Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Class Plan For August 2010 #BJJ

Here is the basic plan for the months BJJ classes. I will be creating videos to accompany the different techniques so that you can review them in your own time to allow you to learn them to an even better level. Please note, the warm ups last about 20-30min and are included on the plan as  they we go over function Brazilian Jiu Jitsu moves such as sprawl and butter fly sweeps - not just press up etc.

My aim is to provide all the students with as much information as possible in as many different formats, video, text and of course physical demonstration to help you all learn and improve as quickly as possible. Please let me know  if you would like information in any additional formats.

Have a great weekend.

BJJ Basics Video 2 - The Half Guard & What to wear to your first BJJ Class #BJJ

Good morning guys,

Hope you enjoyed yesterdays video on open and closed guard. In today's video I show you the half guard, which essentially means that your opponent has trapped one of your legs (Don't worry I will show you a neat trick to get out!).

Click here to watch the video: 

For the person on the bottom there is also lots of opportunity to attack, again we will go over this in the lessons how ever to get a head start type "half guard sweep" into you tube.

WHAT TO WEAR ON YOUR FIRST LESSON

A few have you have asked me about what clothing to wear for the BJJ class on Monday and if you have to buy a gi. All you need to wear is comfortable loose clothing that you don't mind rolling around in. We have a special relationship with our friends at Tatami Fightwear (www.tatamifightwear.com) which means we can get a substantial discount for you on their products. I will be bringing my Gis for you to try on, all you need to do is let me know if you want me to order one for you.

As always, if you have any questions give me a shout.

Cheers

Enzo
