Cut Your Nails Before Going To Jiu Jitsu Training #jiujitsu #jiujitsulifestyle #friscotx

From Diamondback Jiu-Jitsu

October 12, 2026

Every Jiu Jitsu practitioner knows that rolling with someone who has long fingernails is a nightmare waiting to happen! One accidental scratch can turn a great training session into a painful experience.

In this funny BJJ short, a simple invitation to roll takes a hilarious turn when one student notices his training partner's dangerously long nails. His reaction says it all!

Whether you're a white belt or black belt, keeping your fingernails and toenails trimmed is basic Jiu Jitsu etiquette. Protect your training partners, practice good hygiene, and keep the mats safe for everyone!

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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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.
