I am going to make a bold statement on this and say that Weidman will be the one to take the belt from the champ! Weidman looked phenomenal against Munoz! Munoz is no scrub! A D1 wrestler and no one controlled Munoz like Weidman! He was relentless with his submission attempts and how he controlled Munoz was Damn Impressive! I think Weidman will sub Anderson yeah I said it! Where Chael came up short I think Weidman will capitalize. Weidman has great bjj! Not that Aderson    is a slouch by any means, now Aderson is better than anyone in the world standing up in my opinion, so until he gets older and loses his step I think the ground is where he will get caught and I think Weidman just might be the guy to do it! So if you want to learn Bjj and you are in the Dayton area n stop into TENBEARSMMA in Dayton Ohio and we will get you pointed in the right direction!

This session of our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio class at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy focused on the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio triangle choke from the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio guard position.

After warming up and doing rolls and break falls, our first BJJ in Dayton, Ohio triangle choke entry was from the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio closed guard. From here, we grab one of our opponent’s arms and pull it towards us. The opponent’s natural reaction is to pull their arm in the opposite direction, making it easier for us to push that arm through our legs and wrap them around the opponent’s neck and other trapped arm, putting us in the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio triangle choke position.

Another entry to the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio triangle choke is from the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio open guard position. Once we have established the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio open guard position on our opponent, we put on foot on the opponent’s shoulder and pull their arms toward us. We then slide the foot that was on the shoulder up past the opponent’s shoulder while still pulling them into us, wrapping our legs around their neck and arm putting us in the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio triangle position.

Once done with drilling the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio triangle choke submission we then moved on to a BJJ in Dayton, Ohio drill we call the 4-point drill. This drill helps with being able to score points in a BJJ in Dayton, Ohio competition as it makes students mindful of trying to get the better position or preventing their opponent form getting it because the first person in the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio 4-point drill to score 4 points wins the match. When one match is over the winner stays in and faces a new opponent and the loser goes and waits in line to be paired up with another opponent once they become available. It is a very rapid drill and allows you to deal with different opponents a lot quicker than just conventional sparring, but with the same intensity and focus.

At the end of our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio class at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy we focused on our abdominals by doing some medicine ball exercises and followed it up with our yoga for fighters program to keep the body flexible.

In today’s Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Dayton, Ohio class at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy we focused on some basic BJJ in Dayton, Ohio sweeps from the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio guard position. 

We began our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio class at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy with some basic front rolls and side rolls, followed by break falls commonly found in Judo in Dayton, Ohio in order to toughen our bodies up for our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Dayton, Ohio training.

Once done with our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio warm ups we began working on what is known in BJJ in Dayton, Ohio as a "Pendulum sweep" from the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio guard position.  This involves putting our opponent in a BJJ in Dayton, Ohio guard position with our shin up against our opponent’s armpit while trapping that hand against our hip and then grabbing their pant leg on the opposite side of the trapped arm and then turning our body against that leg to make them off balance.  From there, the opponent will try to post on their free hand in order to regain their balance, which is what we want them to do in our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio guard position. Once they post out with that hand, we then force our hips the opposite way against the opponent’s trapped arm and sweep them onto their back, putting us in the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio full mount position, which is one of the best positions to be in when doing BJJ in Dayton, Ohio especially at a BJJ in Dayton, Ohio competition as it will earn the most points you can get in a BJJ in Dayton, Ohio competition.

Another variation of the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio pendulum sweep from the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio guard position is from where the opponent posts out with there hand.  From here, we can then feed our leg through the opponent’s arm and put them in a BJJ in Dayton, Ohio triangle choke position, where we can apply pressure to their neck and make them "tap out."  


Once we were done with our drilling of the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio pendulum sweep from the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio guard position we then moved on to our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio sparring session of class we call "wiping the mat" which involves live sparring in order to get the maximum benefit from our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio training. 

When our bodies were good and tired from the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio sparring we finished up our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Dayton, Ohio training at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy with our yoga for fighters in Dayton, Ohio session to help our bodies cool down and stay flexible from our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio training.

