In today’s video I show a simple takedown for BJJ I’ve used several times in Jiu-jitsu competitions and plenty of times during rolls in the gym. The takedown is also relatively safe as it doesn’t require you to drop to your knee. I know this is something that worries many Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practitioners who aren’t […]
Today’s video is a short Q&A video from Origin’s BJJ Immersion Camp in Maine. During the sessions this week I got a chance to speak with hundreds of Brazilian Jiu-jitsu practitioners who watch the videos, listen to the podcasts and so on. If you’re one of them, it was cool meeting you! A couple of […]
Recently I got a question from a young guy who said he let his BJJ coach down. He said that this last he’s been competing in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and winning tons of gold medals. He said recently, he was getting ready for a competition, one of the biggest ones in the country and leading up […]

Today we have a question from Nathan, who sends me an email, and asked: “Chewy what is the worst screw job you’ve seen in a Brazilian jiu-jitsu competition.” Well, after training BJJ for so long and watching so many matches, you might be surprised that I have seen a ton of “screw jobs”. BJJ competitions […]
Today’s video comes from a guy, who we will call Bob, that has been training for a little over a year and says he really enjoys BJJ, even stating that it’s really helped him with some mental issues. Fortunately, or unfortunately, Brazilian Jiu-jitsu also opened him up to aversity that he wasn’t used to. For […]
In today’s video I’ll be reviewing a couple options to defend the double stack pass. One of my guys was having trouble defending it today in class, so I thought I’d share what we discussed here too. This is a pretty common pass in Brazilian Jiu-jitsu, both Gi and No-Gi. In fact, it’s also one […]
A few weeks ago, I mentioned that I had an issue where I had to take some time off BJJ and had to go to the Emergency room because of that health issue. Well, today was my very first training session back in about a month and I could feel it. If you’re older and […]

Sadly, what happen to John will, at some point or another, happen to every Brazilian Jiu-jitsu competitor. I know it’s happened to me plenty of times. And if you’re not ready for the […]
