@@KnightJiuJitsu - Thanks for the interesting lessons :) I always wondered why the movie ninja never had these grappling and wrestling type skills.

I am starting BJJ at my fiance's gym. His best friend is the instructor and he's amazing. Before I started I had to tell him that I was attacked by a male coworker and assaulted, violently, several years ago. I had zero ground game because I didn't know anything to defend myself with. Just kicked as hard as I could until he pulled a knife on me to make me be still. My coach is gently training me, only having me roll with girls for now. The last mount, the high one, makes me panic if I get stuck in it. THANK YOU for these. I won't forget them and it will help me get through class without a full-blown PTSD experience. Gratitude, sir.

@@kimuralove1096 if you cant get guard, you can place foot to knee or hip and push. This can cause your opponent to fall to one side and make it easier to roll himover or shrimp over from the opposite side. Regarding knees on shoulders. Bad situation. However if you can move before full weight placed, shrimp under him and out the back while reaching under and lifting up on his foot for leverage and help to unbalance. Work on shrimping for better positions . If you can, find a good BJJ school or a Judo school that teaches the Kosen or Newaza groundfighting ( unfortunately may be hard to find). Good luck!

Nude Jiu Jitsu.

Before u tube people learned the hard way and now we take advantage of using this valuable training of others years of hard work. This channel is real technical knowledge. Im a white belt and this training is saving me on the mats. The upper belts enjoy white belts because that tap means success. I don't worry about tapping my main goal is just passing the guard. This stuff works. I support this channel because years of hard work is mine when i have an extra 10 min. to press a button and train. I save so much money in gas and time. Its cheap insurance for survival. If your a white belt you can't afford not to.

The technique at 6:20 is called a Scorpion and it is effective if you're flexible. I've done it a few times in both gi and no-gi. I learned it on this video, thank you Knight JiuJitsu!

I'm a complete beginner...week three. Been watching videos to try to become more comfortable with the terminology and follow through of the basics we've been learning. I really appreciate this video. It's clear, in both word and action which helps me SO much. Now I just need a few hundred hours on the mats! 😆

I'm a white belt. My brown belt coach, great guy, loves to mount me into an arm bar. I know as soon as he sees I can defend out of mount, he will get me some other way, but we gotta start somewhere. Thanks for the video. I needed it.

This tutorial just made my bottom escapes so much better!!! Night and day difference! Thank you!

I’m two weeks in and these escapes comes in clutch. People think I’ve been doing BJJ longer but I’m glued to these videos.

Great explanation! I’ve experienced all that on the mats except the last one. I love it when an experienced BJJ guy shows real stuff not just basic 101, etc

Your escapes are great. I always feel that I have no plan when I’m in the bottom, but I’ll try your steps. The variety of escapes will give me more confidence to get me out. Again, thank you 🙏🏾🇨🇦

Tracing the arm back after a failed clamp to the chest... What a great move! Thanks for sharing these techniques, and for yet another informative, articulate video.

Exactly what I’ve been needing! It’s awesome that he goes through so many different scenarios too. Thanks man!

Love it! I saw this a while back and thought they looked interesting, but didn’t know how to successfully train/apply them yet. Now I think I understand enough that I can start training for these contingencies and looking for them in live rolls. Maybe in a couple more years, I’ll see this again and understand in yet a whole new way. 🙌

I needed this. I always get stuck in mount and have no way that but the bridge escape. Now I will practice these. Thank you!

I was in a fight on the receiving end of a full mount once! After the blows started raining down I some how got out of it, but I swore never again. Thanks for the video. I look forward to covering this in BJJ class.

Steven thanks for this video, I know it has been out for a while but 5 months ago I took my first class and it was a huge help! I watched it over and over, not fully understanding everything going on except the message you were trying to get across. Ever since I watch this video once per month and each time as my understanding grows I'm seeing things I didn't before and there so much valuable info here. Just watched it again today and so many little things I get now and I know I'm just getting started. Again thanks, your video gave me some tools and confidence to survive my first 5 months. FYI I (someone else commented on the same thing) love the slow mo breakdown, makes my life so much easier!

I’m super new only been training a month or so and find myself always in the mounted position can’t wait to try these thanks for the video!

OMG THIS IS SUCH A LIFE SAVER, TEHSE PEOPLE WHO ARE WAY HEAVIER THEN ME ARE ALWAYS GETTING ME IN MOUNTS. THANKYOU!

Great video man, I already knew 3 or 4 of these but always good to see them again to refresh and to add on. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Thank you so much this will help me in grappling so much. Thank you for showing this to everyone in the world and me.

I know I might be overdoing it but that's one of the coolest things about BJJ is that you guys literally go over ever scenario. Much respect and I'll definitely be checking your videos out more!

TKD simply doesn’t have the best answers for ground positions, submissions and transitions. And that is perfectly ok. Because I guarantee that I am going to look beyond BJJ if I want to see the best way to perform better kicks. I always admire people willing to recognize the possible limitations of their styles and be honest about it.
