Advanced Positional Control In BJJ

It’s one thing to know the moves. It’s another to truly control a match.

At Definitive BJJ, students across Greater Vancouver are learning that real progress in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu doesn’t come from flashy submissions alone—but from understanding how to control position, dictate pace, and make transitions with purpose.

This isn’t beginner BJJ. It’s the kind of training that shapes competitors, tightens up the game of seasoned blue belts, and challenges even the most technical black belts.

Where Technique Becomes Timing

Spend a few minutes watching a class at Definitive, and you’ll notice something right away: the details matter. Whether you’re working on mount control, escaping side control, or transitioning to the back, instructors are constantly showing how timing, weight distribution, and anticipation are just as important as knowing “what comes next.”

It’s not about memorizing steps—it’s about developing instinct through repetition, feedback, and live resistance.

What You’ll Learn: The Real Foundations of Dominance

Here’s a glimpse into the kind of positional work being emphasized at Definitive BJJ:

  • How to pin opponents effectively without gassing out
  • Ways to chain transitions from guard pass to mount or back take
  • How to maintain control under pressure, even against aggressive scramblers
  • Subtle hand and knee positioning to shut down escapes
  • Positional strategies that set up high-percentage submissions

The training is structured, but never rigid. You’ll go through positional drills, situational sparring, and full rolling—all focused on making sure your transitions don’t fall apart when it matters most.

Who’s It For?

This type of training hits the sweet spot for a wide range of students:

  • Intermediate belts looking to build real mat confidence
  • Advanced students tightening up their game for competition
  • Instructors-in-training who want to refine how they teach position-based Jiu-Jitsu
  • Anyone tired of “rolling just to roll” and ready to train with intent

People come from Burnaby, Vancouver, Richmond, North Shore, and beyond to be part of this kind of atmosphere—where the goal isn’t just to move, but to move intelligently.

No Fluff. Just Real Progress.

There’s a quiet confidence to the way Definitive BJJ trains its students. No big egos. No gimmicks. Just solid coaching, a tight community, and a clear focus on what really wins matches: control, timing, and smart transitions.

So whether you’re prepping for a tournament, looking to fix holes in your game, or simply ready to train at a higher level, you’ll find the instruction here sharp, patient, and tailored to what actually works on the mat.
