Brazillian Jiu Jitsu Techniques
09/21/2022
Yeah, people have been asking so here's the story. Gordon Ryan called me last week and said "I feel good about the jiu jitsu, but my look needs some help... I want it to ask more questions than it answers... except for "sexy?", and the answer needs to be a seizure-inducing aroma."
And I said, "are you near a fax machine".
For my friends and teammates competing soon in the Pan Ams, here's a new technique you should prepare yourselves to see out there on the mats. Based on early feedback from the Ib Jif, it's looking like this might be the first 8-point position, so if you're allergic to podiums or victory, DO NOT watch this video!

My first instructor, Robin Gieseler, bringing BJJ into the national spotlight with Presidential handshake defense. This proves he's also better at "RTDR" jiu-jitsu. Robin owns Relson Gracie BJJ Academy in Westerville, OH for any of you passing through the midwest.
Martial arts academy posts how-to video on defending against Trump handshake "As I’m scrolling through my Facebook feed I see this video and it hits me. I’ve got to teach the defense against the Donald Trump handshake."
Yoga for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Is something different than this.
Calling out bad training partners after a selfish uke ruined my belt test videos.
OK, so it's been awhile since we last Righted the Wrong Techniques. We could spend this time pointing fingers and assigning blame, or we could agree that we all made some mistakes and move on. I hope this technique helps you defend yourselves against one of the most sadistic mind-games you'll encounter on any mat: the Buzzer Be**er. Thanks to Tom Feister for bringing this technique to my attention repeatedly, and Relson Gracie Jiu-Jitsu Academy - Columbus for letting me pull this footage out of their mat-cam archives.
Responding to some viewer mail.
Well, it turns out I need to issue a bit of a retraction related to some recent RTDR news. My apologies for the confusion. To be honest, though, I'm still like 104% pumped.
I AM SUPER PUMPED!
An answer to a question I've not been asked by the ladies, maybe hundreds of times.
A fight night for the ladies! Our first DLDO (Dirt Lip Do Over) for all future Rousey challengers!
