Thanks Ryan. This message is akin to a Sunday sermon. Gold!

Thank you for the honest discussion of training for self-defense vs. competition. This is true of all martial arts training, not just BJJ.

boy that real fight situation drill looks fun... =)

Also how do you all feel about no gi bjj?
Both 10th planet and mma oriented bjj?
I personally want to train no gi. But not sport no gi, mma and self defense no gi.

Hi Ryan, you mentioned being 51 in this video and I’m sure you’ve been learning jiu jitsu for years, but do you have any advice for a 63-year-old who wants to start training? I’m not exactly in shape, but I’m not exactly a total slug, either. Is there a place for us retirees who want to begin training jiu jitsu?

Holly sh1t. This is an amazing video.

Ryan, can people learn Gracie Jiu Jitsu or BJJ if their underweight, anorexic or extremely weak?

[rye-bread]

My only issue with "self defense martial arts" that focus 100% on self defense and no sport or competition aspect is a neglect of reality and pressure.

You aren't going to be able to handle a dude with a knife. You either train with a gun and draw, or run. Most martial arts don't even consider gun training.

Which are vastly superior for self protection than bjj. Sorry that's just the truth. 2 months of gun training puts a woman on par with a man with 70lbs on her. Whereas bjj is the best martial art for her but against that. Yeah right.

Hi ryan, i switched recently from bjj to judo since my former bjj school only did competition based techniques however my now judo school doesnt do alot of randori its more focused on making every move perfect. so how important do you think sparring really is?
