| The Everyday Jiu Jitsu Podcast Ep 61: Kuzushi | 19 Jun 2024 | 00:47:57 | |
Kuzushi is one of the most crucial principles in grappling (and in fighting). This principle was popularized by Jigoro Kano, the founder of Kodokan Judo. Kano was a firm believer that if you want to effectively attack your opponent with techniques, you must first attack their stance. The idea of Kuzushi is to first break your opponent’s body positioning, and then attack within this short window of vulnerability before they can recover a strong defensive positioning. In this episode, I discuss what a broken stance looks like, how to attack someone’s stance from different positions, and how you can better train this skill. | |||

| The Everyday Jiu-Jitsu Podcast Ep 49: Refereeing For Beginners | 27 Mar 2024 | 00:45:46 | |
In this episode, I discuss refereeing for beginners. Learning how to ref is a very good way to gain a better understanding of the game, as well as becoming a more effective coach and competitor. The role of the referee is incredibly important in Jiu-Jitsu competition, and should absolutely be done to the best of one’s ability. This position requires knowledge, humility, patience, stress management, and the ref’s undivided attention. The referee should never steal the show in a grappling match; a competition is about the expression of the two athletes competing against each other. However, one mistake on the part of the referee can completely change the outcome of a match. I discuss my reasons for being a referee, refereeing kid’s matches, fairness of outcome, tips, and tricks, and becoming the ref that every competitor wants calling their matches. Enjoy! | |||
| The Everyday Jiu Jitsu Podcast Ep 48: Mentoring a Mentor | 20 Mar 2024 | 01:11:24 | |
This week I talk about developing potential instructors and mentors in Jiu Jitsu. I love this topic because I believe one of my main goals as a BJJ coach is to develop not only competent Jiu-Jitsu players but effective mentors (who can also create effective mentors) as well. I discuss identifying these special individuals in the room, ways you can support them through their journey, helping them navigate through potential obstacles, imposter syndrome, and creating a fun gym culture that fosters growth. Excelling in any skill often requires the support and guidance of a great mentor, and our sport is no different. This is a special position that shouldn’t be taken lightly, and can really positively impact someone’s life. | |||
| The Everyday Jiu Jitsu Podcast Ep 47: Donkey: The New Guard | 06 Mar 2024 | 00:50:18 | |
This week is all about the Donkey Guard! This position has recently gained popularity in the current BJJ landscape, but it has actually been around for many years. One thing I absolutely hate in Jiu Jitsu is when my opponent knows more than me, especially in a position or a system that I have completely failed to address! Therefore, it was absolutely critical that I learned the power of this underappreciated position. The Donkey Guard is simple to use and very effective. You can use it to sweep and submit your opponent under many rule sets. It is also an asymmetrical position in that you have the ability to attack your opponent and they do not have the ability to attack you. Furthermore, I was shocked at how seamlessly the Donkey Guard fit into my pre-existing game. I hope in a short amount of time, you can smash your training partners and opponents with the reverse cow girl… I mean, reverse closed (donkey) guard. | |||

I discuss how to recognize signs of burning out, how to maintain your love and passion for the sport of Jiu Jitsu, the 3 pillars of health, seeking inspiration, and being grateful. Jiu-Jitsu is a marathon, not a sprint; embrace the process and enjoy the journey! | |||

Great achievers throughout history almost always had incredible confidence, and great competitive martial artists are no different. Confidence is one of the most important pieces to a champion’s mindset. But how do we develop confidence and be able to use it when it really counts in competition?

| The Everyday Jiu Jitsu Podcast Ep 19: Make Outside Ashi Great Again | 16 Aug 2023 | 00:59:32 | |
Outside ashi garami is often misunderstood and underappreciated in the leg entanglement hierarchy. It is fair to say that most leg lockers prefer positions like the saddle and even 5050 over outside ashi garami because they can access the inside heel hook, but no leg locker will reach their full potential without a strong outside ashi garami. Learn some of my favourite details and insights of this great position.
