When you first start out in jiu-jitsu, the movements used on the mats can seem completely foreign to you if you’ve never done wrestling or other martial arts before. Getting your body used to moving so differently can be a challenge all its own, and if you get used to it faster, a lot of the techniques will come a lot easier to you.
In this Jiu-Jitsu Times exclusive clip, Sam Byrne of Movement for BJJ demonstrates five solo drills that can benefit everyone, but specifically newer jiu-jitsu athletes who are still getting used to the way we move in BJJ. Take a look and practice these wherever you can find space to roll around!
