To those who are unfamiliar with the world of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, the first thing you have to know is the core doctrine - that position is everything. Once the first concepts of the position are learnt, you can then use your skills to bring the fight to an end, thrust your fist in the air and claim victory.
John's first book is a concise step-by-step method about the basics of Brazilian Ju Jitsu. The strategy is based on the idea that you can achieve and maintain a superior position on a larger and stronger opponent. Position is all important, and before any finishing holds or chokes can be applied, you must first learn to move fluidly from one position to another without losing control of the opponent. Or in John’s words:
"As a submission grappling system, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu uses a myriad of chokes and locks to bring the fight to a conclusion, but all such attacks are useless until good positional advantage can be achieved and maintained."
"Fundamentals" is broken down into easy, progressive sections, so you can learn the moves and special techniques of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu.
