I've been doing this instinctively, but after watching this, I think I'll be able to make more conscious decision to keep my head down in other scenarios too. Thank you, Jon!

Have plenty more planned, gonna take a bit longer now since I’m putting more editing in but I think it’s better this way

Thanks Jon, these "little" changes are real game changers. Love it keep them coming!

Very helpful. So many guys at the gym have flexible guards.

Great videos! Thank you!

Another video that instantly makes sense man, thank you!

Love the content, keep it coming

Fantastic explanations here, Jon! And great footage to demonstrate what you're going over!

Awesome content as always. I really love this style of passing and using my head to flatten people out. A lot of my training partners have good retention and knee shields so this helps a lot

Thank you Jon! The way you break down these concepts helps me understand it so much better. Much appreciated!

Thank a lot buddy really appreciate it!

This video is amazing. Thank you for taking the time to explain how to pass the guard. Truly appreciate it

GOLD. The editing and voice over was top notch in this one. I caught glimpses that make me want to adjust the "half north-south" I use (side control, but north south arm positioning). Would love more on controlling side control and north south

Awesome technique. Thanks Jon! Knee cut is my go-to so it will be fun to add this in.

@JonThomasBJJ

Yeah knee cut is so fun especially been focusing on hard chest pressure when hitting it

I like the way you break the moves down. I have a fake hip and bad back from a childhood disease, so I'm not as mobile as some people, so anything I can do to create pressure is what I'm interested in. I'm 6'1 230 lbs, so I look for ways to utilize my size to slow the more athletic guys down.

Been working my pressure passing a lot the past few weeks so will do some more of that soon as well I think you will like it!

Excellent video Jon, really good details. Using the head to pin is certainly under utilised.

Actually wanted this one to be a bit longer but after finishing it just ended up being pretty short. Gonna make the next one a bit more in-depth with more sparring. Could easily add highlights at the end to lengthen and give more context

This will help, thank you.

@@JonThomasBJJ It went very well. I've only been at the gym since February, but I get to surprise my colleagues every time. I was able to attack them several times from the back with your trick, but I don't know any other holds after that. Your video with the fast learning I have watched several times, just where you wrote also (reason: I am 43). Thank you, God bless you richly!!!!!!!

Hey Jon, could you do a video on systematically breaking down BJJ for a beginner? I've just started training and it's pretty overwhelming with all the different names of techniques and positions flying around, when I haven't had them introduced to me. (I've watched most of your beginner videos.) I was hoping you could break it down almost like how you'd break down the stages of a chess game (an analogy I've heard you use before). Thanks

Great!

I forget what match it was but I remember the commentator saying the guy should have tried passing all the way to north south instead of just side control. I started using it when faced with someone with super Gumby legs.

@JonThomasBJJ

Yeah north south finish vs flexible guys can be super useful, I also like passing up center with stacks or chest drop folders or dlr side passes. Gonna do video on this soon

Hell yeah

I'd like to watch the attacks from turtle position. About 15 years ago, I saw the guy who attacks from the turtle. He goes to turtle by himself and waits for the opponent's attack, and he counter attack the opponent. He was black belt and he beated No.1 in our dojo and won the tornament. If you have time, please up attacks from the turtle position, not defence. Thank you
