 About the ways to surrender in a Brazilian jiu jitsu fight Although it may seem obvious to those who have been in Brazilian jiu jitsu for some time, for those who are starting out it is not so easy to find a way to express that we give up due to a submission, danger of injury or simply due to fatigue or overwhelm. For this reason, it is important to know how to express that you give up in a Brazilian jiu jitsu fight. Possibly the most used way is to hit lightly, with the palm of the hand on some part of the opponent's torso or on his arms. The second way can be to kick against the ground in case both of our arms are blocked. And the third and surely the most efficient is to express it verbally saying "Tap". As we said initially, it is very important to recognize that many times we must indicate that we want to stop the fight not only because we are caught in a submission but also to communicate that a finger has been trapped, that we are going to fall badly or that we ar...

About the fundamental positions in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Brazilian jiu jitsu is fundamentally a game of transition of positions. We are seeking positions of maximum control like the back, from where we can exert maximum control over the opponent. But in reality it is a dynamic game where at one moment you can be in a dominant situation and suddenly go into defense in a disadvantageous position. The most relevant positions are: Guard (Closed, Half Guard or Open (variants such as Sitting, Spider, X, de la Riva, Butterfly among others) Side Control  or 100 kilos Knee in the Belly Mount Back Turtle or four points  

About the differences between brazilian jiu jitsu with the gi and no gi The main differences between practicing brazilian jiu jitsu with the gi and without it are that you can not grab the clothes while you are training in no gi. Instead of making grips on any cloth of your partner you should use wrist grabs and neck ties, in the legs you can grip the partner's ankles. With regards to rules and the rest of sport aspects everything is the same except that some submissions are allowed for black belts in the adult category (up to 30 years) in competitions (heel hooks for instance)  

 About Sport BJJ competition. In official Brazilian jiu jitsu competitions, the fights begin standing up and have a specific duration for each belt in the adult category (athletes between 16 and 30 years old), the duration being as follows: White belts: 5 minutes Blue belts: 6 minutes Purple belts: 7 minutes Brown belts: 8 minutes Black belts: 10 minutes From 30 years and on there are the Masters categories and in these categories all the fights are 5 minutes long. The athletes are grouped into categories by (belt, weight and age) I leave an image of the IBJJF weight categories:     How is the winner decided? In a fight the winner is decided by submission or by points. Whoever makes the opponent surrender via submission wins, and the fight ends at that moment regardless of whether the loser had more points than the winner. If at the end of the fighting time neither of the two athletes has submitted their opponent, the one that has scored more points or advantages wins. To...

About the differences between Brazilian jiu Jitsu for sports and for self-defense. The fundamental difference is that in Brazilian jiu jitsu applied to self-defense, the aim is to play on top and never pull guard. We seek to close the distance while defending punches and kicks, perform a clinch and takedown that allows us to fall on the attacker and establish dominant positions (side control, mount or back) The fundamental objective is control and submission with the least possible damage. That's why strangulations such as the Mata Leon and The Arm Triangle are especially effective.

Differences with contact martial arts and sports. The fundamental differences are the prohibition of punches and kicks in the sport context, with the application of joint locks and chokes as main methods of finishing the fight. In the non-sport context the difference is that although punches and kicks can be applied, they are not the fundamental objective of Brazilian jiu jitsu. In case of applying them, the idea is to distract or generate openings in the opponent to gain control or finishing positions without causing injuries. In this sense, two of the safest and least damaging submissions are the Mata leon and Kata gatame. Differences with respect to other martial arts that do not use punches, such as Judo or Olympic wrestling (in Free and Greco-Roman variants). The fundamental difference is that in this type of sports, the main goal is getting a takedown and keep the opponent pinned, while In Brazilian jiu jitsu a takedown and a pin doesn't secures the win, and you can even get ...

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu History Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a martial art, combat sport and self-defense system that focuses on grappling, especially on the ground although competition fights begin with athletes standing. Brazilian Jiu Jitsu was developed during the 1920s when Mitsuyo Maeda taught Luis Franca and Carlos Gracie the ground techniques of Judo known as Ne Waza . Maeda had gone to live in Brazil after traveling the world spreading Judo. It is said that he had trained Sumo when he was young and that he became a student of Jigoro Kano after knowing about  the successes of Judo. On his trips he made demonstrations and accepted challenges from wrestlers, boxers, practitioners of Savate and other martial arts. He arrived in Brazil in 1914. It is said that Carlos Gracie, the eldest of Gastão Gracie's sons, saw a demonstration by Maeda at the Teatro Da Paz and decided to learn Judo. Maeda accepted him as a student and Carlos learned the master's techniques for a few years, then pas...

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. So...

The black belt is the goal of many of the people who start the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu journey but unfortunately it is said that only one in 1000 achieve it. Many factors are involved in this process, ranging from motivational factors to life changes that occur during the 10 years it takes normally to earn a black belt. In this article we want to offer our points of view on some of the most important conditions to complete the path and on the requirements to access this precious moment. About the conditions: Staying in training for ten years on a regular basis, overcoming injuries, illnesses, family and work events is something really difficult and requires a very important passion and determination. That is why in many cases any of these factors end up causing the abandonment of jiu jitsu. From our point of view it takes a great passion for learning and for jiu jitsu itself to overcome the obstacles and difficulties that arise during that time. Most of the people who start the practice of...

Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and types of training to progress faster: When we start learning Brazilian jiu jitsu we feel a big gap between what we have been taught in class and the possibility of using those techniques during sparring. It is true that starting with some kind of Fundamentals Program helps to minimize this feeling and frustration but it does not reduce it completely. This is due to the large number of areas that make up the Brazilian jiu jitsu game and the difficulty of being able to quickly learn all the techniques and resources necessary to fight efficiently. The reality is that in the first few months we spent a lot of time in disadvantageous positions, trying to escape from them and defending the opponent's attacks. One thing that will help you get through this phase of initial frustration and lag is to understand that there are different types of training  and that each will help you in a different way.   Understanding that they are all useful and that it is best ...
