This is one of those phrases you hear all the time, but it really is true. Learning jiu-jitsu takes time, and while some people enjoy rapid success and seem to pick it up quickly, for most of us it’s not that easy.

It’s a fascinating look at how a high level pro introduced a new technique into his game, and then tested it against varying levels of resistance until he was able to use it on the world stage.
