White Belt - The Path to Stripe #3-4
The complete library of basic techniques for the beginner White Belt. Learn the fundamental positions of jiu-jitsu - mount, side control, back, half guard and closed guard - how to defend in those positions and a few simple attacks!
In these video classes process the student will round out the core ground techniques of Jiu-jitsu with again and emphasis of the techniques and leverage points that will contribute to future more advanced techniques. Positionally, students will have a clear understanding of what the core positional hierarchy of Jiu-jitsu is from the top to the bottom. On top, they will learn the basic path towards the mount and back controls as well as early escape positions from the bottom. In addition to this, they will learn transitions between such positions like guard sweeps, basic guard passing and fundamental controlling techniques. Armed with greater control the student is more likely to learn to dominate important positions that lead to plentiful submission opportunities. The submission is the last aspect that will be prevalent from most ground techniques, the fundamentals of chokes and armlocks as well as their proper leverage points cannot be overstated as the student proceeds toward more advanced sessions where knowledge and coordinated practice of foundational submissions is prerequisite for both class attendance and retention. With the second stripe the student is now prepared to drive into more advanced takedowns, drills, guard positions, passes, transitional changes, and submission series. They now have a solid basic understanding of what Jiu-jitsu is and can perform many of its fundamental.
