Description
“Vale Tudo” means “anything goes.” Here’s why this Vale Tudo knowledge is so important for anyone who practices Jiu-Jitsu for MMA and self-defense:
These days, Jiu-Jitsu isn’t often trained with strikes.
Typically people are taught in a fractured way.
Jiu-Jitsu for submissions, wrestling for control, and some form of boxing, kickboxing or Muay Thai to handle the stand-up game and deal with strikes.
Well, it wasn’t always that way.
When I learned Gracie Jiu-Jitsu from Rickson, we trained with strikes often enough to build real skill, not only in defending strikes, but how to use strikes to open up opportunities for submissions that wouldn’t be there otherwise.
Or, how to use strikes in the context of Jiu-Jitsu to end the fight fast (you won’t believe how powerful elbows can be from the gift wrap position, until you feel it for yourself. It’s like the first time you fire a gun. No joke.)
In fact, every summer we would take off the gi and train with elbows, knees, headbutts… you name it.
If you’ve never trained this way, you will be utterly amazed at how your world opens up, what is possible in terms of controlling and predicting a fight – once you can use strikes effectively to force your opponent to react.
This knowledge is so rare – you can watch any professional MMA fight from any promotion, and even among the Jiu-Jitsu experts, you won’t see most of this even attempted.
Why?
Because there was simply never anyone before Rickson, and there hasn’t been anyone since Rickson, who has explored the potential of Jiu-Jitsu and developed it as a complete martial art so deeply.
Not even among the other Gracies.
And knowing both skills – how to dominate with strikes, and to stay safe from strikes as you advance your position and set up submissions – gives you a level of invincibility few will ever experience.
That’s why I’ve put together a 4-part seminar system called “How to dominate with strikes – the forgotten Vale Tudo techniques of Hidden Jiu-Jitsu that allow you to control and predict any fight.”
The way I see it, there are 4 critical positions where strikes really count and make the difference in a grappling context:
The Mount
Cross Side
Open Guard
Closed Guard
Obviously strikes are important from the standing position, and there are other places strikes can be useful, but these big 4 give you such a tremendous advantage I had to focus on them first.
Here’s what you’ll find in each seminar:
Seminar 1: Mount and Cross-Side Dominance – 34 Videos – 118 mins
Originally, Jiu-Jitsu was an art practiced to defeat practitioners of every other martial art.
So we trained with strikes.
A lot.
And, when practiced this way, Jiu-Jitsu allows smaller, weaker individuals to completely dominate bigger, stronger more athletic opponents, even when the rules are “anything goes”.
I fought many bare-knuckle challenge matches, even from my white belt days, and I assure you, when practiced correctly, Jiu-Jitsu will win the day against all comers.
This seminar takes you back to those roots, and teaches you how to be offensive with strikes from the two most powerful ground positions in MMA, the mount and cross side.
Here’s what’s inside:
Intro
Basics Mount Maintenance
Walking the knees up from the mount and using side mount against bigger opponents
Dealing with pushes from the mount
Maintaining the mount when they throw both legs up
Maintaining the mount when they sit up to throw you off
Pros and cons of mid and high mount
Preventing the elbow escape once they catch the ankle and turning them with punches
Breaking bear hug from mount
Setting up the gift wrap
Throwing elbows from the gift wrap
Using the elbow with the Americana
Stabilizing the back mount and going for the rear naked choke
Turning towards the legs to get the far side underhook
Preventing guard recovery once you have far side underhook
Transitioning to the mount if they catch the ankle from crosside
Pumeling the elbow in to get the far side underhook
Using elbows and knees from crosside
Transitioning to top side cruficix
Closing
Seminar 2: Mount and Cross-Side Defense – 30 Videos – 86 mins
In the first seminar, you discovered how to completely dominate from the mount and the cross side with strikes.
If you’ve practiced those techniques, you have felt for yourself how powerful those positions can be, and how quickly someone can be just about “dead” once they’re there.
So in this seminar, you’ll learn how to escape these positions fast, so you can avoid the danger you now have a working knowledge of.
