Stop giving up your back when escaping the mount position.

This simple adjustment for any bjj beginner uses your forearms to build unbreakable frames that are nearly impossible for your opponent to collapse. By replacing your hands with your forearms, you create a stronger structure that makes it much easier to transition back to guard.

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere — but good, accurate data is genuinely hard to come by. Records, gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.

That's where you come in. If you spot something off, tell me and I'll fix it — every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
