You guys should check out Gracie Combatives in Torrance and Beverly Hills if you're in S. California. They emphasis "street jiu jitsu" where you're fighting as if you're in a street fight instead of tournament bjj. They're also the ones doing the UFC breakdowns. Great school.
 
BJJ is a neet art. MY hometown had a Gracie Barra School, Talked with the guys who ran it once, and they discribed BJJ as " The Fine art of countering and grapeling your opponent to the ground so you can sit on his chest and punch him in the face untill he passes out."

Simple, effective, and it made me chuckle.

Cool training mentality of the dojo masters ( is that the right term for a BJJ sensi? is Sensi even the right term? Donno. If not, I appologise) was to spar with as many varied martial arts disciplins as possible, with the intention of finding counters, blocks, and grapples that worked best.

For the record, I've studied Grappling, Judo, Akido, And Yoshukai Shotokan Karate. As well as some weapons instruction. Always REALLY enjoyed judo and Akido. Neet stuff.
 
All of my BJJ instructors have been called "Professor." I've trained at 3 different schools throughout my years, and this is the accepted name for them. One of my professors is a good friend of mine so when there wasn't any other students there we would call each other ********* or assface, but when in class I'd call him professor and answer yes sir, or no sir.
 
IMO it's more or less the "traditional" term because I see more and more of the younger instructors not using it anymore. The first coach I trained under is 100% "off the boat" Brazilian and I always refer to him as professor or sir…even to this day when I see him around tournaments.

My current coach is younger and doesn't require this from the students so I see the younger guard as being more loose with the traditions, which IMO is not good for the BJJ sport.
 
I'd just like to add that even though I'd panic the same way if I ever was to face a similar situation, I'll really go all out before being KO'd or taken down. Cuz now I have nothing to lose! :lecture

Oh, and I used to punch at rough walls to vent my anger. Them knuckles used to pain like hell and bleed too but hey, at least that used to get my girl going! :yess:

Holy Crap, an honest, Humble answer in this thread.

:hi5:
Why, thank you. I'll be here for a while! :wink1:

I liked this answer too. I hope my answer wasn't thought of as cocky or whatnot because it wasn't meant to. Bottom line I was trying to get across was just to be respectful.

:1-1:everybody
No disrespect felt :1-1:

You know ... despite your nerves; I think everything you've learned would have kicked in ... automatically.

That's kinda the point of formal training. it becomes ingrained, and part of your "muscle memory". The intention is for it to become automatic, and let your instinct and reflexes take over should you need it.

Becuase in a real situation, there is VERY LITTLE time to think.

:lol

Yup, but that's my point. You train so much that it becomes reflex. Like you would perform an action without thinking.
 
Exactly. I've had a whopping ONE instance where I've needed what I've learned, and the only response I had before I realised what was hapening was a sidestep dodge, and a Upper block. The situation calmed down immediately, and both myself and the guy who took a swing were kinda suprised at how quick i reacted.

Afterwords, we calmed down, got a drink and talked a bit about it. the whole expierence was VERY surreal.
 
I throw ****ing fireballs at *****es if they step to me. Followed up by a massive hurricane kick and hyper uppercut. :yess:
 
I usually do an.. up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start before I get into a "real" fight. Those extra lives come in pretty handy. :lecture
 
I just wear my infinite ammo bandanna.

I find if you aren't winning the fight after 5 to 10 seconds you might lose
 
I'd just hide behind the trash can and wait for my health to regen.