Plus, you’ll be able to turn the momentum of the fight in your favor.
Not just physically, but mentally, it’s hugely demoralizing for your opponent when they think they have you finished, and suddenly you’re able to easily escape and take the top position, and put them in danger.

Seminar 3: Open Guard – 24 Videos – 155 mins
Using the open guard is all about managing the distance.
When you learn the hidden details about how to do this right, a whole new world of strikes, sweeps, and takedowns will open up for you.
One of the most important qualities of this particular way of playing open guard, is you will ALWAYS be safe from strikes.
This is not the case with any other way of playing open guard I know of.
But even while you are safe from strikes, you will still be able to strike your opponent.
Creating distance to stay safe
Using strikes and switching sides
Switching sides and using the scissor sweep
Drill to develop the scissor sweep
BONUS: Preventing the hook sweep when mounting
Arm bar from arm on top of the leg
How I started to develop the scissor sweep
Kimura from open guard
Grabbing the wrist and taking the back
Using thigh strikes to set up the scissor sweep
Using kicks and standing up in base
Weekend closing and Q & A
Seminar 4: Closed Guard – 19 Videos – 87 mins
The Closed Guard is the position that made Jiu-Jitsu famous.
It’s also the position that wrestlers and other heavyweight MMA fighters love to exploit by dropping bombs and trying to knock Jiu-Jitsu players out from.
In this seminar, you’ll learn how to use the Closed Guard when strikes are in play.
Not only to stay safe, but how to use your own strikes from Closed Guard.
You’ll also learn one of the greatest strategies ever devised from the Closed Guard, called “The Trap”.
The Trap forces your opponent into a “heads you win, tails he loses” scenario, which also makes it impossible for your opponent to stand, lift and slam you.
Intro
Controlling your opponent from the closed guard and preventing damage
Using heel strikes from the closed guard
Triangle set up from the closed guard and using elbows
More elbows from closed guard and Kimura set up
Using the sweep when they try and get back to the center
Closed guard Vale Tudo drill
Preventing opponent from picking you up in closed guard
The trap from the closed guard
The arm attack series from the trap
Transitioning into the triangle from the trap
Closed guard closing
With these 4 seminars, you’ll have all the knowledge you need to be dangerous from any of these 4 positions in an MMA or “anything goes” fight.
Plus, you’ll know how to stay safe in these 4 positions, if someone is attempting to use strikes against you, so you can quickly escape and take the top position, and turn the momentum of the fight in your favor.
If you have the motivation to really learn and own this knowledge, to make it your own with dedicated practice, you will have such an insane advantage over anyone you know or train with to absolutely DOMINATE a fight when strikes are in play, it’s almost silly.
I mean you will laugh at just how much control you have and how helpless your opponents are to stop you.
This course is designed to be as simple, easy and convenient as possible.
You can watch these videos on any device, anytime you want.
You can rewind, pause and rewatch whatever you need, as many times as you need, on your own time, in your own space.
The videos are recorded in HD, and you can ask questions or comment on every video.
I will personally answer any questions you have (as my schedule allows), and you will have lifetime access to future updates, which I post often, to all my courses, in response to your feedback.
Like I said, sharing this incredible knowledge has become my life’s work, and it makes me truly happy to hear stories about how this knowledge changes lives for the better.
I’m not sure if you can imagine a couple months from now, after you’ve taken the time to really practice and hone your skill, how great it will feel to know it’s damn near impossible for anyone to defend against your strikes, and especially your submission set ups using strikes.
And when they do, you’ll have such a deep understanding of all this, you’ll know exactly what to do to fix it quick.
Plus, you’ll be completely confident you know how to stay safe from strikes in all 4 positions covered in the seminars.
I hope to hear your story soon, of how this knowledge has helped you, changed your understanding of jiu-jitsu, and made everything effective and easy for you.
Few things make me happier than to know my work is changing lives, keeping people safe, and giving them a sense of power and confidence they didn’t even know was possible.
