Passing the half guard. I wanted to see if I could edit in some faces, so this one features Will Ferrell, because it happens to be his birthday, and John C. Reilly. Hey, how good is Step Brothers, am I right? #BJJ #whitebelt

From a fun session on open guard passing. I'm just now noticing that the fourth illustration makes it look like your left knee is no longer pinning the opponent's leg, that's my mistake. The knee stays put. #BJJ #whitebelt

Matt, no!

Basic knee mount to arm bar. Of course, people tend not to extend their arm like that if they've been training for more than a week, but I got a friend with one of these when he joined me for a trial session. Felt especially gratifying since he's a boxer + way stronger than me, hehe #BJJ #whitebelt

He was riffing, he's not Like That

I got to talking about life after death with the security guards (I know, I know) & one of them said he'd like to be reincarnated as himself, back when he was first born in 1999, but with his current memories/experiences. Then he'd have two years to train to "prevent nine eleven" as a toddler, lol

The security guards I work with are normally the worst part of the job, being mostly a rotating cast of Joe Rogan fans + one irony-poisoned Tim pool moron, but this week we have my two absolute favorites: Chill BJJ Nerd & Large, Jovial Medieval Reenactment Dude. #blessed

Me when I finally hit the mats again

look how cute i am rolling rolling please give me my afternoon treat

Armbar/omoplata from closed guard. I was joined by a mustachioed friend for my first session back since a knee injury (in February!) and had to give him a guest appearance. I struggled a bit with the foreshortening here, but I think it's legible. #BJJ #whitebelt

Hans Holbein ass setup

Between the maritime decor, the Kennedy biographies and the fact that this guy is named Chasen, I feel like I'm being lectured by one of the antagonists from Caddyshack. I'm sorry, Chasen, your content is simply #NotForMe

This feels like a good time to try to get people interested in mutual aid and anarchism, ijs

A counter to the ankle catch mount escape #BJJ #whitebelt

Your classic ankle catch mount escape, + a way to defend against it. In step 2 your hands should press against your opp's left hip, and your left forearm should press against their waist. Your bottom leg can be used to push their left leg away, making it easier to trap it #bjj #whitebelt

This went better than I hoped! I'm officially back babyyyyyy 🤼🏻‍♂️

My knee is still kind of fucked, but I'm going to try hitting the mats again on Tuesday, for the first time since February. Got this knee brace yesterday, and it may be placebo, but it feels like it's doing something. Wish me luck! #BJJ

Headlock defense, featuring a helpful green scribble from the toddler. #BJJ #whitebelt

If your opponent curls up and makes it difficult to get the second hook in, try stretching them out! #BJJ #whitebelt

i've always loved the Terry Pratchett Boots Theory of socioeconomics but it's really striking now how it's slowly becoming inaccurate bc so many companies straight up do not make good products anymore. not even rich people can buy things that aren't designed to break in 3 years bc they don't exist

Go ahead, motherfucker,

From a book called The Art and Science of Judo. I'm sure these are sound principles, but the mathematical approach to fighting/sparring is pretty funny imho

"Dude, that's awesome, good looking out"

I'm looking through some BJJ videos I bookmarked a couple of years ago when I had just started training and it's like babe, WHEN were you going to use this, worry about your nonexistent guard retention

Someone made a small protest encampment at my university. They set up a community library, so I dropped off a stack of books:) (The parenti is not one of mine, lol)

do not misunderstand what is happening in israel. they want the hostages back. they want netanyahu out. and then they want to wipe gaza off the face of the earth.

These antisemitic protestors are the worst

Thousands of Israelis take to streets of Tel Aviv to demand cease-fire and Netanyahu's resignationapnews.com Protesters are demanding the government reach a deal to bring the hostages back from Gaza, for new elections and the resignation of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

Been too busy lately for jiu jitsu, drawing and posting jiu jitsu drawings, but I break my silence to say Fuck Israel, always and forever

In a hurry, moving quickly through the kitchen, I grabbed my toddler's bowl of food from the counter, but it has a big suction cup on the bottom, and suddenly I had a real Marcel Marceau moment

This stupid joke was rattling around in my head

The Charlottesville BJJ instructional videos on yt are funny cause there's no banter, no cute nicknames for regular viewers, comments section is closed. It's like if the government made PSAs about how to do stack passes and guillotine chokes youtube.com/watch?v=IywA...

Single Stack Passyoutube.com

A moron c-list celeb in my city went to Israel to volunteer for the IOF and now his stupid thrift store is being vandalized and boycotted. Says he'd rather have a "clean heart than dirty money", well guess what bitch, you won't have either

Some half guard passing. The uke should be on their back in the 5th step, not on their side like how I drew it. That's kind of the point of rolling them over your hands. Other than that I'm happy with it #BJJ #whitebelt
