all. For Takedown #3, you have also have an option of dropping into an Osoto Gari, which is a personal fave of mine and a lot of Nogi guys dont see coming, and it gets you past the legs. All good stuff! Thanks so much for sharing.

[@rozennbergfridi9206]

Nice. Other couches should be more like you. I love your focus on self defence.

[@Kev80ification]

Alot of clubs need more of this training.

[@ssj360fan13]

I like this because it's a Karate mindset to strike before trying to take your opponent down if necessary. Awesome video! OSU.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Absolutely. Karate is commonly misunderstood as to its grappling applications in most systems of it. There is so much more grappling in many systems of traditional karate than many realize. Thank you!

[@kwarijanuar6044]

Knight Jiu-Jitsu yes, especially ryukyu/okinawan based karate... 😊😊😊

[@ericr2617]

This channel is absolute gold

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you for that!

[@MixedMartialHelp]

Right on! This is an area I absolutely LOVE! Transitional strikes can be a whole martial art of it's own!

[@oneguy7202]

Bjj and gjj has the same things and techniques but focus in different aspects gjj focus in self defence and d vale tudo(nhb or unarmed self defence) when bjj just gocus on sport gi or no gi. Personally i prefer to be able to deal with strikes and real life senarios without no rules that also have been test in cage or challenges and lose some completion matches. Great and useful video

[@cauazeolladuarte1415]

what would be gjj?

[@Stuntsandtricking]

Your vids are badass and punch protection gaurd vids, truly tight💯💯

[@Chandasouk]

Great channel. A lot of people wouldn't know how to clinch without getting blasted in the face. This makes me really wanna find a good MMA gym now but man, everything is so expensive. As always, for self defense, having a good 40 yard dash helps too lol

[@MinhaFamiliaAQBJJ]

The jab to lead hook is my fave :) simple but so effective

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I love this combo too. I hit it more than any other in sparring.

[@criostasi]

Excellent video. Striking as a distraction, go to clinch and then takedown and ground and pound would be my bread and butter if I was a fighter. But I am not... Just a lover of fighting sports, adsorbing what could be really usefull in a 'street fight' situation and training it as much as I can...

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you for the comment. I hope this video could offer a few things. Thanks!

[@Jamie-fl2im]

Great vids.

[@robertgarsee8128]

Another Awesome video bro!!!

[@stonewall-mz7yl]

Hip toss there too. At the end. And a few other Judo takedowns (the ones most common in UFC/MMA).

[@mikelagman7662]

excellent style.

[@minlee5376]

Wow this is amazing

[@nicocontreras5366]

Nice ideas, is all about the mindset , even if I train in amore sport focused gym I am always trying to get concept of closing the istance and taking down.

[@eyeswideopenareyours6952]

School on Father's day. Thank you

[@ccsiz]

HAppy new year coach! Great video as always!!

[@juansalinas4892]

Cool man, I follow your channel and I try apply your techniques... guess what??? It's work perfectly for me hahaha thanks for share.

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you! That’s awesome to hear!

[@sdotbell]

I’m using all of these in my next fight

[@theconcheror5691]

Is it a good thing to have experience in both bjj and wrestling?

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Absolutely

[@kevinandrade9446]

Hell yes

[@NoverMaC]

if it's hard ground then when they fall it's pretty much game over (given enough impact)

[@piggybank9899]

Happy New yr great work

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Thank you. Happy New Year to you as well.

[@piggybank9899]

Knight Jiu-Jitsu do u have a webiste for ur fit to fight gear?

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

These rash guards aren’t on my personal site but you can get them through Fit-to-Fight online!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

www.wearefittofight.com

[@schoolsofselfdefense3646]

You’re my favorite BJJ page.

[@JrKinabalu]

Street jiu jutsu please.

[@jamesholt2705]

Excellent video as always Eli. I just wondered what your view is on grappling/bjj for the street. Obviously a lot of your techniques are more street applicable, but do you think grappling is a viable go-to tactic if escape and avoidance doesn’t work? Or are there just too many risks of getting kicked etc? Thanks again and keep doing what you do!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I think everything depends on context and awareness of the situation/conditions. Grappling is necessary many times whether it’s preferable or not, and fights go where they go. Avoidance is obviously best. But whatever ends the fight as quickly as possible is best if avoidance isn’t possible. There are many risks in any fight, but knowing how to fight from every range and manage the ranges as well as possible is optimal. Hopefully, that answers what you were asking and I didn’t get too off topic. Haha. Thanks!

[@jamesholt2705]

Knight Jiu-Jitsu Thanks! That was really helpful and I totally agree. You want a plan for every eventuality, because often fights get messy and end up on the floor etc. Thanks again! I don't suppose you have any recommendations for places to train in London?

[@jamesholt2705]

Knight Jiu-Jitsu ill look into them. Thanks for all your help, it is much appreciated!!

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

My friend Jon Hegen is in Upminster I believe, if that isn’t far from you. He is a great instructor with a wonderful academy.

[@animeshghosh3825]

Wishing you a very happy new year

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Happy New Year to you as well!

[@manncavemoment]

Can you do any knife stuff like if you are to late to stop the knife coming out what is your Preference would you Handle The situation standing up or on the ground

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

I would prefer not to be in a fight at all! Especially if someone has a weapon. Avoidance first, end it standing if possible, grappling standing or ground if necessary. Whatever it takes to get out safely. As for knife considerations, I wouldn’t take quite this approach if he had a knife displayed. Other considerations and technical approaches would be necessary.

[@manncavemoment]

Knight Jiu-Jitsu okay Appreciate the response Question two If the person Sitting next to me Decides to attack What grappling options are available

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Good question and topic. Hard to describe here, but I will try to dedicate a future video to this. I’ve spent some time with this because of people concerned on public transportation and kids on school buses. Thank you for the idea.

[@thiagohenrique2176]

Muito top esse golpes!OSS

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

Obrigado!

[@tranthitonhu787]

How to defense kicks in clinches.

[@plugwalkyt6996]

Effective but you gotta be fast with it but need to learn how to punch both hands

[@kwarijanuar6044]

Wow, that is final technique look like a pin in wrestling and you got 1 2 3 pinfall victory😅😅😅

[@worldofjitu285]

Bjj is better or wrestling is better??

[@RingoAnselmo]

"Offensive striking"

[@mauricedebeer4300]

but in the single leg take down the head should be on the side not in the middle

[@KnightJiuJitsu]

It can be finished that way, but it’s a little dangerous entering like that. And it can be finished with the head inside like I showed. There is also more chance of getting choked with the head on the side.
