Fundamentals of Jiu-Jitsu & Judo

Our first book aimed to explain complex techniques around Half Guard and drills for passing the Guard, targeted at the intermediate and advanced skill levels. However, it did not delve into the fundamental principles of Judo and Jiu-Jitsu.

In our latest book, we've comprehensively covered the essentials of Jiu-Jitsu, integrating Judo techniques in an unprecedented manner. Our primary goal is to guide beginner students through the myriad positions, techniques, and terminology, sharing the wisdom accumulated over decades of training and teaching Jiu-Jitsu globally.

Additionally, this book serves as a blueprint for new Jiu-Jitsu instructors, helping them build a curriculum grounded in the fundamentals. This resource is particularly valuable for instructors who haven't yet achieved their black belt, offering detailed insights into Ukemi, Takedowns, Immobilization, Submissions, and their variations.

Embodying two years of Jiu-Jitsu curriculum, this book is an indispensable tool for students to study and master different positions. While nothing can replace the time spent on the mat, this book is designed to supplement classroom learning and serve as a valuable study aid at home.
