Not just techniques.
Every lesson Renzo and his black belts ever filmed — rebuilt into structured programs you actually finish, with progress tracking and search that understands jiu-jitsu, in English and Portuguese.
What changed
The same mat. A better academy.
Programs you finish
Each series — Renzo's Guide to Submissions, Kimura New Concepts, Jean Jacques in NYC — is a course with ordered lessons, progress, and a clear end.
2017: a video grid you scrolled until you gave up.
A curriculum over it
Every lesson is tagged by position from nine years of teaching. Study plans — the Guard set, the Side Control set — come next, in the order a professor would teach them.
2017: categories existed; a path through them didn't.
Ask the library anything
Every lesson is transcribed. Search “arm drag from butterfly” and land on the exact moment it's taught — in English or Portuguese.
2017: search matched titles only.
In your pocket, offline
Native iPhone and Android apps follow the new site — download a program, drill at the academy, progress syncs when you're back online.
2017: a website on your phone.
Ask the library
Results come from what the professors actually say on the mat — each hit lands on the moment it's taught.
