A good drill to work when trying to improve supine open guard, as you get more comfortable with it then start adding foot pummelling and hand fighting as your opponent starts trying to pass from the outside. ..#bjj #jiujitsu #brazilianjiujitsu #nogi #bjjtechnique by @kanancj

I remember every time I would train takedowns I would gas out in 3 minutes, I see now it was because I was doing all 3 mistakes. Tensing up before a long distance shot with terrible posture, constantly ending up in a guillotine. Trust me and save your lower back, fix these mistakes now!..#wrestling #bjj #grappling #jiujitsu #mma by @kanancj

There’s something way cooler about hitting someone with a sweep you learnt on your intro class than a fancy spinning mctwist...#bjj #brazilianjiujitsu #jiujitsu #nogi #bjjtechnique by @kanancj

When I first saw this I thought, no way! But as iv been workshopping it in training it actually is a very powerful position...#bjj #brazilianjiujitsu #jiujitsu #nogi #bjjtechnique by @kanancj

Consistency wins. This won’t happen over night but if you stick to this you will notice things will start to change.I have definitely been guilty of a couple of these over the years training, thank god it’s never too late to change the way you train. Tag a training partner who needs to see this 📌...#bjj #jiujitsu #grappling #martialarts #mma by @kanancj

It can be annoying to finish the collar choke on this side so this is an easy way to switch our position for more power. ..#bjj #brazilianjiujitsu #jiujitsu #bjjtechnique #submissiongrappling by @kanancj

Who you see use this to pass the best guards in the world is Tainan Dalpra. Notice the connections he makes to lift the opponents shoulder to start exposing the back and remove their far leg.Do you have trouble dealing with flexible guards? Try this next time…..#bjj #brazilianjiujitsu #jiujitsu #bjjtechnique #ibjjf by @kanancj

It’s a fun story now but I remember in the moment I was very close to drowning, I think if there was one more wave to the set I was done. I kind of remember accepting that fact. Happy 60th @rcj6666 hope you score that 60fter 👊..#eddieaikau #northshore #bornmaniac #bigwavesurfing #hawaii by @kanancj

The upper body pinning is really what gets the job done, not fancy foot work. Once you’ve got this skill down you can start doing whatever you like to pass as long as you’re not jeopardising the pin. ..#bjj #brazilianjiujitsu #jiujitsu #nogi #grappling by @kanancj

Over the years of training and multiple injuries and surgeries I have realised something. That 90% of injuries are completely avoidable. Here are 3 reasons that I see in the gym, where the problem is the ego and centred around the way we view “losing” in the gym. Slide along to see what they are. I think trap number 2 might be the most common I see. 2 people start rolling light and it eventually escalates to a full blown competition round where someone gets hurt, I admit this was always my problem. Make sure you cut these habits from your training if you intend to do this sport for a while.Stay safe! Train hard.#bjj #mma #marcelogarcia #injuryprevention #jiujitsu by @kanancj
