Washingtoner/10204848

ENCINO, Calif. - Washingtoner -- Here is some BJJ News on how to get better at Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.

1. Start by finding a good BJJ training partner and drilling regularly:

A good BJJ training partner will help students to learn, develop the technique and practice regularly. If possible, find a more experienced partner who can give feedback, tips and pointers while drilling new techniques together. This is key to being able to learn how to make better "live" technical decisions.

2. Train consistently:

Consistency is key. Make sure that when students train Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, do it regularly. The more consistent students are with training sessions the better progress they will make in no time. I would say train at least 3-5 times a week if possible.

3. Focus on specific techniques:

It's important to focus on mastering specific techniques during each BJJ training session rather than just trying to learn many different things all at once. Choose one or two techniques that are comfortable and practice them until confident in its execution. As well, try and stick to foundational technique. Foundation beats flare.

A great way to learn BJJ fast is by watching instructional videos of high-level Jiu Jitsu practitioners performing specific techniques or positions. BJJ students can use this information to help enhance the quality of training sessions. Try and follow a few people on YouTube or Instagram that may have a similar game!

Another great way to improve skill quickly is by reading books and articles written by experienced Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practitioners. This will help Jiu Jitsu students understand the philosophy behind different positions and techniques, as well as provide a deeper understanding of BJJ overall.

7. DO NOT be afraid to ask for help:

It's important to remember that Brazilian Jiu Jitsu is a complex martial art and it can take some time to master the different positions and techniques. If ever in doubt or need help with something, don't be afraid to ask for assistance. If someone gets tapped by a certain technique perhaps students should ask them how they pulled it off or how it can be defended.
