BJJ Flowchart

Visualizing how techniques flow and fit together is crucial, not only for 9-to-5 hobbyists but also for savvy jiu-jitsu competitors.

In the beginning, when you don’t have a big box of tricks, it is easy to remember a few moves. But once you need to have a full gameplan with many possibilities, your mobile phone notes won’t be enough.


A flowchart is a way to express your gameplan. Here is the definition:

This is a simple diagram to show a sequence you’ve drilled many times: Armbar ==> triangle, triangle ==> Omoplata

Please note: There is no magical way to learn BJJ. Nothing replaces a good training session. Our goal here is to provide tools to help with the learning process.
