7 Ways to Transform Your Jiu-Jitsu Using Online Resources

But first – do you know the story behind the origins of modern Jiu-Jitsu?

The legend goes that Hélio Gracie – the founder of the system of Jiu-Jitsu we train today – suffered a lot of illnesses when he was young. This made training more difficult for Hélio than for his brothers. He spent much of his time watching his brother Carlos teach. But Hélio couldn’t train at the same intensity.

One day Carlos didn’t show up for class at the expected time. His students were left waiting for him to show up. While they waited, Hélio decided to teach them what he knew. Just from watching his brother’s classes, Hélio was able to perform and teach the techniques he had watched Carlos teach over the years. However, because he was weaker than Carlos, he modified them to make them more efficient and easier to perform.

This – according to the legend – is how modern Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu was created.

It’s an inspiring story. Literally, the origins of modern Jiu-Jitsu! What’s most striking is how Hélio learned just by watching. Over many years, he absorbed the details and was able to adjust it to his body type and strength. That’s why it’s important to study Jiu-Jitsu off the mats. And these days, there is a lot of choice in terms of online Jiu-Jitsu platforms.

Below are 7 ways to transform your Jiu-Jitsu using these online resources:

1. Learn from world-class instructors – anytime, anywhere

One of the greatest advantages of online resources is access to top-tier coaching. Platforms like Atos BJJ On Demand provide exclusive content from legends like Andre Galvao, Andy Murasaki, Rolando Samson – and more. Imagine having a personal masterclass with a multiple-time Jiu-Jitsu World Champion right in your living room. Whether you want to refine your guard game or master intricate submissions, online courses let you learn directly from the best, at your own pace.

2. Rewind, pause and perfect your techniques

It’s easy to miss small details during demonstrations in class. Yet with videos online, you can replay techniques as many times as needed. 

This ability to study and break down moves frame-by-frame ensures that you don’t overlook the finer points of the technique. Over time, taking note of these small adjustments will make a huge difference in your performance.

3. Structured training for every skill level

Whether you’re a white belt learning the basics or an advanced competitor polishing complex techniques, online resources offer drills designed specifically for your level. 

Structured programs guide beginners through foundational skills while offering advanced athletes new ways to challenge themselves. It’s like having a roadmap for consistent improvement.

For example, the search filter on Atos BJJ On Demand allows you to tailor your learning to your level, your preferred instructor and the techniques you’re most interested in mastering.

4. Expand your game with niche techniques

Have you ever wanted to learn lapel guards, leg locks or other specialized techniques not frequently covered in your local gym? Maybe it’s just not your instructor’s style, so he never covers it in class. 

Online platforms provide access to a broader spectrum of Jiu-Jitsu knowledge. These niche techniques can give you a competitive edge and help you develop a unique style that sets you apart from other practitioners in both your gym and local competition circuit.

5. Train smarter with situational analysis

Online platforms go beyond teaching techniques – they teach you strategies that work at the highest-level of Jiu-Jitsu.

You’ll learn how to analyze match footage, understand your opponents’ tendencies and develop a Champion’s Mindset. This holistic approach makes you a more well-rounded practitioner, prepared for any scenario.

6. Develop a champion’s mindset

Platforms like Atos BJJ On Demand have specific videos, seminars and challenges related to developing your mindset. 

As Andre Galvao says: “Training is 90% physical, 10% mental. But competition is 90% mental, 10% physical.” To perform at your best, you also need to develop your mind to become more resilient and focused in the heat of battle.

7. Follow along with weekly series

Weekly series are unique to Atos BJJ On Demand. Every week we upload a structured series of videos covering one position or technique in depth – essentially, subscribers get access to a new masterclass course every week

This allows you to “follow along” with the classes that are taking place at Atos HQ, taught by top professors such as Andre Galvao, Andy Murasaki, Rolando Samson… They teach the Atos system of Jiu-Jitsu – the same system which built incredible athletes like Kade & Tye Ruotolo, Sarah Galvao, Kaynan Duarte, Rafaela Guedes, Lucas “Hulk” Barbosa… And so many others!
