An introduction to the positions of brazilian jiu-jitsu
In this course, we will be going through the basic positions of brazilian Jiu Jitsu. When you are just starting brazilian jiu jitsu it can be quite confusing what to do and not to do in certain positions. I will show you the basic DO's and DON'Ts of each position either if you are on top or at bottom.
Learning the fundamental mindset in each position of brazilian jiu jitsu can make a change in how you approach training and how quickly you learn new techniques. It will make you feel more confident in trying new techniques, because your fundamentals can help you getting out of an uncomfortable place.
The positions we will be covering are:
Closed guard
Open guard
Half guard
Side control
Mount
Back control
This is the common positional hierarchy in brazilian jiu jitsu. There are more positions when you get more experienced over time, but those can quickly end up confusing you more than helping you. So let this be your guideline where to go from each position, either if you are offensive or defensive.
This will provide you with enough knowledge to feel comfortable either going to your first class or if you just started brazilian jiu jitsu. It will be more beneficial to have a friend or loved one that you can practice with, but watching the basics alone can still provide great help when you end up grappling next time.
