  • Here is a way I have found helpful in explaining and illustrating some basic guard types to students. There are so many guards and ways to use them in Jiu-Jitsu that I can't even imagine how long a comprehensive list would take. But this video outlines some very common ones that I think practitioners should familiarize themselves with.
    For more detailed instruction on the use of these and lots of other stuff, check out Patreon.com/KnightJiuJitsu. I really appreciate the support!

    This is extremely helpful for us as white belts. Because we can grasp the overall picture and be introduced to the key concept of transitions between positions. I believe there is a room for drilling exercises, but isolated techniques teaching should be inserted in a context of a overall picture as you are showing us here. In this respect I like very much the teachings of draculinho, John Will, Chew jitsu, Kamajiu jitsu, Pritt Mikhelson, Wim Deputer, Chris Haüter, Matt Thomton, Fihras Zahibi, John Danaher, and so many more, who provide us with some context.

    • @KnightJiuJitsu
      @KnightJiuJitsu  3 роки тому +3

      Yes, the guard is the only position where you can be on bottom and still be considered in the dominant position.

    Excuse my obliviousness but what does the blue bar on the black belt mean?

    • @KnightJiuJitsu
      @KnightJiuJitsu  6 років тому +1

      No worries. The blue bar denotes black belts under Royce Gracie or the Valente Brothers. They adopted the blue bar in place of the red a few years ago. I’m a first degree black belt under Royce.
