About the fundamental offensive positions in brazilian jiu jitsu

As we have been learning, brazilian jiu jitsu is a game of positions and transitions between them, looking to get dominant positions, not allowing the opponent to escape as you find gaps, or generate openings for executing submissions:

The most dominant positions from which you can launch submissions, sweeps or go to other dominant positions are the following:

  • Guard (Closed, Half Guard or Open variants such as Sitting, Spider, X, de la Riva, Butterfly among others): from the guard you can sweep, take the back or submit
  • Side Control  or 100 kilos: you can transition to the back or mount or submit
  • Knee in the Belly: you can transition to the back or mount or submit
  • Mount: you can transition to the back or submit
  • Back: you can transition to the mount or submit
  • Turtle or four points: you can take the back or submit

About the blue belt requirements in brazilian jiu jitsu

The blue belt is considered by many great masters of brazilian jiu jitsu the foundation for all the evolution up to the black belt. Rickson Gracie for example has commented: “What the athlete lacks after the blue belt is practice and reflexes. He has everything he needs to be a black belt, he just lacks consistency.” That is why most of the academies and teams that have proposed a system of requirements to access the blue belt have included a large number of techniques and aspects that seem like a world to anyone who is starting out.

You will need to learn basic movements, transitions, and develop muscle tone, stamina, as well as improve weight distribution and control. You will need to acquire knowledge and techniques of self-defense and to fight on your feet, pull and pass the guard, as well as defend

About the Purple Belt in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu

The purple belt is one of the most rewarding belts in Brazilian jiu jitsu but at the same time one of the most frustrating for many people when they don't see the brown belt coming. In our opinion, the fundamental problem with the purple belt is that it requires the development of a personal game, where each person begins to choose and perform certain techniques and combine them to make them more efficient. Whereas a blue belt knows the basics and has an arsenal of  techniques so to speak, the purple belt begins to specialize in some guard passes, takedowns, sweeps  and submissions. It is at this point where it is necessary to understand that the development of this game of combinations is something very personal and that it takes a different time for each person. Many purple belts ask teachers what they need to do to get to brown or believe that evolution depends on learning more techniques instead of polishing their techniques and combinations to make them more efficient.