   I am going to talk about UFC 142 and how you can learn the techniques they used, at TENBEARSMMA in Dayton Ohio. So let me talk about the co main event first, Vitor Belfort vs Anthony Johnson. Anthony is a big strong wrestler that came in 11 lbs over weight, so Vitor had to weather a little bit of a storm, but Vitor got Anthony with good old fashion Jiu-Jitsu! And Palhares got Mike Massenzio with Jiu-Jitsu too! Maybe just maybe it is good to know this jiu-jitsu stuff! Well guess what TENBEARSMMA in Dayton Ohio offers Jiu-Jitsu classes we also go over all the other stuff you see in the UFC! So I am going to go over a couple fights and some of the techniques. First Vitor and Johnson it is no doubt that wrestlers transition into MMA very very well and a lot of people think the future of the UFC will be strong wrestlers, and they might be right but Jiu-Jitsu is evolving as I type this blog, and you see that even great wrestlers get submitted (Anderson submitting Chael Sonnen) and so on, I am sure Chael has worked on his Submissions since that fight and just want to say I hope he destroys Bisbing Just had to get that in there. So back to Vitor and Anthony to sum it up Anthony got a couple takedowns put could not do much on the ground so they got stood up Johnson went for another take down after a scramble for position vitor sprawled and looked like he could of went for a darce choke but maybe did not want to lose a great position so he transitioned to the back Johnson tried to turn into vitor to defend the rear naked choke but vitor softend him up with punches and Johnson gave up his back, vitor went palm to palm and got the tap! So how does TENBEARSMMA in Dayton Ohio correlate with what you see on T.V.? in many ways if you like the standup and we do have students that just like one particular art, and that is fine sensei Jim was a golden cloves boxer and trained muay Thai under Oscar Kallet, so we got some skills to pass on to you. TENBEARSMMA in Dayton Ohio has a very respectable judo background if you like the art of throwing we got you covered and we got jiu-jitsu! gi and no gi! And TENBEARSMMA in Dayton Ohio is the only Southern Ohio’s Marcello C. Monterio affiliate school!

Our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Dayton, Ohio class at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy focused on some variations of the arm drag takedown.  After our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio warm up session was done, we began with drilling the basic BJJ in Dayton, Ohio arm drag with our partners.
The first BJJ in Dayton, Ohio arm drag takedown we practiced was a variation that involved grabbing the opponent’s arm behind the tricep and then reaching around their back with our other hand and grabbing their belt or their torso if they are not wearing a gi.  From there we simply sit down and pull the opponent into us, ending up in a BJJ in Dayton, Ohio back mount position.
The BJJ in Dayton, Ohio back mount position is one of the best BJJ in Dayton, Ohio positions because it allows us to perform a number of BJJ in Dayton, Ohio submissions such as rear naked chokes, which are commonly seen in MMA in Dayton, Ohio fights, and arm bars from the back mount.  It is also one of the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio positions that will earn you the most points in a BJJ in Dayton, Ohio competition if you plan to compete in Dayton, Ohio.

Another variation of the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio arm drag we practiced was from the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio half guard position. If the opponent tries to reach for our head with their arm, we simply perform the same BJJ in Dayton, Ohio arm drag we practiced before by pulling their arm across their body and moving to their back, putting us back in the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio back mount position.
Once we were done drilling the BJJ in Dayton, Ohio arm drag variations, we then moved on to our application part of our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio class where we grappled with resisting opponents round after round in order to better our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio techniques.
We then finished up our Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Dayton, Ohio class at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy with our yoga for fighters in Dayton, Ohio session to help stretch out the body and relax the mind so we are able to recover easier from our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio training.

In today’s MMA in Dayton, Ohio conditioning class at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy we worked on dealing with counters to an opponent’s roundhouse kick.

After warming up the body at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy, we worked on a basic counter to the roundhouse kick, which is a kick commonly found in many Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio. To begin, as the opponent performs the roundhouse kick in Dayton, Ohio we move our body into the kick by stepping to the side along the path of the kick so that we don’t let the roundhouse kick hit us. Then we catch their roundhouse kick with our arms and step into the opponent and sweep the leg they are currently standing on. From there we can go to the ground and apply our BJJ in Dayton, Ohio techniques on our opponent. This is also an effective technique in MMA in Dayton, Ohio especially when the opponent has a background in striking Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio and little to no experience in grappling in Dayton, Ohio as it takes away their position for striking and puts them in unfamiliar territory which makes it even easier to perform BJJ in Dayton, Ohio techniques on them. It is also effective for self-defense in Dayton, Ohio as it puts the opponent on the ground forcefully, while leaving you in a superior standing position if you do not want to go to the ground.

