Jordan Ellis BJJ Purple Belt Demo

[@roydean]

Awesome work Jordan!

[@darkomajeric71]

Beautiful demonstration, great display of technique and excellent movement by Jordan. Congratulations Jordan Ellis. It must be a great feeling to be awarded by your Father and roll with a Professor Roy Dean at the end. OSS

[@ccmills87]

I was watching Roy Dean Blue belt 2.0 and realized it was Jordan and recognized him from the art of skill crash course in bjj. I had wondered if he had his purple belt yet. I’m so glad to see this. Congratulations Jordan!

[@andrewj6231]

I can only dream of the time I get to be as quality a practitioner as the students in this video. The quality of your belts seem very high from a beginners eyes. Best cinematic BJJ vids on KZbin. Wish I lived near the studio/school you run.

[@andretullier3469]

Keep showing up. When I first started I had purple do what they want and I couldn't defend. I've been a purple belt for a year and whites and blues look at me the same way. Don't stop showing up and you'll get there. Remember it's a journey not a destination

[@surfingdonster7727]

Unbelievable.........I was searching purple belt explanations as I was wondering if my bluebelt experience is in alignment with the requirements or understanding as a purple. This video just humiliates my ego. This is the most comprehensive and skilled bluebelt level I have ever witnessed. Back down to "I suck" level I go.

[@rgrapplerinoc2617]

Sharp, Crisp, Clean...most importantly grappling maturity. Keep up the Great work there.

[@rollinOnCode]

wow! your son move so well. love how technical and smooth he is. great job jordan ellis!

[@Anthonysk9]

New purple belt here. I love watching your guys tests. Such good stuff!! Thanks for sharing your jiujitsu and content with the world. Cheers.

[@fiachoconnor]

Jesus I'm a purple belt too but that demo is so impressive. Inspiring to say the least. I haven't rolled in 16 months because of lock down but I want to get some of these techniques going. Amazing!

[@dougieladd]

The deep breaths of preparation... before Roy D's bout. I could feel your thoughts at that moment. Well done mate... excellent work. I'm beginning to love this channel.

[@makan1568]

This is freaking amazing skilled blue belt!💪👍👌🧐 well deserved Purple Belt. It was well spent 27:35 time to watch your Demo man. Great jiujitsu! Shout out to your coach.

[@richardbarbell5145]

Absolutely gorgeous technique Jordan. Seriously beautiful stuff.

[@scottyb.8710]

If this were my son I’d be so damn proud of him! Way to go Jordan!

[@detailman04]

Jordan, you're inspiring! I'm in this for seven months and Jiujitsu has changed my life so much. It's the best thing I've done for myself as an adult, I am 55 years old now. Thank you for sharing your Jiujutsu journey with us. Enjoy your life, sir!

[@VIDEOSROK]

Great technics!!! you absolutely deserve your Belt!!!

[@zoltancaputo9562]

Oss guys! Awesome exam! The first battle was amazing ... I remembered my blue belt ... a lot of energy and willingness to do the best.

[@neilbradley1036]

Beautiful technique by a another purple belt, as usual, awesome.

[@edwinberroa9201]

That dedication. Grit! And love for this art. Jordan. You rock brother !!! Professor Ellis and Professor Dean. Great work in the grooming and development of this young man ! Osssss

[@p.treyben5567]

These demos are so Epic!!

[@russsalo5282]

Really really beautifully done!! So inspiring from a humble Alliance Ottawa Canada Blue Belt --

[@chesslover8829]

Congratulations, Jordan, your movement on the mat was fantastic!

[@mephistosteiner8064]

Why do I get so emotional with these videos?!

[@rickbradford4356]

Amazing and very inspiring 👏 congratulations

[@artmzrbn]

Inspiring for me- rookie white belt 40 y.o.🙂 Jordan looks pretty mature person and I'm confident a lot- Jordan is going to have great success in life

[@Durin_Son]

As a white belt I'm very inspired. Hopefully I can get there someday. I wish I could train with you guys

[@user-kd3hg5yu4n]

This is what I aspire to in my BJJ. Developing such fluid movements. Well done Jordan! Was an absolute pleasure watching this. :)

[@dynamitecity9667]

So fluid in his movements. An absolute art. The game of Human Chess

[@seamac7564]

Another amazing video. Congrats Jordan, your hard work and mat time shows. Love these display of artistic fluidity or...murder yoga. Thank you.

