Greg Souders teaches me how to implement the Constraints-Led Approach for jiu jitsu, a coaching methodology that's part of the theory of ecological dynamics. Watch me iterate LIVE on game design for myself and for 2 other athletes to see if we can get skills to emerge...
With the frequent use of technical jargon being commonplace in this training niche, I wanted to find out firsthand what the actual practical design of these types of training games looks like.
This took place at Standard Jiu Jitsu at the beginning of April, a no-gi BJJ gym where students (like Deandre Corbe who just won 2024 ADCC West Coast Trials) learn jiu jitsu not by statically drilling techniques, but by taking part in games that look quite like situational sparring... but with some nuance.
Thank you Greg for hosting me and being so generous with your time! It was an absolute pleasure, and I hope all of you watching this video get the opportunity to train at Standard Jiu Jitsu.
