Understanding Funneling in Jiu-Jitsu
Funneling is a strategic concept in jiu-jitsu that emphasizes guiding matches to positions where a practitioner is stronger and their opponent is weaker. This approach allows athletes to create advantages by steering the fight toward their preferred techniques and positions. Historical examples, such as military strategies that focused on funneling enemies into narrow passes for easier targeting, illustrate the importance of gaining positional control. For jiu-jitsu practitioners, identifying these advantageous positions and building a game plan around funneling can enhance their effectiveness in competitions and self-defense scenarios.
