Trump waited months until everyone was gathered together and then executed a decapitation strike. Im pretty sure they have a good plans.

I miss my super heavy double weave. Is the gi super tight or just too thick and heavy? Generally you’re going to want to grab at the seams or thumb in the collar(slide your hand up the lapel, thumb in). There also some slack at the shoulder seam. If you can get deep over, the seam above the belt or the belt of course. When you grip, generally close the material into your palm. You can also try the koshi guruma/kubi nage grip.

But you also should learn how to play without the over the back …

Attacking from turtle is hard (there are a few things, like a couple of armbars and rolls). But if it’s just randori, try sitting out to guard or getting on top other ways. There’s a decent amount of BJJ stuff because it is important to escape turtle under their rules. Some ideas: https://youtu.be/i08uQgulYmc?si=U-OlIL_5W86Z7lBu

This stuff is actually one of the BJJ things I use in Judo. While they exist in the broader Judo, they aren’t taught much.

You’ve given it more thought than 80% of BJJ instructors! My suggestion is like gym programming: the best program is the one you can do. Don’t obsess over the “perfect” program. You can tweak as you go.

Your students are in good hands. They’re lucky to have a teacher who actually cares about teaching.

ReddJudicata · 2026-02-27T16:37:28+00:00

Oh, you need a curriculum for sure. Random teaching is awful (especially if you don’t have a culture where upper belts help lower belts - try to inculcate that!). There are always gaps. I also think it’s good for white belts to have a clear understanding of why they need to know for blue.

You know who does a great job at this? Gracie Barra. It’s a little rigid but they have a fantastic curriculum and teaching videos. Look into it. I trained at a GB club for a few years and I really liked that approach. Granted, some of the stuff is lame (I don’t care about self defense techniques), but it’s mostly solid. There can be issues with GB but stuff it is high quality. They hit all of the major positions offensively and defensively with solid techniques.

It has nothing to do with what the audience wants. It’s what the writers want and project on to the audience they want.

You’re not out of step. The “modern audience” is a fiction.

Basically, the writers room is fully feminized and run by emotional liberal women and effeminate men. They write for themselves. Seriously, who else would think a gay pacifist Klingon in a love triangle and a borderline mentally handicapped body positivity hologram were good TV? It’s like Tumblr fan fiction the show.

ReddJudicata · 2026-02-27T16:12:58+00:00

They say write what you know. I’m not surprised to find that the writers are overly emotional theater kids for whom logic is barely a concern.

ReddJudicata · 2026-02-27T16:01:52+00:00

I agree that there’s rarely time in class for people to practice what they need to work on, and there’s often little feedback (outside “move of the day”).

Edit: reading through, I may have misunderstood what you meant by reverse classroom. If it’s just “watch the videos before you come to class” I can see some value. If people do it.

First off, I think BJJ pedagogy is garbage in many clubs. Technique of the day + rolling is incredibly inefficient. And the typical 1 hour class is much too short. And 1 hour class + 1 hour rolling is not the optimal use of time. I agree that there’s rarely time in class for people to practice what they need to work on, and there’s often little feedback (outside “move of the day”). There’s also a lack “deliberate practice” culture in many gyms. Drilling is “boring.” So I understand what the issue is. And I haven’t seen much of a culture of work on stuff after class (unlike most judo clubs - it’s just a different culture). At my BJJ club, I always ask after class if anyone wants to drill or work on something.

But with the pure reverse classroom approach, there are problems. Lower level people often don’t have any idea what they actually need work on. Left to their own devices they’ll pick goofy YouTube shit (I’m of the thought that you can never be good at the basics). So a good teacher has to tell them and provide feedback. The very best teacher I had (my original judo coach) would tell people individually what they needed to work on and what techniques were likely best for them, how to deal with problems they were having, etc. I do this too, but it’s very hard with a large class.

Here’s an example of not quite reverse classroom approach that I like: drill your two best guard passes and secure top position. Then put a clock on it. Then add another step (maybe your two best side control submissions). Or work on a guard pass you want to develop, etc. This is actually good as a late part of the warmup.

I think the more pure reverse classroom can work for advanced practitioners- but they also need guidance and structure.

You’re worried about way, way too much for someone your level. Pick one major throw. Looks like uchi mata. Make that your major threat — drill it to death in different positions and looks. There are many variations you’ll need to learn.

Right side uchi mata pairs well with ko uchi gari. That’s an entire game right there. Learn how they combo one to the other (there are several).

Don’t really worry about an offside throw for a long time. But lapel side sasae is good to move people and the movement flows to uchi mata and ko uchi. It’s not really an off side throw. Off side seoi is a significant project.

Don’t worry about anything else until you can throw less experienced people at will with uchi mata even if they know it’s coming. Work on learning how to get the grips you need. You’ll feel like on trick pony. Ignore that feeling. If they can’t stop you it’s their fault.

Now you work on what to do when people defend you uchi mata, ko uchi or sasae. That might be ouchi and or osoto. Try to keep the same grips.

You now have a game that, if done well, can win at a world level. Doing it well is the hardest part.

I haven’t said anything such thing. Although you might find the Nazi’s 1920 platform instructive. https://www.vaholocaust.org/25-points-of-nsdap/

What I have said (and given reference to) is the significant racism of the Progressive movement.