Another variation of the roundhouse kick defense we trained at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy was once you block the opponent’s kick, you shoot in and wrap your leg around the opponent’s leg and force them to the ground where you can apply your BJJ in Dayton, Ohio techniques to them. This is a risky move as it gives up your standing position and forces you to go to the ground so it may be a situational technique in a self-defense in Dayton, Ohio situation as there may be more than one opponent around.

Once done with the kicking defense techniques at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy we then moved on to some station drills that worked on our MMA in Dayton, Ohio conditioning to help build up our cardio and technique. Once the stations drills at Tenbears Martial Arts in Dayton, Ohio Academy were done we then moved on to our sparring in Dayton, Ohio session where we brought all of our MMA in Dayton, Ohio techniques together against resisting opponents to get the maximum benefit from our MMA in Dayton, Ohio training.

We then finished up our MMA in Dayton, Ohio conditioning class with our yoga for fighters in Dayton, Ohio program to help stretch our bodies out and prevent any further injuries from occurring.

On December 10 some of the members of Tenbears Martial Arts Academy in Dayton, Ohio went to a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu seminar held by Marcello C. Monteiro. Tenbears Martial Arts Academy in Dayton, Ohio is the only Marcello C. Monteiro Brazilian Jiu Jitsu martial arts school in the southern Ohio area. Marcello C. Monteiro’s style of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu in Dayton, Ohio is known for it’s BJJ in Dayton, Ohio half guard techniques, so he focused a lot of time demonstrating techniques from this position. The half guard in BJJ is where the opponent has one leg free of your guard, but their other leg is still trapped inside your guard. Most other styles of BJJ in Dayton, Ohio use the half guard as more of a transition point, but Marcello C. Monteiro was able to show us some BJJ sweeps from this position. One involved diving between the opponent’s legs and under-hooking their free leg while bringing their base on top of you. From there, your grab the ankle of their leg that is still trapped, to prevent them from escaping that foot. Afterwards, we escaped our hips out from under the opponent while still trapping their leg and pushed them forward, with us ending up behind them where we then stuck both of our feet behind their knees and straightened our legs while pulling their body into us. This causes them to fall back and puts is in the BJJ position known as the back mount, where BJJ in Dayton, Ohio submissions like the rear naked choke can be applied. Taking an opponent’s back is one of the best BJJ positions to be in whether it be MMA in Dayton, Ohio or competition Jiu Jitsu in Dayton, Ohio, as the back mount is worth 4 points which is the most points that can be awarded for obtaining a superior BJJ position in sport Jiu Jitsu in Dayton, Ohio. Another technique that Marcello C. Monteiro taught at his BJJ seminar was how to apply a gooseneck wrist-lock against an opponent that is resisting an arm bar, as well as a submission against an opponent resisting a triangle choke which ended up with creating pressure against their bicep with our wrist. The BJJ seminar was then finished up with a ceremony in which Marcello C. Monteiro shared some of his BJJ philosophies and awarded his students with their next rank in BJJ in Dayton, Ohio, be it another stripe on their belt or the next belt rank.

Sunday’s Brazilian jiu jitsu class at Tenbears martial arts academy in Dayton, Ohio. Our "open mat" class where students have the opportunity to train in any aspect they please this Dayton, Ohio MMA school. Once warmed up, the students that were practicing BJJ ground techniques worked on their Mountaineer sweep from an open guard position at Tenbears MMA in Dayton, Ohio. This sweep involves pushing your hips up into your opponent when they have straitened their posture while in your guard, causing their weight to be shifted backwards. The opponent may post a hand on the mat in order to brace themselves from being swept, which is what we want them to do because we then pull that hand into our bodies to break their post and continue to drive them with our hips, ending up in a BJJ full mount position on top of the opponent at this MMA school in Dayton, Ohio. After training in the Mountaineer sweep, we did another sweep that involves being in the BJJ open guard position. First we take one of our legs and bring it over the opponents arm on that side and bring the leg across their chest and putting the foot into their opposite armpit, trapping that arm. From there, we pull the other arm across our body to the opposite side while pushing out with our leg that we have across their chest, breaking their balance and sweeping them and gaining 2 points for the sweep. At Tenbears MMA in Dayton, Ohio we train to compete and for a basic exercise that won’t get boring in Dayton, Ohio. We finished up the "open mat" class at Tenbears MMA in Dayton, Ohio by doing some light BJJ sparring to apply the sweeps we just practiced.STAY TUNED TO GET MORE INFO ABOUT BJJ MOVES!
