There are countless moves used in BJJ, and it can take decades for you to master most of them. Being great at Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu isn’t about how many techniques you know – it’s about how sound your fundamentals and grappling strategy are. It isn’t that uncommon to see a lower belt defeat a higher-ranked training partner when rolling or in competitions.
Mastering BJJ starts with you mastering all the fundamentals. The fundamentals are what put you in positions to defend against submissions, transitions, and sweeps. With an excellent understanding of the fundamentals, you can put yourself in positions where you are able to attack your opponent with submissions effectively.
