This is the second episode in a three part series about the common analogies that we use in the Brazilian Jiu Jitsu community. More than just poetic language, these analogies are tools that help us make sense of complex ideas. This episode explores the water analogy.
 
The intro & outro song is “Funky Butts”, by Texasradiofish.

The name has changed, the flavor remains the same.

This episode is the start of a three part series about several common analogies that we use in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Analogies are more than just poetic language, they are powerful tools that help people make sense of the world. Exploring them is often a valuable exercise. This first episode will be about BJJ as physical chess, the second episode will be about the ground as an ocean, and the third episode will be about matches as dialogues. Thank you for listening, I hope you enjoy!
 
The intro music is “Funky Butts” by Texasradiofish.

How does JT teach his favorite takedowns? How does he scout opponents? What are the staples of his sneaker collection? The answers to these questions and more can be found in this episode of The BJJ Tap podcast. Please enjoy the second half of my interview with JT Torres, and thank you for listening.

There are levels to this game, and Jonathan “JT” Torres has repeatedly demonstrated that he is at the top of the grappling food chain. JT is a two-time ADCC champion, he is the youngest American BJJ black belt, he recently opened a thriving BJJ school in Hartsdale NY, and he married his long-time girlfriend the weekend before this interview. We discuss these topics and more during the first half of this candid interview, please enjoy and subscribe.

The first half of this episode presents a reliable approach to developing gameplans for competition. In Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, matches are won by the grappler who is able to make the best decisions under great stress. Gameplans are the key to making great grappling decisions. In the second half of this episode I tell the story of the first time that I got choked unconscious in competition.
