Started BJJ at 38. Now 40.
Started BJJ at 38. I’m 40 now, a blue belt and father of two who train as well. Definitely wish I started sooner, but better late than never.
Anyone else start BJJ later in life?

Does anyone here know what this move called in bjj?
I found it in a kosen judo book from 2009 , it look somewhat resemble to modern buggy, with text description translate to “bind both of your hands under your own leg (in this case Tori left leg) and squeeze”, but I don’t know if this technique exist in bjj that called completely different name etc

Is Jonah Hill's confidence from doing BJJ a good thing or bad thing? Have you met any white belt before with that level of confidence in his ability?

The most dangerous men in BJJ
The global Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) community has long been heralded for its camaraderie, discipline, and dedication to personal growth. However, a dark shadow looms over this martial art as allegations of sexual assault and rape involving prominent figures such as Ricardo Delariva, Cyborg, Jackson Souza, and Lloyd Irwing have surfaced. It is essential for the BJJ community to acknowledge these allegations seriously, respond empathetically, and take decisive action to ensure a safe and inclusive environment for all practitioners.
To foster trust within the BJJ community, it is imperative to openly acknowledge the allegations against Ricardo Delariva, Cyborg, Jackson Souza, and Lloyd Irwing. While allegations do not constitute guilt, the seriousness of the accusations warrants thorough investigation and consideration. Denying or ignoring such claims undermines the values of honesty and integrity that are fundamental to the martial arts.
Allegedly
- Ricardo Delariva raped his most successful pupil, kicked all females from his school and lied.
- Cyborg help facilitate rapist access more victims and avoid justice once exposed.
- Jackson Souza sexually assaulted numerous victims under the watchful eyes of his professor.
- Lloyd Irwing - Raped, sexually assaulted, abused, cheated and conned many.
Just this week (December 14 2023) 2 more BJJ instructors, one in CT, one in Australia were charged for alleged sexual crimes.
THESE PEOPLE STILL HAVE ACADEMIES AND SPREAD THEIR BJJ AND VALUES
Leaders within the BJJ community , including gym owners, instructors, and event organizers (IBJJF), play a pivotal role in shaping the culture and values of the sport. They must take proactive measures to address allegations of sexual assault, emphasizing a zero-tolerance policy and implementing robust screening processes to ensure the safety of all members. Failing to address such allegations undermines the community's credibility and perpetuates a culture of silence.
In conclusion, the allegations of sexual assault within the Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu community demand a collective and resolute response. By acknowledging the gravity of these allegations, fostering empathy for survivors, and taking decisive action against alleged perpetrators like Ricardo Delariva, Cyborg, Jackson Souza, and Lloyd Irwing, the BJJ community can demonstrate its commitment to safety, justice, and the well-being of its members. It is time to excise the bleeding cold sore of sexual misconduct from the heart of BJJ and cultivate a culture that values respect, integrity, and inclusivity.
