Thank you!!!

Thanks for calling me out! But now I’m going to share something with you that you are unaware of: “Stop believing everything you read! In all the years I have taught (since 1991), I have only promoted one student online. This was a 20 year long student who was unable to travel to test with me in person because of COVID. So, I made an exception for him!” So, the rumors of me promoting people online are not true. Also, I wrote an article on my website about it: www.royharris.com/promotion-to-brown-belt-by-email/ I hope this brings clarity to this issue. Thanks for writing ☺️

@@RoyHarris it brought lots of clarity thank you maybe I shouldn’t be so quick to assume sometimes jiu jitsu has made me much more humble then before

@@aPerfectcircle23, no worries ☺️ Thanks for writing!

@@RoyHarris I just had one more question I lift weights once a week Gracie jiu jitsu 2-3 times a week atm any recommendation to train till older

@@aPerfectcircle23 I think you’re on a good path. Keep doing what you’re doing. The only thing I’d add is some flexibility training - specifically for the front side of your body!

You’re very welcome!!!

You’re very welcome!

Thank you 🙏🏽

Thank you 🙏🏽

You’re very welcome! Thank you for your kind comments! Yes, I do plan on releasing more instructional videos in the near future - both apps and online courses. And, I’ve recently been looking into finding locations to have Grapplers’ Retreats. NOTE: Yours truly hosted the first grappler’s retreat at a hotel in San Diego in the early 2000’s. I hope to do one again either this late fall or early in the Spring of 2025 ☺️ What would even be more fun would be to have one in Europe or the UK 🇬🇧

Here is where the pressure course is located: • courses.royharrisonlinecourses.com/bjj-pressure-2-0 Here are the current courses: • courses.royharrisonlinecourses.com/brazilian-jiu-jitsu These courses are not the same as the BJJ Fanatics course.

Thank you for your kind words! I will have online classes soon!

Let me begin by saying these two things: 1. Fast movements are for young guns, not for people who have "experienced" bodies. This is because fast movements with an experienced body often leads to unexpected injuries! 2. Underhooks and frames are only effective when you've been taught HOW and WHY to use them. And, they only become efficient when you're taught WHEN to use them. I suspect you're using them at the wrong time. I also suspect that you've never been taught WHEN to use frames and underhooks. So, talk to your instructor about these things. If he doesn't have the answers, hit me up for a short 15 minute private lesson and I'll teach you how to conquer this important area of training 😁

@RoyHarris thank u Professor. I will do that tomorrow.

True!! But if someone gets KNOCKED to the ground and becomes unconscious, no style will save them 😁

Thanks!

Thank you!

I'm not sure whaat you mean. You're having a difficult time escaping from the bottom of side control or controlling from the top? And, with whom are you having a difficult time? If it's someone who is one or two belts higher than you, then that's to be expected. If it's someone with better attributes than you - like a D1 wrestler or a Judo black belt, then that too is to be expected. So, please answer these questions so I can best address your problems.

@RoyHarris thank u Professor Harris for replying back to me. Wow. Yes escaping and controll top in Side Control. Just yesterday I was speaking to Dr. George who I work with in Chicago Cook County hosp. About what I was going through. He mentioned you. Look up some videos and it may help. So I have. Everything goes blank. I'm up against better, younger and at times just higher level belts. I'm a 59yr old blue belt.. this year will be better mindset and reposition. Lol. Thanks again. Wow Roy Harris Professor must not forget that. Lol.

I am so glad to hear that! Tell me what happened the last time.

Thank you so much!

😁

Hi Peter! Thanks for writing! Unfortunately, I never got the chance to meet, train or roll with Rener or Ryron. They were only 9 and 10 years old when I started training at the Gracie Academy in Torrance. And because I always attended classes during the day, they were usually in school.

Thank you Zaid!

Patrick, I am not sure what you mean. Here's why: Half-guard is a position where control can be exerted by the person on top or the person on the bottom. Please give me more details (e.g. You're on your right side or on your back, the opponent is grabbing with their left hand underneath or overtop of my head, he is applying a cross face, etc.). Traditionally, half-guard is taught as a position from which the person on the bottom has control and the person on top has to defend. Thanks!

Wtf is this comment? Harris is one of the most gifted practitioners we have in the jiu jitsu community. He's a national treasure, so stop with these comments whether you're joking or not. 😮

@@mastersplinter666 Don't give me that garbage! How many people well respected in their field have been arraigned for sexual misconduct?! so, don't you come at me with your garbage, do we understand each other?! I said Do we understand each other?!

Robert, I don't understand your comment. Please explain!

@@RoyHarris the guys just talking crap for no reason. I'll apologize for this nitwit's comment because he has no respect. Some of us understand how lucky we are to have you posting content online. Appreciate all of it Roy. Thanks sir !!

@@RoyHarris You don't understand my comment? Sure you do. You seem like a smart enough guy, so please don't pretend to be dumb with me.

I will release BJJ Pressure 2.0 this month!

@@RoyHarris Awesome! Can’t wait!

August 30th.
