Episode notes
System Over Technique
- Traditional Jiu-Jitsu instruction often focuses on memorizing numerous techniques, creating a bloated system.
- An ecological approach simplifies this by focusing on basic human behaviors within the system.
Start with the End
- Start with a clear objective, like immobilization, and place new students in the end state.
- Let them experience the objective before adding the steps required to get there.
External Focus
- Use external cues rather than internal ones.
- Focus on the effect of movements on the opponent.
