6 Techniques Every White Belt Must Master In Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Introduction:
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu is the most effective grappling martial art not only because of its techniques and submissions but also because it’s a chess match. It is all about mastering your next move before your opponent does. And that takes time. In this article, I will share with you some techniques which are fundamental in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu for White Belts to be able to survive on the mats as well as develop their skills so they can be Black Belts one day.
Top 6 BJJ techniques:
When I was a white belt, I was constantly looking for ways to get better. At times, it seemed that the path to improvement would never end. Techniques were complicated, and sometimes I just didn’t understand. But there is one thing I know now: no matter how good you are at Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, there is always something new to learn and improve on.
There are a few dozen different techniques that you can practice in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. But, if you’re a white belt, there are some that you should focus your time on learning and mastering. A lot of people think they can skip the basics. They don’t want to drill or learn the fundamental techniques of BJJ. Maybe they think it’s boring, or that they already know what they need to know. That’s not true at all. If you want to get good at BJJ, you have to start with the basics. You have to devote.

The Triangle Choke
The triangle choke is a submission hold that is commonly used in mixed martial arts. It can be applied from various positions, but most commonly from the guard position. The triangle choke is a dangerous and powerful maneuver. If it’s applied correctly and the opponent doesn’t tap, it will cause unconsciousness within seconds. The technique involves using one arm to apply pressure on the opponent’s neck, which causes them to lose consciousness by cutting off blood flow to their brain.
The Arm Bar
The arm bar is a commonly used submission in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and other grappling arts. It can be used from various positions and the transition to the arm bar is relatively straight forward. The arm bar is one of the more effective submissions especially for white and blue belts (and even higher) because it works for both gi and no gi. As you progress through your Jiu-Jitsu journey, if you maintain sound fundamentals, your arm bar attacks will become more effective. You should start to see the increase in submissions once you learn how to set up an inside trip or an outside trip
The Guillotine Choke
The guillotine choke is a submission hold, the name of which is derived from the beheading of French King Louis XVI by guillotine. The guillotine choke involves the simultaneous use of a standing (over-under) grip and a rear-naked choke. It is typically applied from a standing clinch and requires that the opponent’s head be pulled downwards in order to finish the choke. Variations include the “single collar choke”, in which only one arm is inserted between the opponent’s arms, and the “double collar choke”, in which both sleeves are inserted.
The Rear Naked Choke
Rear naked chokes are a great way to submit your opponents in a fight. They are relatively easy to learn, as long as you understand the positioning and mechanics of the choke. This article will cover the details of how to perform the choke, but it will also cover some basic principles of grappling. The rear naked choke is performed from back mount on your opponent. You have one arm under their chin, and one arm wrapped around their head. You then place your forearm under their chin, while trapping their opposite side arm with your leg. From there, you use your body weight to pull down
The Kimura Lock
The Kimura Lock is one of the most effective finishing holds in all of grappling. It’s a great submission, and it’s used by many high-level competitors in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. A good Kimura can end many fights, but there are several details that must be learned before you can execute it correctly. This article is a breakdown of the Kimura so that all of the details are clearly explained, making the lock easier to learn and use.
The Armbar From the Mount Position
The mount position is one of the strongest positions in jiu-jitsu. It’s an ideal position to set up submissions on an opponent. The mount can be established from different positions, and these transitions are important to know, especially if you want to move quickly from one position to another. The armbar from the mount position is a very powerful submission that you should definitely try to incorporate into your grappling game. It’s also a good idea to learn other submissions from the mount position, like the triangle choke and straight armlock.
