The Difference Between a Good Instructor and a Great One πŸ₯‹

Anyone can demonstrate a technique. Great instructors demonstrate it responsibly.

In this video with Professor Charles dos Anjos, you'll see how an experienced instructor safely teaches a potentially dangerous technique by protecting the student's head and reminding everyone to train slowly and under control.

In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, technical excellence and safety go hand in hand. The best coaches don't just build championsβ€”they build training environments where everyone can improve and go home healthy.

πŸ›‘οΈ Safety first
πŸ₯‹ Proper technique
🀝 Respect your training partners
🧠 Smart instruction

It's a mess, I know.

My goal is to build the most comprehensive BJJ encyclopedia anywhere β€” 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gyms, belts and nationalities are pieced together from public and community sources, so some of it is incomplete, outdated, or flat-out wrong.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 β€” every correction makes this better for everyone. This website wouldn't be possible without the community.
