So last night at my parkour/"urban gymnastics" class there was a guy who as he said, "was into the bjj." I just kept my mouth shut and let them all marvel over the bjj guy. He started trying to teach people takedowns and takedown defenses before grappling during the open gym/mat time.
Still i steeled my tongue because fuck that, I'm there to learn parkour. Until. UNTIL i saw him try to teach a counter to a no gi tomo nage. Yes, NO GI TOMO NAGE. The counter you ask? A cartwheel. Yes. A cartwheel. Then he began to teach some amazing crappling. I corrected the tomo nage counter but decided to let this youtube blue belt spread his false litany.
So what the fuck bjj, why is quality control so sloppy.
