07/13/2026 BJJ Moves of the Week

This week, we will be continuing to work on our open guard.

Open guard is a very valuable tool in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu because it allows us to open up our game and become more adaptive to our opponent’s movements, pressure, and counters. Unlike more fixed positions, open guard encourages mobility, timing, and awareness, helping students develop stronger reactions and better control during live exchanges.

As you progress through the BJJ system, open guard becomes a critical skill to have. It not only improves your ability to defend and attack from the bottom, but also helps you create transitions, manage distance, and set up sweeps, submissions, and positional advances. Developing confidence in open guard is an important step toward building a more complete and effective overall game.

In class, we will continue focusing on the key concepts, movements, and techniques that make open guard effective, while also looking at how to respond to common passing attempts.

"The greatest gift Jiu-Jitsu gives a woman isn't the ability to walk through the world looking for a fight it’s the quiet confidence of knowing she can handle herself if one finds her."
