🥋 Sumi Gaeshi — Corner Reversal

Sometimes going down is how you come out on top. Instead of trying to muscle your opponent over, you use their forward pressure, momentum, and balance against them.

The basic idea is that you establish upper-body control, sit/fall underneath your opponent while placing a foot or shin to help elevate them, and use that leverage and momentum to send them over and come up into the top position.

🥋 BULLY PROOF: Your first move isn’t an armbar.

Yes, our kids learn Jiu-Jitsu.

They learn takedowns, escapes, sweeps, and submissions like this armbar. But being Bully Proof isn’t about teaching kids to fight.

It’s about giving them the confidence and skills to know what to do — and when to do it.

For our Little Ninjas, we teach two steps:

🗣️ TALK — Verbal Jiu-Jitsu.
Use your words, your voice, and your confidence to try to handle the situation without getting physical.

🙋 TELL.
If talking doesn’t work, ask a trusted adult for help.

As our kids get older, our Juniors learn a third step:

🗣️ TALK — Verbal Jiu-Jitsu.
🙋 TELL — Get help from a trusted adult.
🥋 TACKLE — If it becomes physical and you cannot safely get away, use your Jiu-Jitsu training to protect yourself with the minimum force necessary.

That's why learning an armbar isn't really about the armbar.

It's about building a child who has the confidence to speak up, the judgment to ask for help, the skills to protect themselves if necessary, and the self-control to know the difference.

❤️ Talk. Tell. Tackle.
Confidence first. Jiu-Jitsu when necessary.

Why does everyone keep “shrimping” across the mat? 🦐

The hip-out is one of the foundational movements in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. By turning to your side, planting your foot and moving your hips away from your opponent, you create the space you need to escape, recover guard, or improve your position.

It may look simple—but you'll use this movement again and again in Jiu-Jitsu.

Learn the movement first. Then learn where it can take you. 🥋

O Soto Gari—a classic takedown that teaches balance, timing, and control. It might look powerful, but it’s all about technique, not strength.

At Dark Horse, our students learn to stay balanced, to control their partner safely, and to build confidence through repetition. Every class is another chance to learn, grow, and have fun on the mats.

What's your favorite takedown to practice?

Bully Proof Month 🥋

Being bully-proof isn't about teaching kids to fight.

It starts much earlier — learning to stand confidently, use their voice, recognize when something isn't right, create space, and know when to get help.

And if walking away is no longer an option? That's where their training gives them another tool.

Confidence. Awareness. Control.

That's Bully Proof.
