There is Atos in Honolulu, and the Mendes Bros are there often. Island Jiu-Jitsu.

Precise teaching..

iv been doing the leg weave for years.... finaly made it to the big leagues..

Small details are awesome. Now I know that I shld pass by the SHIN .kkkk Oss thanks rafa.

+darren tay Nothing really changes except your right hand now cups his thigh instead of grabbing the pants. Also, your left hand would have to 1) grab behind his neck if possible or 2) settle for a weaker/less efficient grip on his arms or armpit. Like Rafa says, the best grip is his collar, but without gi you will have to make due and attempt without it. The lack of collar grip may make the second technique more useful in no-gi. Try it out and see if it works.

Really interesting looking academy

wow the place looks amazing soooo clean n ya it does look like bjj in heaven

Nice teaching

I just might, but the free techniques are always greatly appreciated by me.

very good....I train with you anytime...I can see safe training...

oh hell yea I'm going to practice this until I get it. People always knee shield me

Great.

So many little technical points contained within this one video, spoken from one of the world's best technicians.

This is a question for anyone who trains at this academy. In this video, Rafa displays two techniques at are based on the same position (defensive hg). On a typical day, would these two techniques be the two techniques that are worked on throughout practice? Or does he show more techniques (4 or more)? Please understand that I am not criticizing anything. I'm simply interested in their format. Personally, I think it would be awesome two work on these two techniques for the day

nice ambiance that gym

This is called weave pass Ossss

Muy bueno 😊

🔥🔥🔥

His BJJ is definitely better than his drawing.

Nice details. This is the third version I have seen in a week. The other two in class did not attack the collar w/ the L hand, but used the L hand to help collapse the opponent's L knee. I will try this variation.

Interesting. You do need the knee somewhat collapsed for a lot of knee wall passing but your arm isn't strong enough on its own most of the time, so here he uses shoulder/chest, which is what everyone should be doing, but I don't think the two variations are exclusive of each other :)

After collapsing the knee, you still require the left hand collar grip

made the mistake to not underhook on a knee slice and I jacked my finger up. I was dumb to try to do it in open guard but somehow it was easier

good technique! Osss

Nice gym!

Sounds good; however, once you pass over to the other side (2nd technique) how do you get to side control? I don't feel it was completely explained.

Looks easy when Rafa is doing it. Will have to see if I can make the movements required to get the knee out and then walk his hips around. Suspect it takes more skill in low movement than I have as a two month white belt.

I think for a lot of us, Heaven is a massive BJJ gym in the sky where Rafael Mendes is the teacher! XD

i believe this IS bjj heaven

3:54 ouch.. Nutsack snag

this is a beast pass..

I would love to train here

How do we set this up in no gi?

Great technique

What if the guy reacts and grabs your wrist (the one between the legs, grabbing the pants), pulls it to him and turns his hips, sweeping you over his legs? I understand you have to advance before that happens, or let it go, right?

Are you vulnerable to the lasso?

A quand peut-on avoir les sous-titres merci

is it just me or does anyone else's eyes hurt just looking at how white everything is?

lol!! Yessssssss!

fica meio difícil de ver a posição se não fizer pelo menos uma vez ela completa.

Oss.

Ossssss.

anyone know how to adapt this for no gi?

More techniques please.

Nope, those are marks from skateboard wheels turning on a quarterpipe with paint on the end. I believe it was done by Christian Hosoi.

Why not simply use windshield wiper on first one?

kk is true

Is Rafael Mendes related to Khabib Nurgamedov? ''Smesh''

Maybe they are. Honestly, after an hour rolling at that academy, I can't help but wonder whether or not you start to think you've died and gone to heaven.

3:30

"use the collar. you are not like a just grabbing here for fun."

between of his legs? I give him credit for mastering 2 languages, allmost.

beacuse it's called Art of Jiu JItsu.

It looks like they're doing bjj in heaven

43 people got knee sliced.

what else do you do in heaven??

My partner tight his thighs so hard I can't even put my knee on his thigh. So I can't slide my knee on his shin.
