      A brown belt where I used to train showed me the arm bar from mount and he showed it wrong. He told me to lean forward before bringing the leg over my opponents head, the way John shows it here is much better, I was losing my balance the way I was told before.

      He gets the physics behind it. He speaks so clear and scientific. This what you should focus on in grappling as a beginner how to get the most leverage in yoyr moves. No matter if its standing up in the clinch doing heavy wrestling or if its on the mat. It's all about efficiency and mindgames.

      @@comedyandjre You mean when you are in S mount? The key is to put all the weight on him and his far arm controlled too by pulling into you. At the same time your leg (from knee to foot) has to be perpendicular to his body in order to prevent his rolling and always with foot activated (the fingers' foot pushing into him). It's hard to explain only with words but I hope this helps.

    Attention to detail is one of the most important things a master does. My knowledge in grappling is very basic but I feel as if I'm watching a real master. I can only imagine the time it must've taken to discover all of this and how much trial and error. It was paid for in time (which is the most valuable thing we can spend), passion, and probably some pain. I just got this for free and without a rite of passage. I cannot help but to feel very grateful and will treat this knowledge with the utmost respect. The ones who take it for granted have never bled for their passion.
