When you go to make contact with an opponent it helps a lot to have a clear sense of purpose. You have a sketch in your mind of what you want to do and how you will do it. However, the reality of any combat sport is that chaos can break out any second and in a moment all your fine plans can go to hell and you will have to immediately adapt second by second to circumstances you never anticipated. This means that within you must cultivate two mindsets. One of the tactician/technician when things go well, the other…

You will rarely ever feel you’re making significant progress in this game: You are in a sport where you train alongside everyone else in a room where you all learn the same techniques and strategies and employ the same training methods. The direct implication of this is that you will all progress at roughly the same rate over time. This means you can go for considerable periods of time feeling like you’re not getting any better at all. Don’t be dismayed by this. It is a natural consequence of working in a room together. Have faith that it’s well nigh…

When submission and position become one: Jiu jitsu is usually understood in terms of two elements

When submission and position become one: Jiu jitsu is usually understood in terms of two elements - position and submission - and in most cases position comes first. Quite often athletes tend to specialize in one over the other. Some are predominantly positional players who win by points: others are submission hunters who win via submission and sometimes even have disdain for positional scores. The situation that unifies those two elements is the rear mount. It is the highest scoring position in the sport (tied with mount) and the at the same time the launchpad for the number one submission…

It’s much easier to refine an existing move than learn a new one: when it’s time to make fast progress we usually think in terms of learning new moves. The fastest improvements however, usually come from improvements to moves you already employ. The difference between the successful execution of a move and an unsuccessful one is often very small - so just a few extra details or additions can make a substantial difference to your performance. Due to the fact that you’re already familiar with the move, these additions are usually easy to make. Starting from scratch with an entirely…

Have a clear sense of what you want to accomplish next as you grapple. If you’re in a bad position, you need an eye for what the first action required for your escape must be. If you’re in a good position you’ll need a sense for the first action required to start an offensive chain that can break through your opponents defenses. If you’re in a neutral position you’ll need to identify a viable first action that can set up an entry into offense. Remember - everything starts with a small first step - but until that first step is…
