The Fastest Way to Learn BJJ: A Guide for Beginners

« Back to blog

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) seems complex at first. It’s like a huge puzzle without an obvious starting point. But, there’s a smart way to get good at it quickly. Let’s simplify this into steps, like putting together a puzzle: start with the corners, add the borders, then fill in the middle.

Begin with the Corners: Basic Positions and Their Order

When you start a puzzle, you find the corners first. In BJJ, these are the basic positions and their hierarchy. Understanding these positions is your foundation. Knowing your position in relation to your opponent guides your next move. This understanding is crucial whether you’re getting to a better spot or escaping a bad one.

Then the Borders: The Fundamentals

Once the corners are in place, you work on the puzzle’s edges. In BJJ, this means mastering the fundamentals. This includes moving between positions well and knowing several moves from each position.

Fill the Rest: Advanced Moves

With the edges complete, the rest of the puzzle is easier to solve. In BJJ, these are the advanced moves. This is about refining what you know, learning complex moves, and making your style unique. Advanced techniques make your game deeper, letting you control fights more cleverly.

The BJJ Lab Curriculum: Basics to Advanced

The BJJ Lab’s training follows this puzzle method. It takes you from basics to fundamentals and then to advanced smoothly. This ensures a strong base, adding layers as you improve. Starting with basics sets your foundation. Adding fundamentals makes your game strategic. Advanced moves add finesse.

By treating your BJJ training like a puzzle, you make sure no part is missed. Each learning phase builds on the last, creating a complete, well-rounded game. So, get ready, hit the mats, and start putting together your BJJ puzzle. The path from beginner to skilled might look long, but with the right approach, it’s not just doable but incredibly rewarding.