[@xenaallen741]

So amazing Jordan! What a spectacular video!

[@TheloniusJ]

Crisp! Outstanding performance. Huge congrats!

[@user-kd3hg5yu4n]

2:02 what pass is that called? So slick

[@kingchief4038]

Some people may not realise the black belt was letting him work, which is the true mark of an upper belt. Great Demo that first blue belt is ready for his purple..

[@armyofficer11a]

Awesome stuff! Mat time, it shows clearly! Congratulations! Job well done.

[@ianfaulkner6870]

Haha, it's the kid from my RD online Blue Belt course. Congrats Jordan, well done.

[@TheLocomatic]

Awesome job! Congratulations!

[@annalina5398]

Wooh! That's awesome! Great work Jordan!

[@anoosh2075]

Congrats! well deserved...

[@tpalo6802]

Very inspiring, well done.

[@markhenderson3771]

That was very well done. Few gyms/academies have tests these days. Jordan was mentioning the requirements that he “prepared for”. What are those? When did he start specifically preparing, relative to his test? Who determined his partners for the rolling portion?

[@TheArtofSkill]

We stay pretty faithful to the requirements that Roy Dean established for each belt. Usually we give students a couple months to get ready. The rolling partners are chosen by the coach spontaneously that day.

[@markhenderson3771]

@@TheArtofSkill thanks for your response. Where can I find out how to choreograph a test like that?

[@mang6423]

Always great videos!

[@그러냐-d2p]

제가 배워야 할 기술들이 다 있군요. 도움 되는 좋은 영상 올려 주셔서 감사합니다.

Much respect Jordan.

[@karmafarma75]

Inspirational. A moving watch

[@matthewcrawford4216]

No stripes?! Hard to determine a new blue belt from a seasoned one. Props for the promotion. Your skill is clearly evident.

[@matthewcrawford4216]

@@TheGunnyBadger03xx interesting. Stripes do help identify progress through the colored belts. Interesting that you do it with white and black but not others. To each his own.

[@Channysupreme]

I’m a white belt with 2 stripes, how can I get better? My professor gets mad at me I think because I’m a bit slow

[@Observer-kw7vu]

Very impressive!

I'm sure Jordan is a black belt by now? I'm late to the party. But congrats, Jordan. Such a respectful young man.

[@DDIAZ-we4dz]

where is this mans school?

[@f91256]

just looked it up....wyoming :( probably wont be swinging by there anytime soon

[@mp9810]

I don't really get the whole test or demo thing that those under Roy Dean seem to do. You're either ready or you're not, your instructor knows. Smooth stuff though.

[@aaronholland2771]

Class Act 💪

[@martinwettig4108]

I want to be that kind of father once.

[@mikutajj]

Jordan...whatever that was at 6:20 I’m stealing it

[@TheArtofSkill]

Steal away! We stole the sweep from David Camarillo!

[@jeffdj1975]

[@nicpics01]

Do these guys compete ?

[@TheArtofSkill]

I wouldn't call us a "competition school", but we do go to regional tournaments and generally do quite well. Here are the results of our most recent comp: facebook.com/thirdwaybjj/posts/174309674700510

[@grimsbybrazilianjiu-jitsu7423]

Has anyone ever failed one of these?

[@RickEllis_]

Generally when you're asked to put a demo together it's because you're at that level and ready for the challenge. We don't call them tests, we call them demos, because it's an opportunity for you to showcase your BJJ in front of your friends, family, and teammates. It's a rite of passage more than a test. It takes work to put a solid demo together, and the process always gives your game a big boost. That's why we do it. We think of it as sharpening the blade as you cross into the new rank. That said, it's always harder than the student think it's going to be. A lot harder, actually. But with the right preparation, most do pretty well. Almost everyone gasses out to some extent. I've been to a few demos where they didn't manage their energy well and crawled to the finish line.
