The good old days. Fit Plus Tournament, 2010.

Looking back, I’m grateful for every local tournament I entered as a white belt and blue belt. Those competitions weren’t just about medals. They were where I built experience, confidence, and learned how to perform under pressure.

Those weekends competing around the Maritimes helped prepare me for much bigger stages, including the IBJJF World Championships.

If you want to become a great competitor, there’s no shortcut—you have to compete. Every match is a chance to learn, improve, and sharpen your sword.

I asked AI to show me what I’d have looked like in the ’80s and ’90s… 😆

Now I’m wondering if I missed my true calling as an extra in a Jean-Claude Van Damme movie. 😎

Which look wins?

The twister is one of the most unique submissions in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.

When your opponent starts escaping your back control and gets their shoulders to the mat, there’s a window to transition into the twister instead of trying to force the back.

It’s not something you’ll hit every round, but it’s a fun technique to have in your toolbox when the opportunity presents itself.

John Danaher showing a simple but really effective concept: don’t just have a technique, have an answer for their reaction.

First, he sets up the double ankle sweep (dummy sweep). When his opponent reacts quickly and pops back up to his knees, Danaher controls the upper body and immediately transitions into a butterfly hook sweep, or sumi gaeshi.

The techniques themselves aren’t particularly complicated. The real skill is understanding what your opponent’s reaction gives you next.

Good Jiu-Jitsu isn’t just knowing what to do. It’s knowing when to do it! John Danaher 🙏

A slick wrestling counter from one of the best scramblers in the sport.

Roman Bravo-Young( romanbravoyoung ) is a 2× NCAA Division I national champion, 4× All-American at Penn State, and one of the most explosive wrestlers of his generation. His creativity in scrambles is second to none.

If someone shoots a double leg from their knees and starts lifting you, this is a brilliant counter to reverse the position and end up on top.

One of the biggest challenges for many jiu-jitsu athletes is dealing with strong wrestlers. Having a few unexpected counters like this can completely change those exchanges.

Definitely one worth adding to your game.
