CURRICULUM: WEEK OF OCTOBER 19th

One of the most common questions students ask is how they can improve faster. The truth is simple but challenging; you need to focus on your movement. Every class starts with warmup movements which are often misunderstood to be a traditional workout. In fact, these movements train your body to move and react correctly which is crucial for being able to use the techniques in class.

At the end of class is your chance to marry your movement with timing. Every class ends with positional drilling in which we attempt to use the techniques from the position of the day against our partners. Only by using the technique against a reacting opponent will you truly begin to utilize your movement and feel Jiu-Jitsu instead of immitating it.

Make your goal to understand and the journey will be fun!
