BJJ 101 - Back Control

We're back... get excited for the second issue of our "BJJ 101" blog series, where we discuss some of the most critical information about jiu-jitsu's fundamental positions and techniques. It doesn't matter if you're a seasoned submission hunter - or you just fancy yourself as one - positional dominance is paramount to your success as a jiu-jitsu competitor and practitioner.

In this blog post, we’ll explore the essentials of the back control position in jiu-jitsu, including a basic overview of the position, key principles for maintaining control, and some common submissions from the back that you’ll want to add to your toolkit.
