2 Minute Jiu Jitsu Ep.15: Shaolin Arm Bar Drill

By Leave a Comment

Occasionally, you find a technique or drill that opens your eyes to the beauty and possibilities of Jiu Jitsu; the Shaolin Arm Bar Drill is one of those for me.

The Shaolin Arm Bar (named after Vitor ‘Shaolin’ Ribeiro) is a counter to the most effective arm bar defence but it works so well because it uses your opponent’s position against them. On top of that, if your opponent has never seen the technique before, they’ll think you’re a magician.

You can learn the Shaolin Arm Bar in Episode 15 of 2 Minute Jiu Jitsu. Enjoy.

The Shoulder Ripper

By Leave a Comment

The Shoulder Ripper is my favourite way to counter the most common defence to the armbar.

The beautiful thing about this technique is it requires very little grip adjustments so you stay locked in the arm bar position, yet it’s still a very high percentage way to break your opponent grip.

Check it out in this video:

WARNING!

I call it the shoulder ripper because I literally ripped someone’s shoulder from their pec using the technique. So please BE CAREFUL and protect your training partners when using this technique.

Arm Bar From Side Control

By Leave a Comment

For a long time, I’ve had the dream of opening a full-time Jiu Jitsu Academy. However, due to a mix of circumstances that idea got put on the back burner, and honestly, at one point I thought it might never happen.

Well, yesterday, that dream became a reality, and I opened my new Jiu Jitsu Academy (hopefully the first of many). Although it’s not 100% finished it already looks amazing and will be an incredible place for people to train.

Anyway, as part of the opening, I taught a seminar covering some of my favourite attacks from side control.  And I want to share one of those with you now.  It’s one of the ways I attack the armbar from side control and three ways I counter my opponents defence. Check it out below:

You’ll also get to see a little of what my new gym looks like.
