Hasty Jiu-Jitsu Overview

THIS DOES NOT TAKE THE PLACE OF OUR BLACK BELT INSTRUCTORS

It’s more along the lines of helping to answer the question,
“What the hell did that guy mean when we were rolling and he said [WHATEVER]?”

There is a meme about people finding trash techniques on YouTube and trying to use them in front of their instructor. So I tried to find good instructors and decent enough videos and pictures to shed light on a few topics.

This is not exhaustive and only scratches the surface. But there is definitely some good stuff in there.

Please excuse any typos & bugs… I whipped this together all at once. There are bound to be mistakes.

Hope it is helpful!
