Are you looking to learn Brazilian Jiu Jitsu from the comfort of your own home? That’s not really how it works unfortunately. You really need to drill correct techniques ideally under the supervision of someone who can make sure you are learning the correct technique and not just developing bad habits. You also need to roll with people. Different people, of all different shapes and sizes, people stronger than you, faster than you, people with more expertise than you, as well with people new to Jiu Jitsu. This allows you to see what works in different situations.
However if you’re going to regular BJJ classes and rolling on a regular basis, then learning Jiu Jitsu online from videos can enhance what you are learning in your training. Many of the the world’s best Brazilian Jiu Jitsu coaches and competitors have produced fantastic videos available online for free. BJJ.TV collates the best of these videos for you to learn from.
