This gym has such a good culture. That assassins vs villagers game could be really bad if someone goes too far. But because the culture is so positive, everyone was safe. Great stuff!

6:56 sparring etiquette 101, when someone stops their headkick at your head so he doens't hurt you, you don't catch it. From here it of course is really easy to take the leg and get a takedown, but that wouldn't have happended if he didn't pull the kick. You just acknowledge it and go on

Looks like a lot of fun - and genuinely a good way to safely train for situations that sports martial arts can't really equip you for (for example, having to protect someone else, or having to grapple more than one person at once).

[@angrybunni]

agreed. I am whole heartedly jealous and HAVE to find a way to this gym, or at least try to incorporate some of these games at my own dojo, if at least once. Incredible!

[@Reiketer]

I go to this gym quuite often before. Its a really fun place to be at, nice people and love the things they teach. For those who are close by, highly recommend going there to check it out.

[@zZilent]

This was really cool, I like the guys perspective.

[@KeyserSoze23]

Imagine a discipline where raw athleticism meets pure artistry-a fusion of relentless combat and fearless freedom. Parkour MMA isn’t just a sport; it’s a statement. Fighters don’t just battle-they flow, leaping over barriers, scaling walls, and delivering precision strikes with the grace of a dancer and the power of a warrior. It’s about adaptability, creativity, and dominance. A fight isn’t confined to a ring; it’s an open canvas where the athlete paints their masterpiece. This is evolution in motion-an unrelenting display of what’s possible when the human body and mind operate at their peak. Parkour MMA isn’t just a new way to fight. It’s a new way to think.

That guy you pinned in the first spar was a lil dirty lmao. He landed the headkick but pulled back on it so that he didn’t hurt you. Catching the leg and taking them down when they do that is a no go.

That's the nerdiest gym I've ever seen and that's pretty cool , the kids must love it and the adults must be having so much fun while having the workout of their lives. And I love the philosophy the Sensei teaches to his students. Protecting others is the strongest reason one can have to learn how to fight.

[@joshbeambjj]

He was actually levitating

[@PhnXFire2k23]

It's hard to really name throws 100% since it's no Gi, but all things considered, I would probably say Tai-Otoshi would be the closest. You didn't grab around his head and the body lock is just a version of "traditional grips" in Judo. Most of the throw was done with your hands which is exactly what Tai-Otoshi is.

[@joshbeambjj]

Interesting! I wouldn’t have thought taio but the leg placement does look very similar too huh

[@thebagnechannel3183]

Great video. This seems like fun.

[@Joseph981000]

At 8:00 that isn’t a koshi guruma since you don’t have your arm solely around his head. My first choice would be a body locked o-goshi.

[@joshbeambjj]

Damn, I thought the same thing, but one friend said koshi guruma so I wonder if it’s more about what the legs are doing than the head? Idk how the nomenclature actually works

[@Joseph981000]

@@joshbeambjj a textbook koshi guruma/kubi nage has one arm on the sleeve hand and the other wrapped around the head (almost like o-goshi, but your hand placement has moved from the waist to the head). Wrestling’s head and arm throw is the equivalent to koshi guruma, but since they don’t wear a gi, they have different variations of it. So your friend isn’t wrong for that conclusion. 👍

[@joshbeambjj]

Got it, makes sense! Appreciate the elaboration

[@ratiKhidureli]

It was harai goshi

[@DieZombiefication]

@@joshbeambjj The body lock does look like a o-goshi type of setup, but you didnt't throw him soley over your hips but rather trip him over your outside leg. Because of the outside leg positioning my first thought was harai goshi but you didn't sweep him with that leg. Probably something in between harai goshi and taio

[@RAPEDBYBLACKS]

[@WiljonGuarin]

A koshi guruma is an ogoshi but around the neck not from an underhook. That was more of a wide harai goshi from an underhook. almost a osoto gari, but since you threw forward I think it was harai.

previous year i tried starting bjj in my local bjj gym and honestly it sucked. the people sucked the teachers sucked. they werent friendly only to the og members from the gym. to new guys and i was basically the only really new one they werent friendly and supportive in teaching me. i spent a year being submitted non stop full tryharded without them telling me how to improve and it made me lose my insterest for martial arts. seeing this changes that again and makes me believe that it really depends from gym to gym. the vibe there seems amazing not mattering the skill level. how he even said if u feel ur oponent is not the same level go easier on them. i wish i had a gym like this nearby.

[@joshbeambjj]

Ah damn yeah honestly sounds like you might’ve been in the wrong environment. It can differ a lot just based on each different gym. There are a LOT that have a much more welcoming less tryhard vibe.
