“The most successful people see adversity not as a stumbling block, but as a stepping stone to greatness.” -Shawn Anchor. @cb_blyth is one of the hardest workers in the squad, and his presence (and more specifically, his pressure 🤣) is felt on the mats🤙 @cb_blyth was forced to pause his BJJ journey due to injuries he sustained as a first responder. @cb_blyth was undeterred by the set back, and was determined to heal and return to the mats. @cb_blyth’s resilience and tenacity not only enabled him to recover in warp speed; he hit the mats running and was sharp as ever👊 Congratulations on levelling up to brother, as it’s much deserved and well earned 🟪⬛️🟪 The squad is also excited to have @niagarabjj Black Belt and Pro MMA and Muay Thai fighter @cody.kent on board!!!🔥🔥🔥 @cobrakaiseries #☢️61

“To live in hearts we leave behind is not to die.” -Thomas Campbell. The Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu community lost one of it’s Canadian pioneers. Professor Syl Moroney (@bravado_martial_arts_academy) was an exceptional instructor, and an even greater human being. One of Professor Syl’s many achievements was serving as a Coach for Team Canada at the 1998 World Kobudo Federation International Grappling Championship in Strasbourg, France 🇫🇷. Coach Mat had the honour of being coached by Professor Syl, who cultivated an incredible team dynamic and lead the charge to a gold medal performance. SCBJJ wishes to extend its condolences to the Moroney family and Syl’s BJJ family. Rest in peace Professor 🙏🏻

“Photographs are a return ticket to a moment otherwise gone.” -Katie Thurmes. Coach Mat had the pleasure of wearing many hats in the MMA game, and serving as a ringside/cageside interviewer at Freedom Fights and TKO (respectively) definitely topped the list🤙 #☢️61

Posted @withregram • @pfedbjj 🎥 LEG LOCK OPTION FROM X GUARD: USING BACKSIDE 50/50 TO COUNTER A HEAVY LEG 👀 with important finishing details👌 @stoneycreekbjj
This is a great option when you play a classic X guard with a scoop grip! When thinking about leg locks from X guard, sometimes attacking your opponent's far leg can become difficult when their weight is forward and that lead leg becomes heavy. In situations like this attacking the rear leg is often a better option - here I demonstrate how to turn the corner to get behind your opponent and finish with a strong backside heel hook 🦶 🔒
