Thanks to the generosity of the fine folks at Victory Belt, I've been able to go back and review some of their earliest publications like Eddie Bravo's Mastering the Rubber Guard.

There is no international governing body charged with developing and regulating BJJ. It is a living entity, indiscernible from those involved in its practice and development. It is our view that BJJ’s distinguishing characteristics are that it prioritizes effectiveness over tradition and a positional systems-based approach over any specific set of techniques. This curriculum is intended to give students a clear understanding of the Fox Den Martial Arts approach to BJJ. By laying out the central concepts and systematic underpinnings of BJJ we hope to provide a road map for your future development.

"Things will be different/' she told me as she gave me a hug. "But not that different." I ran further than I usually do on weekdays, to the highway outside of town, and picked it up on the way back. I'm nauseous now, walking with my arms over my head at the end of the driveway, when I hear the screech of brakes and a whimper behind me. I spin and see a dog trotting away from the postal truck in the middle of the street, turning his head around to eye it as the driver inside coughs hoarsely and rubs his forehead.

  • Development of the Elite Athlete Prepared by Dr
    Development of the Elite Athlete Prepared By Dr. David Bennett !When one starts to discuss a topic such as the “Development of the Elite Athlete” it is important to keep in mind the fact that in a room full of coaches who have spent their career working with Elite Athletes, a simple singular uniform approach would be very difficult to settle upon. This is due in part to the fact that the path to success has not been the same for all and that there are many cultural differences that come into play. There is a strong tendency of coaches to follow in the footsteps of their own personal coach or coaches and draw heavily upon their own experience as a athlete. A philosophy of “this is the way I was taught, this is the way I did it, and it worked for me.” This is human nature and certainly has some merit if in fact, there is a history of proven success behind it. So while not in all areas, at least in some, I think it is safe to say that we can agree that coaches will disagree on means and methods of the development of young athletes. I personally believe this is a good thing and that healthy discussion with an open mind on topics such as this results in building a better foundation for working with talented young athletes. Remember the mind is like a parachute, it doesn’t do you any good if it doesn’t open. !Athlete development from beginner to senior level is a long-term process with a different path in a country such as Russia compared to the USA.
