This is bullshit, when you are attacked you need something simple and
effective, best bet is to repeatedly punch his ballsack which will do
damage, and if you do break free and the bully doesn’t stop do punch him.
Otherwise I’m betting that bully is going to lie to get out and will be
right back on top of you the second you let go

Iron Aged says:

This is a good thing Rener Gracie is doing for the kids. He knows he can’t
teach an entire class of kids offensive techniques since some of them may
be the bullies they’re teaching the kids to defend from. So he keeps it
strictly defensive so he’s not giving the bullies too much information on
how to be aggressive. 

DeVon Carter says:

@ Bazarro44, try the art and you’ll know for sure that it will work in the
street, when you see this video, you’re thinking impossible but when you
actually take the class, it’s different and you’ll fall in love with it art

Jack Wong says:

its not a smart thing to tell kids to put somebody in a shoulder break when
they most likely dont know how to apply it correctly or how much force to
apply rather than some other safer techniques

TruePoizon says:

gimme a break. This stuff doesn’t work in the streets, its just a lame
“art” to get people to fight without going to jail, for those who clearly
hate life. No peaceful, positive, happy person would condone violence. Tell
me, are you going to keep someone in a choke or arm bar until the police
come? Nope. Tell me, what do you do if the person has a gun? You expect a
person with a brain to think shit-jitsu will beat a gun? It wont, even Jet
Li (the famous actor) said no martial art will beat a gun (unless youre
watching a movie lol). Truth is most people in the streets aren’t even
trained to fight, and u never see people in the streets doing anything
except throwing fists. The best art to learn in the streets is simply the
art of ball kicking and running lol. Again, good luck trying to keep
someone in a lock or hold until the police come. Or choking someone, and
then they turn around, hire a lawyer and say choked them when all they did
was “accidentally” run into you. This is the lawsuit capital of the world;
learn to kick someone in the nuts, run fast and have a gun on you….The
End. No need to partake in organized violence because you hate life and
want to choke people without going to jail lol. But hey, enjoy brain
damage. You know I used to be shy and timid too, I didn’t need to learn to
beat and choke people to make my life better. I did something called “grow
up” lol. Modern society is just too brainwashed to understand that.

Fantastic! A n excellent way to improve any kid’s confidence without the
use of excessive force. Great job.

VERY GOOD!

AbDoAsMs says:

Such a awesome dude. 

Swordsmansmith87 says:

The bully just learned that if he wants his shoulder joint to function
properly, he should leave you alone.

wildcat31772 says:

Most bullies are pussy’s once they lose the control in the fight.

MrMoAbdullah says:

That should be taught in all of the schools.. that’s a good confidence
builder.

AWilh1313 says:

hit a bigger, stronger opponent in the crotch from the bottom of the mount,
then come back and let us know how vicious the ensuing beatdown was

Dreama40 says:

Laith Mriesh says:

Great work rener ,this should be applied every where

Brigidare says:

Does it really matter ?

devolvedmutant says:

Those (now 5) people are the bullies that are bothered by their targets
learning to stand up for themselves. Great program, excellent vid.

Lukash636 says:

Nah it’s more for pain compliance. But if pushed too far it can dislocate
the arm

GenevaMode says:

No such thing. Bullies don’t last in a worthwhile BJJ school.

ElGutsano says:

Brilliant. I completely agree, being bullied around can completely ruin the
kid’s confidence- and that can be for life.

chunchoe says:

@chicabobica its all just practice practice practice man , and wether its
your style or not

ChamorruWarrior says:

This program is for kids ages 8 to 12 years old. I cannot picture a 8 to 12
year old kid either being knocked out or being able to knock someone out
cold. Or having another kid not giving up to the point of their shoulder
dislocating from it’s socket. I just cannot imagen that. If you’re talking
about HS or even Middle school maybe it’s more serious. But this program is
for young children who most likely do not have the skill or strength to KO
someone, or the ego to get their arm broken.

slobs311 says:

This dude has the right type of energy to teach kids! Great job, Rener!!!

Mihawk eyes says:

not really people that become the bully will not have a open mind like a
good mind they will be much smarter cus u think ur the best when ur not the
other guy is just be him self annd also all it takes is a gun a kid that
gets bullyed bring a gun ur dead bullying is for the weak

Great job. Would love to discuss with you in person and share with you a
hopefully better technique, especially for kids and women…
