BJJ Fanatics was started by a pair of black belts (Bernardo Faria & Michael Zenga) who feel that nothing is more important than improving your BJJ skills as much as possible in the least amount of time. Their aim was to create a shop for BJJ Students who don’t look at BJJ as a sport – but as a lifestyle.

Wrestling 101. Nice description of a traditional spiral ride. Couple of points:
Body lock high in the armpits to gain more control of the shoulders
If the do Granby with a lower waist lock, roll with it to a Crab Ride.

Super happy to see high level Bjj players finally incorporate more classic wrestling moves for ground control

I have been building a basic curriculum for LEOs and I chose the spiral ride instead of typical hooks anytime Uke points his hips at the ground. Seeing it accepted and working against people at such a high level of grappling is pretty affirming. Awesome stuff.

I'm loving these new concepts for traditional positions. Definitely will incorporate these into my game.

[tadz]

This is what I love about this game. Always new things to learn.

I will definitely be adding this option to my turtle attack. Keeping people on the ground should be emphasized more for jiu jitsu. This is where I have been watching alot more wrestling techniques.

Someone's been paying attention to their folkstyle wrestling

I love how grapplers are adding wrestling controls to their arsenals. Hope someday we get rid of butt-scooters all together. It's not Catch wrestling yet, but we're getting there. 👍

Craig, love that you teaching wrestling basics to the masses, but you gotta get the names right if you gonna teach wrestling.

1) That thigh grip is not called Spiral Ride, it's a Thigh Pry. Spiral Ride is the name of the breakdown itself, which can happen with plethora of different grips.

2) That wrist control from back is called Wrist Ride (not Dagestani Handcuffs, LoL. To be frank, any reference to young MMA fighters just make you look like you've just discovered Wrist Riding recently. 😅 (That's like calling a Jab "the Usman punch". 🤣)
