BRAZILIAN JIU-JITSU'S CLASSES RULES OF CONDUCT

1.Show respect to everybody. Be polite and kind. Treat others like you would like to be treated.
2.Gi’s must be kept clean and sanitized. All gi’s must have the required Patches sewn on.
3.Should you arrive late, quickly line up at the edge of the mat and request permission to enter class. The decision to allow a late student onto the mat is entirely at the instructor discretion. The teacher may prefer the student to watch rather than risk injury due to missed warm ups.
4.Family members and friends are invited to watch class however, it is important that small children are contained and quiet during class. Also, only students are permitted on the mat. Please do not enter onto or walk across the mat while classes are going on if you are a spectator.
5.Family members and friends are encouraged to support students in class by applauding good efforts. However it’s not permitted coaching from anyone other than the teacher during the class.
6.Testing is mandatory at all levels. Students are required to attend testing in an approved gi with required Academy patches.
7.It’s expected that all students attend classes at least 2 times per week.
8.If you are on the mat don’t ever turn your back to who is training.
9.Always ask authorization to the instructors to drink water or go to the bathroom.
10.During class when the instructor is teaching a technique or when you watching someone’s training you must avoid be hanging on the wall, sitting with legs stretched and talking to someone else.
11.There is a proper way of fixing the gi and tide the belt, in case you don’t know how, please ask the teacher.

BASIC TECHNIQUES

There are at least two reasons to practice basic techniques (like the bridging mount escape, shrimping your hips to escape side mount, the technical stand up, etc.)

The first reason is that these techniques just plain WORK. Whitebelts with two months experience use them. BJJ world champions use them. UFC fighters win fights in the Octagon with them.

The more you practice these basic techniques then the faster and smoother you'll be able to do them. Eventually you'll use the basics automatically and without thought, as natural as breathing.

The second reason is that these techniques train and strengthen MOVEMENT PATTERNS. You can then use these movement patterns for other techniques.

For example, using a bridging escape to get out of mount strengthens your hip bridge. You will use this hip bridge to escape just about every other pinning position. In addition, your hip bridge also provides the power for many submissions, many takedowns and even some guard passes.

The better your bridging mount escape, the better your hip bridge. The better your bridge, the better your grappling.

Another example is shrimping your hips. This movement is an essential part of many side mount escapes, but it is also the core movement for setting up attacks from the guard, escaping positions other than side mount, and preventing your guard from getting passed in the first place.

A final example for today is the basic stand up motion. The stand up is used all the time to get back to your feet from the bottom, but I also use this exact motion on a daily basis in scrambles and to finish sweeps from X Guard.

Don't worry if you don't know what I'm talking about with X Guard sweep finishes - you will in time! (And if you do know then pat yourself on the back). The takehome message here is simply that if your basics are rock solid then it'll be easy for you to pick up and add advanced variations and techniques to your jiu-jitsu arsenal down the road.

The basics work, but they also make advanced techniques work.
