 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 movements in brazilian jiu jitsu There are a lot of movements that are very important in brazilian jiu jitsu and that may be considered foundations for techniques and transitions. So we work regularly on these movements  doing drills, these are the ones we consider more relevant: Backward fall break: http://bluebeltuniversity.blogspot.com.es/2017/12/caida-hacia-atras.html Side Fall break: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wFL3vYVXvHY Front fall break: http://bluebeltuniversity.blogspot.com.es/2017/12/caida-hacia-adelante.html https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CLBeDR6kcM Video with the three :  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5n_Qjeia2n8 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwmy9NU_DEw&feature=emb_rel_end Shrimp:   http://bluebeltuniversity.blogspot.com.es/2017/12/la-gamba-en-brazilian-jiu-jitsu.html Reverse Shrimp: http://bluebeltuniversity.blogspot.com.es/2017/12/gamba-invetida.html Shrimp and going to fours: http://bluebeltuniversity.blogspot.com.es/20...

About the positional hierarchy and the positional transitions in the brazilian jiu jitsu game As we said before Brazilian jiu jitsu is fundamentally a game of transition of positions Below I leave two images that illustrate some of the most frequent position changes in a Brazilian jiu jitsu fight.   As seen in this image, the continuum of positions goes from being in the best, behind the opponent's back, to the worst when it is he who is behind our back. This other graphics describes some of the most common positional changes that usually occur during the sparring Fundamental transitions in Brazilian jiu jitsu:  

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.  

About Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Self Defense The application of Brazilian jitsu in the context of self-defense is subject to many debates and points of view, we share ours here and it is what we transmit and expect from our students. First of all, we consider that Brazilian jiu jitsu is a personal defense system for situations of aggression by an attacker without weapons. We think that bjj  should always be applied as a defense and not as a form of aggression. The fundamental objective will always be to defend ourselves and control an attacker, producing the least injuries. For this reason, we will avoid punches, kicks and joint locks as much as possible, and we will seek to obtain positions of absolute control of the attacker so that he cannot attack us by hitting, kicking or other means. We must avoid dangerous projections that can cause serious injuries and even death to the attacker and look for takedowns that allow us to fall on top of the opponent, preferably in the mount, gain...

About how the fights begin in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu The fights in brazilian jiu jitsu (in sparring and in competition) begin standing, although in some gyms and circumstances people decide to pull guard quickly or go to seated guard while training. You should know that in competition you are not allowed to pull guard without any grip. That is why we highly recommend starting every fight standing even at gym sparring. This will help you get accustomed to always begin standing, defending the takedowns, guard pulls or working yourself in these areas.  

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...

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 ...
