I agree with a lot of what you’re saying here. Beginners and people at higher risk of injury probably shouldn’t be doing live takedowns, or at least it should have some constraints on what they’re doing. However it’s not my position that everyone should do takedowns all the time. If takedowns can’t be practiced safely, like in the situations that you mentioned. Then players should begin from a bottom position. Because, in a situation where you Jiu Jitsu is needed, if you don’t know takedowns, you will be beginning from the bottom. In terms of starting from the knees isolating specific skills. It really doesn’t. It isolates similar concepts but they’re utilized differently. Off balancing someone is entirely different on their knees, because they’re stance is square instead of more bladed like a grappling stance. The Grip fighting does transfers to standing position so that is one thing that is a good take away from knee wrestling. But sprawling and shooting are completely different. The timing and distance is completely different. And the high percentage techniques are (mostly) different. I think we’re on the same page on a lot of things. Takedowns are only one stage of the journey as you said, and not all players can practice them safely. I only disagree on what should be done in the absence of takedowns. But even there I think we both see the use of positional sparring. I appreciate you’re input and your opinion!

@prismjiujitsu I'm really impressed by your respectful and eloquent response. You raise great points, and I grinned, imagining people shooting when they start on their knees 😅. I definitely agree that there is tremendous value starting with positional rolling. Personally, I really find value in drilling from knees, especially with certain partners. I also enjoy starting standing with partners that are appropriate for that. However, I suspect that you're probably more skilled at bjj than me, and possibly more focused on optimizing your training to be competitive, and with that in mind, your position makes a lot of sense. I have a slightly unusual approach to bjj because I really love it, but also, it's not my primary martial art. I'm happy to enjoy learning it with my friends, a number of whom are older or dealing with chronic issues. Myself, I am careful with takedowns because of my history with extreme concussions, so our group prioritizes safety while enjoying training together. Thanks for the lovely discussion and the fantastic suggestion. Sorry for my tone in my original post. The respectful way you responded inspires me. Thanks 🙏☺️ May the Force be with you.

Thanks for watching 👊

…

This person gets it 👌😂

LMAO - I think that’s the official definition of BJJ in the Bible 😂

😂😬😬

@@prismjiujitsu lol

You the man bro 👊👊

@@prismjiujitsu 💪💪

It’s certainly not comfortable on the next but it’s definitely a chest compressor. This is a JJWL competition, they don’t allow neck cranks for white belts. He would of been DQed

He definitely is. That’s a strange accusation to make. Lol. You can hear me talk in the beginning and hear me in the background coaching him in the match.

He definitely is. Have seen him there before multiple times

😂😂

😂😂😂😂

He didn’t enter for the $20…

That’s true. Lol. But, still better than paying for the tourney and not winning any money back! Just a friendly wager for fun.

😂👊

Incorrect sir. The top players grip on you is reliant on using you chin as a handle and covering the back of your head with his chest or shoulder. Bringing your ear to the chest hides you chin from his grip and exposes the back, which lets you rotate out.

@@prismjiujitsu My point is that in the "Video" the guy literally let go

@@maverick9334 indeed he did. He’s an Uke. His job is to allow the instructor to demonstrate the technique so that students can see the offense. Could he have fought me, yes. But then this video would of been longer, and also more difficult to see what’s happening as we would of moved a lot more and potentially moved to where the camera angle wouldn’t allow anyone to see. and that would defeat the purpose of recording this video. Our aim here isn’t to record a live match, it’s to demonstrate one of the many possibilities that someone could use while in a live match.

nah it isn't. there are legit moves that work that high level black belts use to submit people he said not to do. the best and most obvious example is the last one. there are some guard passes that involve stacking in and grabbing the head like that inside guard that even rodger gracie uses.

Will do!

Thank you! 👊👊
