Honest question: do you spar with any other fighters? If so how does it feel fighting a wrestler or Judoka, compared to a BJJ expert? Is it harder or easier or just different?

Wasn't expecting this but I met Alexis 5 years ago at a seminar we hosted at our gym in Guelph. He got his purple belt from Syl Moroney, my professor's professor. One of the most genuine teachers I've ever met in Jiu Jitsu. He passed away recently & was awarded his Coral Belt by Royler Gracie posthumously. I wish I got to see him again before his passing, he held a seminar a month before the incident at my gym but I was in the US at the time. He was the first blackbelt in Canada & the first Canadian Coral Belt. RIP Syl

Can you do a video on slowing the pace of a roll down if your opponent is stronger and faster/more explosive. im 125 and often sparring people that are 170 and having trouble getting my grips as they blast through everything and get me off my base easily. So I really need help in slowing the pace down and making them play my game.

Alexis is my instructor. A little secret about these kinds of flow roll: takes two to dance the tango. if the other guy refuses to exchange, you wont ever have these. Like you know those blue belters who pin you into side control and refuse to let go, to the point of stalling ? I used to be trapped under these stallers until I met Alexis and he taught me more.

He was always athletic and highly technical and pushed me to the limit of my anaerobic and cardio threshold. If he's a great grappler, so are you Jordan. Thanx again.

@@yannmoyes2493 Purple belt is the belt where you come across a lot of people who are just blue belts who've done it for a long time, meaning there's not a huge difference to a good blue belt. Also people spend a lot more time as purple belts than brown belts generally and I'd say most people who get a brown belt stick it out to black belt.
@Nycjr9810 ай бұрын
Hey Jordan, why wouldnt he be a black belt already? He seems very good 💪🏻 and you stated he’s more skilled than the average black belt, but what would be holding him back from getting a black belt?
@JordanTeachesJiujitsu10 ай бұрын
Because the belt system doesn't make any sense and there's huge inconsistency between coaches. Some coaches hold people back for ages. Some promote very quickly. Personally Id either do away with belts entirely or only have 3. One for beginner, intermediate and advanced.

There are young athletic blue belts that can tap black belts... and not just the ones that have trained since they were kids. I think belts are just an indication of how much experience and knowledge you have but that doesnt always mean you can force these techniques onto someone who is way heavier or younger and more athletic. It helps for sure but young, strong and technical is just the perfect storm.

😄Yeah, these young up and coming purples are beastly. We had a young European purple belt come in to the gym I train at, I'm a brown belt and he beat my ass nothing I could do to stop him. After I was like man I really suck. Then he proceeds to sweep or pass 4 out 5 black belts, all not slouches by the way (like most of them are former regular IBJJF competitor black belts, older now) This purple belt was like 20 and turns out he regularly get gold or silver at big IBJJF tournaments around Europe. Kid was amazing. This upcoming generation of Jiu-jitsu practitioners is going to be insane.

Actually, it's much more fun to watch a high level purple belt match than any other. The browns and blacks are more mature but also more relaxed, they don't take any risks, sometimes it's a bit boring when two guys sit in 50/50 for minutes... Meanwhile the crazy purple competitors are basically highly skilled kamikazes: they jump, spin, do all the crazy stuff.
